    How do you have your action bar set up as a ninja?

    I am only 32 but with the mudras and all other rogue attacks I would like to know how you have your bars set up. Please let me know thanks you.

    This is how I have mine set up. Important skills are linked to Q, E, R, and T since I can tap them with my index and ring fingers while I use my middle finger to hit W if I need to move forward and mudras are placed where I can get to them easily (using a logitech g600 mouse so I just have to move my thumb down to the last 3 buttons that way I don't accidentally hit any of the other buttons).

    5 keys able to do 15 actions with minimal movement and RTY to use non-combo skills. like the ninjustu cast and jug

    enjoy the stoned LB

    I would say it is a more of a general advise for all classes, but the main idea is - Use Shift and Ctrl modifiers and some additional keys like Q,E,R,F,G or similar. You can tweak keyboard layout somewhere in settings (can't say precise location now). I am myself use only 1-5 keys from numbers and the additional keys I provided earlier because they are easily reachable from WASD and Shift/Ctrl positions.

    As a Control Player I use 2 sets for it (and all my other classes so far)

    Set 1 Left side has the main GCD actions and offensive buff CDs
    Set 1 Right side has the mudras, kassatsu and defensive CDs.
    Set 3 Left side has the secondary GCD actions and other support CDs.
    Set 3 Right side has all utility CDs like Sukuchi, AoEing and Goad.

    Set 2 and 4 are meant for macroed quick setup stuff like chocobo stances or level synch (since I FATE a lot) and insta set me back to Set 3.

    From pressing Left Trigger -> Right Trigger leads me to Set 1 Left side
    Holding Right Trigger -> Left Trigger I get to Set 1 Right side.

    So most of the time Im holding both triggers in battle and weave between them, having only 8 skills on screen... should take some screenshots.

    1-5: Spinning, Gust, Aeolian, Dancing, Shadow
    Ctrl+1-5: Assassinate, Mug, Blood for Blood, Internal Release, Shukuchi
    Alt+1-5: Targeting macro, macro, macro, Kassatsu, Invigorate
    Shift+1-5: Ten, Chi, Jin, Ninjutsu, Trick Attack
    2 mouse side buttons: Mug, Jugulate
    Ctrl+mouse: Death Blossom, Goad (macro)
    Alt+Mouse: Second Wind, Perfect Dodge
    Shift+Mouse: Chocobo, Hide

    Poisons, Sneak Attack, Throwing Daggers, and Mantra are infrequently used, though Throw and Mantra are on 6 and Ctrl6 because they're less niche than the others. Really, I don't need the targeting macros or Hide, so I could rearrange things, but I'm used to this setup.
