Does it matter which bar I have active when killing stuff? For example, if I know I have skills from a skill line that I want to progress faster on Bar 2, should I try to have that active when engaging enemies, when enemies die, or doesn't it matter at all?

Is it important to keep in mind when switching bars that skills placed from or the other cancel out on the swap?

That's not accurate.
If the skill on your bar has a buff for being on your bar (ie. bonus Major savagery for slotting Expert hunter), yes, you cancel the buff on swap.
If the skill grants a bonus on activation and for a given duration (ie. bonus Major brutality for activating Momentum), no, you don't cancel on swap.

Gotcha, I asked the question from the POV of a sorc who has only a pet on one bar, upon swap the pet disappears.
Thanks btw to you and Varanis for being so helpful.

All my magicka skills are on one bar. When I run out of magicka, I switch to my other bar with all my stamina skills.
When I run out of both magicka and stamina, I wait to die so I can respawn with full resources.
