Limit Break Action as "Duty Action 3" for reduced hotbar usage

[CrimzunAeoun]

Please consider creating an additional Duty Action(Duty Action 3/ Limit Break Action) that would function for the use of Limit Break.

Reasons for this additional button:
- Limit Break is an ability that all battle jobs/classes share , therefore having this ability tied to the Limit Break Bar as a Limit Break Duty Action would be convenient to save Hotbar space for all players.
- This Duty action can be tied to L2 + L3 for controller user (the same as the current duty action format)

I'm confused. You can already add the Limit Break to your hotbar as its own button. There currently is NO duty action 3 button. So... what are you asking for?

She's asking for it to be Duty Action 3.

Right, but why? You can already set it as a global hotkey.

I understand what you're asking, but the issue with this is, Limit Breaks are available everywhere. While Duty Actions are specific to the instance and only available to those that make use of it.
You're essentially asking for a 1x1 Hotbar 11, not Duty Action III.

Actually I am asking for the Limit Break UI Bar to become Duty Action 3 so that you can press the Limit break UI to activate limit break manually or with L2 + L3 on a controller or as a duty action 3 button

You can do that now though. You can assign the Limit Break action to a hotbar button and push it at your leisure. It is functionally identical to clicking the limit break bar, except more keybindy and less clicky.

I don't play with a controller so maybe there are control limitations I'm not aware of that are preventing you from doing this?

You can click on the limit break bar to use the limit break?

This is news to me. I always just used the provided action, set to a shared hotbar, with an easily accessible key binding.

As the King mentioned, limit breaks aren't limited to duties. They're usable in open world as well. Plus, they'd hafta go back to literally every single duty and modify it for this special generic Duty Action, for a system/mechanic that doesn't really need so much tweaking or adjusting.

Because you can just set up a shared hotbar with the action and set your own key bindings for it.

You dont understand, the request is to make the UI interface Limit Break Bar become the same as "Duty Actions" so that you could press the on the UI to activate the Limit Break or with a controller L2 + L3

also how can it be special and generic at the same time?
also dont you understand that UI elements can be turned off so not everyone like me has duty actions, or even limit break visible on their screen when they play.
so for LB to function using built in game default shortcuts, besides optional ways to place it on hotbars, will allow for freeing up space for different users on their actual hotbars

I think what people are trying to say is that a Limit Break is not a duty action because the only requirement is minimum being in a Light Party (as you can also use it outside of duties). It's possible that Duty Action is flagged to certain duties and it would be difficult to replicate for every other duty/instance. I thought about this with the Duty Gauge, why couldn't this be copied to all the older Primals during DPS/mob checks etc. Of course it's not necessary to do that but as a QoL it could be quite useful to have, no different to wait you are suggesting with the LB. Though I think it just comes down to there being certain restrictions to begin with, and LB action can be freely equipped on hotbars anyway.

also dont you understand that UI elements can be turned off so not everyone like me has duty actions, or even limit break visible on their screen when they play.

How do keep track of the LB then if you do not have the bar present?
