Can't Decide if I want to use Controller or Keyboard/Mouse...

[Xenosan]

I started using controller just for fishing (vibrating controller while i stream a movie, hit hook/recast macro w/o having to flip back to ff14) Then started botany/miner with controller (kick back n recline)


Evantually moved into DoW/DoM with controller when I found the L+R trigger's 3rd accessible crossbar in character config (ie: hold left trigger, keep holding it and then hold right trigger as well to access a 3rd crossbar)

with a toggle for crossbars 1 and 2, plus the L+R triggers to access 3rd crossbar, felt i had as much keybind options as keyboard. just when bored I started laying actions down on the crossbars for jobs

I started to find some really interesting crossbar layouts that were a lot of fun, made me revisit a lot of classes i don't use as much anymore

Even my Warrior now, really liking it's crossbar layout.

Target cycling can be harder with controller imo, but it isn't an issue if ya manipulate the camera properly (tabbing only tabs through enemies visible on screen)

also, if holding down one of the trigger buttons and ya press one of the bumper buttons, that works the same as tabbing (and is a lot easier than using the dpad, becuase it lets you keep your thumbs on the joysticks).

tl;dr : the longer i use controller the more intuitive it becomes,

and my mouse is never far from my hand should i need it
