NIN QS help

[Synestr]

Hey all,

I have my rotation down, but having a hard time getting a good flow on my Quick Slots. The skills aren't lining up as well as I think they could.

Maybe some here would be nice enough to post what their set up is for their quick slots, maybe I am missing something simple to make it flow better. Now I seem to jump around a bit between skills. I have no screenie now but will upload one when I get home. For now, show me what you got and THANKS in advance!

By "quick slots", do you mean action bar? If so, your "rotation" will have a lot of impact on how you'd like it organized. We're currently trying to develop a set rotation HERE.


I use a Razer Naga mouse with my main skills on the number pad, so my layout looks like this;

--(NUM1)-----(NUM2)-----(NUM3)-----(NUM4)-------(NUM5)------(NUM6)----(NUM7)(NUM8)(NUM9)--(NUM0)----(NUM-)-----(NUM=)
Sinning Edge--Gust Slash--Aeolian Edge--Shadow Fang---Mutilate---Dancing Edge-----Ten-----Jin----Chi-----Ninjutsu---Invigorate--Death Blossom

For number keys, I have "Q" and "E" bound to where "-" and "=" would be and skills are in descending order according to frequency of use. ("A" and "D" keys are strafe left and right)

-----1---------2-----------3-----------4-------------5--------------6-----7------8---------9----------0-------Q---------E
Buff Macro--Kassatsu--Trick Attack--Second Wind--Perfect Dodge--Mantra--Goad---------Sneak Attack--Hide--Assasinate--Jugulate


I should also note that I have 2, and only 2, macros for NIN and those are Gust Slash and my Buff macro.

For Gust Slash Macro I have it tied to Mug for instant use upon cooldown and my buff macro is just a string of every DPS buff ability that I use across all DPS jobs.

Gust Slash
/micon "Gust Slash"
/ac "Gust Slash" <t>
/ac "Mug" <t>

Buff
/micon "Blood for Blood"
/action "Barrage" <me>
/action "Blood for Blood" <me>
/action "Hawk's Eye" <me>
/action "Raging Strikes" <me>
/action "Internal Release" <me>
/action "Life Surge" <me>
/action "Quelling Strikes" <me>
