BLM (controller) hotbar help

Thank you for the post~
Very insightful.

I also put role skills + limit break in my WXHB hotbar so that theyre mapped to the same spot in all the jobs i use without moving too many things around.

Out of curiosity why don't you have Sprint there too?

because i placed it there years ago and the muscle memory is too ingrained for me to move it now :/

Best hotbar space saving tip I have is to macro sprint to L3.

Set up a macro in slot 98/99 which is just:
/ac sprint
/ac sprint
/ac sprint
/ac sprint
/ac sprint

Then in your control config you can assign macro's 98/99 to any other button.
L3 is perfect because many games use this as a sprint function. If it's not already in your muscle memory from other games then its the best method to retrain yourself on.

You've now freed up a hotbar slot for every single job.

We can assign buttons to the thumbsticks!??!

You can assign basic control functions (like target, untarget, jump, etc.) or specifically macro slots 98 and 99.
So if there's any actions you want on them, they need to be done via macro.
