Hotbar ScreenShots

[Silv]

Was talking with Cici/Rirda about hot bar placement. Here is a screenshot of mine.

I tinker a lot with it and its still not perfect and I am looking for any ways which I can improve. So please comment/critique and I will do the same.

I time my buttons between auto-attacks so not to have one waiting when the bar is full so I do not delay the autoattack.

Pre-Buff
Buff with Green Combat +DA potion (15min duration)
Buff with Temp DPS Weapon Adornment to primary
(I would love to know more pre-combat temp buffs others use)

Pre-Pull
Gravitas at 10
Macro: Jael's + /autoattack 2 (on INC)

Combat
COB (on approach)
Macro: HO Starter + Banshee + Verlien's (while moving into position)
Debuffs (if Named)
Shroud > Misfortunes Kiss (because I have twelve tone earstone, if not switch with SoD)
Rhythm Blade
Bump > Scream of Death
Daro's
Darksong or Sinister (if Master'd race)
Bump > Scream of Death
Luda's
Howl
Macro: HO Starter > Tarven's > Thuri Thrust

Start smashing them as the come up with priority to highest DPS

Here is my setup. I use the same configuration for all my characters, generally 6 bars centered bottom of screen with the most often used ca's on the left three bars, buffs and spells I use less frequently on the right 3 bars. My detrimental spell window is directly below the raid window so I can keep an eye on it during hard fights without having to search all over my screen

Thank you very much Silv for the info. Now for me to create my own version. I know play styles are different but similar. So this shoul help me out. Presently with with my bladedance (str line). I dont have bump (agi line) which I do believe can make a big difference.
