Looking For A Good MCH Cross Hotbar Setup ?

[Azures]

Anyone have a good cross hotbar setup they wanna share so far mine are medicore at best ??? any opinions

[AskaRay]

I'll take a screenshot of mine when I'm ingame...

Quick summary is I have [dpad] and [buttons] (so not the default) but when I hold down RT, it access my combo (on the buttons) and reload skills (on the dpad). Off GCD and buffs are on the LT so I have to minimally switch which trigger I'm holding down.
Turrets, etc. are on my extended crossbar so I can run + place them.

Still not the best set up to be honest and I'll probably change stuff around when I finish leveling but so far it's working.

I give you guys credit... I could NOT play this game with a controller. I have all my keys bound to my keyboard and make use of Shift, Alt on top of regular letters and numbers. I just can't see myself using all those abilities efficiently with a controller. That takes some skill.

Once you get used to controller you wonder how you lived without it before <3

Whoop sorry here's a crappy Paint edited pic of my crossbars:


Hypercharge is probably going on the extended hotbar, in that blank space.
Ricochet will probably go on the first hotbar in that far blank space.

Crossbar two is for AOEing.

Edit:
oh yeah, the "go away" macro is Blank + Foot Graze..haha

I highly doubt that. With the amount of keybinds I have there's no way I'd be able to play with a controller

Macro your cross class buffs into one button.

Boom, you've saved yourself 3 ability slots and have enough room for everything else just on 1 hotbar + extended.

Use the vertical hotbars to visually track the CD's of any abilities on the extended and you are golden.

No need to burden yourself with hotbar switches mid fight at all.

no, thats bad. very bad. you have space for 32 skills you can access easily, and 32 skills(including cross class). some of those skills you will almost never use for any reason(feint,haymaker, one ilm punch,) so you can remove the ones that wont be used, leaving more space. then there are the skills that are stances, mnk,nin,brd, and mch that dont have to be on the first cross bar.

edit: cross hot bar means they are playing with a controller.

Switching hotbars is also not that hard.. I mean it may take some getting used to but I can do it quickly.
