3rd Skills Bar

Blade_07

I would love to have a 3rd skills bar for a different weapon and skills. It would REALLY shine well for vamp. or werewolf! I dont use werewolf because I have my main weapon and skills for that in 1st bar & the 2nd bar is for resto. staff or a bow. Those 2 setups are mandatory for me so there is no room for werewolf. So, I feel a 3rd skills bar is needed to make this awesome!

Yes, I would love to have a 3rd skills bar!

For convenience sakes perhaps just one bar that can be saved and exchanged so i don't have to drag all the different skills into it and out again. Leave it with the weaponswitch, just one extra bar to that can be added be exchanged with one of the weapons out of combat.

Werewolf already gives you a third bar

liquid_wolf

I dont give a rats rear end one way or the other.

Instead of a third bar, i'd like them to implement a saved profile option so I can swap between heavy/light tank/healer builds and equipment.

Wykkyd currently has an addon that handles it for me, but something in game would be nice. Something where I can make a selection, push a button, and a pre-configured set of skills gets moved in. As I said, wykkyd does a good job with his addon... so I don't really feel a pressing need for more bars...

Werewolf has its own separate bar.

Hmm, OK I will look into that. Thnx. ^^

Just as a small addition, Sorcerers can acquire a 3rd bar through the Overload ultimate ability. (:

I'd really like 2 bars with 9 skills in each. This would help sorcers immensely. Part of the reason Sorcs feel nerfed is that at least two of their five slots are filled by pets/magelight. A bigger bar would make the class much more useful.

I don't even like switching between 2 bars but do so when needed, adding a 3rd bar would just over complicate things for me.

I have thought of this before though, that I would like to be able to equip 2 complete sets of gear and skills (essentially 4 skill bars) just for convenience, for me it would be for having a complete pvp and a pve set up that I could easily swap between. I wouldn't want this to be something to could swap anywhere, any time. I think it would only work if you could only swap gear in town.

What he said works for me too..

Wykkyd's addon is decent but I'm always afraid I'm going to accidentally deconstruct or vendor my other set of gear that's sitting in my inventory.

System is good.
It is built in such a way so you CANT be prepared for every encounter in pvp.

And that is a good thing.

Shehriazad

There are multiple ways to basically gain a 3rd skill bar....but of course that's not for everyone.

No. It diminishes importance of choice. The whole reason we have such a limited amount of ability slots is to force us to make decisions about what we think is most important to our build and forcing us to specialize. Adding more slots diminishes potential build diversity as well. If you want a 3rd bar use overload or become a werewolf.

I don't really need another bar, but would like to get rid of the stupid "wheel of fortune" potion bar and just slot pots like skills. I can't tell you how many times i've eaten worms trying to select a pot.

You say sorc is nerfed, yet I see a friend of mine who plays sorc out dps a lot of people.

3rd skill bar coming soon for 4000 crowns

I don't even like to switch bar. i slot one bar for buffs another for actions.
and op you should try werewolf.

It's nothing to explain...it's a bad idea.

Guess you want a third weapon swap and dual spec skills too?

I like the challenge of diversifying a build... However ZOS needs to help us by making the decisions tougher with better abilities than just 5 or 6 per class

And precisely five abilities you can slot on it and use.

I think Overload triggers another bar as well, though I'm not 100% sure.

The limited number of active skills is one of the things I really like about ESO. I played games where combat feels more like "just click the right sequence of skill buttons until you win or respawn", and I can't say I liked that very much, the limited number of skill slots making you think beforehand I encountered here in ESO was a refreshing change, and I for one hope they never change that!

As for 3rd slot... I much rather have only two weapons to swap, "one or the other" after all is easier to manage when things get hectic then having to remember if your bow is now the firat or second swap button click away from what you're using right now...

Oh, and BtW... WW already switches to a "third" skillbar when you transform, one containing only doggie skills...
Overload doesn't though, that one just kina replaces would weapon light/heavy attacks for the duration...

runagate

Yes, I would love to have a 3rd skills bar!

I can think of quite a number of people who do not, or barely ever, use their second skill bar. Which baffles me. I completely rejiggered my DK today, including all CP, for a Syrabane/Elf Bane set build, and couldn't help but think I wanted to use 7 or so more skills situationally without having to get out of combat all the time to swap them out.

If you want more skills, ask for the 1-5 bar to have more skills on it.

xTG

No, I would hate a 3rd skills bar! (Please explain why.)

I play mainly on my first skill bar.
The second is for healing in dungeon.
So no, i don't need a third bar.

But i don't like MMO where you have the screen full of skill bar...

ItsGlaive

Two is enough

LameoveR

I already have 3rd skillbar.

Knootewoot

No, I would hate a 3rd skills bar! (Please explain why.)

2 is enough. 5 skills per bar+ ultimate is enough.

See above for my reasons.

Try "Swap" (the addon). Its exactly what you want.

wOOOOt_of_SD

No, I dont like switching, its complicated, malfunctions in pvp lag and a 3'rd would be terrible.

But 1-2 more slots on bar 1 and 2, would improve the gameplay for me.

There are sorcerers without any pets. Make decisions like everyone else. That is the beauty of ESO. Having more desirable skills than you can slot. This also prevents a clone war army.
