With new skills out, and with new skills more usable (like bosses that have anti auto attack buffs you can use skills. I never used to use garrot, swell, or stomp of the beast king. And for most skills i use my mouse and DO not cycle my skill bars.

Yes i know this might be noob! I have started to wonder how other barbs set up there skill bar.

Here is mine, (my wife i think changed the right toolbar)

I have a few pve skill macros on the bottom, auto attack. Before recent update i only had 5 human form pk skills (mighty swing, slam, bestial onslaught, penatrate armor, clean sweep) BUt i think more are worth using now, garrotte and stomp because of their low cast and cooldown, and yes swell because of Aoe!

This is how i play and for all non first row stuff i use just clicking. So i ask you guys how you have yours set up, and what you think the optimal way to set it up is?

    The number key department is exactly how im happy with it.

    The function key department is slightly messed up because skills fall into multiple categories or not all fits in 1 row.

    When i start bothering PvP i will need to do a bit of an overhaul
    Everything i write is from PvE perspective unless mentioned otherwise.

    Mine.

    1-3 vital skills quickly accesible from over WASD
    F1 - easy to locate for quick ninja looting!
    F2 - just above 1-3's for continous attack

    Top row for that "complex" gear switching.

    Gets slightly more complicated when I want to do something actively.
    8 > 3 >F3 >F4>F2

    Or in FS:
    One. Three. One. Three. *click on Stomp if happens to be paying attention*

    Genie skills asigned to Q, E, R keys.

    And they say barbs are a complicated class.

    PS. Yes. I have Fairy Boxes hotkeyed. That lazy.

    I wont provide the link but "`" button (right before number 1) swaps number pannel between first and last rows (if you were to expand the number paneel to the fullest)

    So I have two skills assigned at numbers 1,2,3,4 etc. Uppon switching to tiger mode with f1 I click ` and switch to tiger skills and vice versa.

    It is mostly useful in pvp when I can swap between tiger/human and use tiger/human skills with keyboard, while I use genie, pots, debuffs with my mouse.

    EDIT: Due to different keyboard layouts at different countries I cannot assure you that it is deffinetly button before number 1, however if it is not it can be changed by pressing K.

    I use 1-9 shortcut for potions.
    From top:
    1st row for tiger skill
    2nd for human skill
    3rd for PvP skill
    4th for buffs

    F1-F8 shortcut for random skill that i use lots of time (tiger form, spark, etc) and i change something for PvP or adding genie skills.
    Other columns are for switch aps/tank gears.
