This is just an example, even though the Echo Buff has really trivialised it, but when Main Tanking Turn 5 as Warrior, I wouldn't want all of my cooldowns on one button for Death Sentences. Vengeance and Convalescence are two of your strongest cooldowns, and I wouldn't want to have to cylce through all of the others to try and get the one that I wanted. I always used to save Convalescence to help out the Healers in the event that I was hit by Death Sentence's healing received debuff, and could not jump into the Conflag (although with the Echo, I can't remember the last time I had to jump in...)

I also play on PS4, and the only macros I use are one for Provoke, to show a message in Party Chat that I've used it, one for Holmgang to do the same, and one for Berserk which counts down and gives a 5 second warning to my Healers about Pacification. They don't always manage to remove it, but its nice when they do.

On PS4, the extra Hotbar setting is your friend. If you go into the settings, you can select another Cross Hotbar to be displayed in two halves when you press L2 then R2 together, and vice versa. This is the best way I have found to fit all of my skills onto one hotbar, with the second Hotbar used for buffs and the like which aren't used as often.
