✭✭✭✭4Generally Harness Magicka is on 4, with 5 being Inner Light, and 1,2,3 being active skills, except Sorcerer, which has Hardened Ward on 3, Inner Light on 4 and Bound Aegis on 5; if I don't use Power Surge, that moves to 4 on back bar, so I can bring Crystal Fragments on front bar.Beta tester since February 2014, played ESO-TU October 2015 - August 2022, currently on an extended break

its why I have F as dodge!
I have 5 bound to a mouse thumb-button, so usually have 4 for buffs. 3 is a good spot for shields imho. (I have em in the same spot on both bars for my magsorc.Minalan owes me a beer.

✭✭✭OtherSquare (&Triangle in PvP) Circle is always the toggle/magelight slot skill. Except for tank, who uses circle as shield/armor.
Most used goes on triggers so I can still aim direction/move and cast at same time.
Configuration "C" on PS4 - triangle is swap weapons.Fear is the Mindkiller0 -
GaunterODim✭✭✭✭OtherSquare or L1 depending on if I have any longer lasting buffs on the bar like merciless or surge as i prefer square as my buff button.0

Really we do it without like, the musical instruments. This is the only musical: the mouth. And hopefully the brain attached to the mouth. Right? The brain, more important than the mouth, is the brain. The brain is much more important.11 -
