You can go to settings so that you can use L2+R2= 8 slot for extra abilities.

I only have to manually switch cross bars when I need to LB

Wait, there are people who didn't jump on the secondary cross hotbar like it was the greatest thing since the cross hotbar itself? It should be standard equipment for everyone using a pad. That and L1/R1 targeting.

On the subject of Mudras, I have them all mapped to the D-Pad on my secondary bar (Ten up, Chi down, Jin as both left and right), with the Ninjutsu skill itself as "up" on my primary bar, for easy Fumas/Futons.

I sometimes have to use the Monster Hunter Portable "claw" grip to dodge and Mudra at the same time, but that's a natural motion for me at this point.
