    PLD Crossbar Idea

    I'm hoping anyone could possibly share their crossbar layout for pld. I recently completed Turn 5 and I want to continue with endgame content but feel like my crossbar is lacking.

    since you specifically cited a "crossbar"' i think it's safe to assume you are on ps3/4. if this is not the case, let me know. for this the configuration of your hotbar is really user preference but here's some things to keep in mind:

    1. try to only use the right or left shoulder activation for the 80% of the skills you will use (your high enmity combo, flash, RoH). swapping the active shoulder side can lead to delays and missed/incorrect inputs.
    2. use the buttons instead of the d-pad for the afore mentioned skills. this will allow you to stay moblie (left thumbstick) and still attack.
    2.1 macro RoH over flash as an easy emnity spamm button (this effectively turns 5 skill buttons into 4).
    3. MACROS! research, experiment and augment as mush as possible with macros. you only have 8 buttons at any given time; get the most out of them. some easy ones include; placing all your defnsive cooldowns on a single button, and provoke/shield lob/fast blade on the same button....

    Have a keyboard with a keypad on it? Keybind those and set a hotbar above, below, wherever you prefer. There, another 12 keys in button reach. xD. Stumbled across this today fiddling around since I couldn't use those buttons in chat I thought hmmm.....let me try to keybind them and see what happens. Works. Just need to set one othe the main keys to another button, but it doesn't really matter if you are only using the keyboard to chat.
