How often do you change up your hotbars?

[Makeda]

My keybinds for FFXIV were more or less set back around 2008 0r 2009 in WoW.

As in, to aid in physical memory, I have been using roughly the same purpose finger presses as I can across many different MMOs. The spot my fingers reach for my main spamable attack is the same here as it is in WoW, ESO, and even League of Legends... My primary location to switch to AoE is the same, my interrupts are in consistent spots, and so on. And then a few details move around here and there because of the number of things different games or classes need me to keybind.

For a while I was playing on a Mac, and I use a Razer Nostromo / Orbweaver / etc keypad - and Razer deleted it's software support for Mac, so I could change any of the keybinds on the pad. So instead all my games had some crazy wild keybinds so that I would be pressing the same same keys as always, across all games, but still able to use a keypad that had no driver support...

(Until the day I learned that a Mac running windows in bootcamp runs faster than a Mac running it's own native OS...)

Now I'm on PC fully and yeah - still using the same basic layout I made for myself more than a decade ago. The less you need to retrain your fingers, the faster you can react.
