So I am on PS4 and using the Cross Hotbars.
what's the best way to lay out my Crossbars for a Healer?
as a Tank and DPS, I've got my skills laid out pretty nicely, but for those, it's pretty easy to figure out, since everything that isn't a cooldown is a damage skill.
the way all my characters are set, I use Cross Hotbar 1, 2, and 3 for job-specific skills. . 4-8 are shared among all my jobs.
I have all my main attacks on my right crossbars front and back. Back bar is R2+L2. I use my front right Crossbar (R2) do my main attacks, and use r2+l2 to bring up my back right crossbar for additional ones. I use front left crossbar for cooldowns and class mechanics(i.e. Mudras, Cards, etc.), and my back left crossbar for cooldowns and lesser used skills. my class mechanics are generally always on my front left face buttons (L2 + Triangle/Circle/Square/X), and my main cooldowns are always on my front left D-Pad (L2 + Up/Down/Left/Right).
Hotbar 3, the entire thing, is for PVP skills on the left side, and Potions/Out-Of-Combat skills (like Gauss Barrel/Turret Retrieval/Stealth/Stances/etc.) on the right. Hot bar 3 is set as my expanded cross hotbar (double-tap L2 or R2)
now that is generaly how I do it on my DPS jobs.
on a Healer, I have heals, damage, and cooldowns. which adds a wrinkle to this that I'm having a little trouble figuring out.
so I am wondering, do I put my Heals on the front bar, and damage on the back(L2+R2)? do I do it the opposite way? do I mix the two (i.e. heals on the face buttons, damage on the d-pad, and vice-versa)? what's the best way to lay out my skills on my hotbar to ensure I have the easiest access to the skills I need the most?
