<div>I just can't seem to find a organized way to layout all of my hotkeys..I was thinking maybe a soloing bar then a group friendly one then maybe a pvp friendly one?</div><div> </div><div>Also is there a shortcut to changing the bars quicker that hitting the up and down arrows on it?</div><div> </div><div>Thanks in advance for any advice you can lend.</div>

Good question.I keep four hotbars open at all times and I still can't seem to organize them in any sensical way.I think I should keep just two open, for combat / buffs / macros, and scroll through for the rest (Call, Harvesting, /yell, infravision, etc).<div></div>

I use 4 hotbars as well.  I have the top row filled up with damage attacks, from single target DD's and debuffs to the AOEs, beginning with my melee auto attack button.  Second bar is the ranged auto attack, taunts, and damage buffs.  Third bar starts with my HO starter and has perma buffs, stances, and defense buffs.  Fourth bar is kind of misc, I keep all my odd abilities there like Unyielding Will, Vision of Madness, and Bind Wounds, Intercede, and some of my master rage buffs as well as my sprint and yell buttons.<div></div>

I only keep 2 hotbars visible.  I have about 7 setup with combat arts, macros, equipment, and potions.  I prefer using the keyboard over the mouse and I've tried to put some thought into what keys are under my hand when I have to use the mouse (mouse in left hand, so movement keys changed to be on the right side of the keyboard, and hotbar shortcut keys available are 6-0, '-', '=' as well as the default autoattack '`').  You can easily change the primary hotbar with the Shift-# shortcut (Shift-1 is the first hotbar, Shift-2 is the second, etc) rather than using the scrollbar.  It doesn't even need two hands if you like using the mouse.  You can easily change it to just the # or some other keys in the configuration options.  The shortcuts for scrolling through the secondary and tertiary hotbars are Alt-Shift-# and Ctrl-Shift-# by default.<div></div>

<div></div><p>For me it depends, if I'm at work I play on my 21" Wide Screen, 1680 x 1050 - If I'm at home I play on my 32" LCD, 1280 x 768. (A lot less room I know, but I lay in the corner of my L couch with the screen at my feet, in my opinion it's the only way to play - soooo relaxing.</p><p>As for hot bars, I play with 8. I'll post a screenie when I get a chance.</p>
