LostHorizon1933✭✭✭✭✭Funny. For some reason this made me think of FFXIV. On there, your weapon equals your class, so you never really change weapons in combat. But it had more bars than Folsom prison.2 -

✭✭✭✭✭It would likely be complicated to create a good design that works for consoles and PC. On PC we can easily set a keybind for each bar but the limitation of the controllers probably does not have room for such a design and what room it may have is probably best suited for something more significant for the game. Rotating among the three bars with one keybind would be a bad design.1 -
RisenEclipse✭✭✭✭✭I wouldnt want a third bar, but I WOULD like a 6th slot. We have more then 5 numbers on our keyboard... would it kill them to give us a 6th slot on each bar?10 -

✭✭Oh Old sorc how I miss you with your glorious third bar...
Sorc's third bar was amazing.
I don't feel like it made them OP by any means, was just awesome that they got that flexibility. I would have no problem with all classes having access to it. I guess it would go against the whole "deck-building" gimmick. I don't know if its important to them still in 2022, but its not to me. Gimme another bar!2 -
ixthUA✭✭✭✭✭I'd like to have quick bars (always active) for around 50 skills, like in other MMOs.
I'd understand 6 skill slots on a phone, but this is a PC game.5 -
M0ntie✭✭✭✭✭Its is a PC with controller support, and a console game.
Also unnecessary IMO, so no thanks. The combat is fast paced and part of the game is effectively choosing your skill bar combinations. The game has enough trouble with always allowing quick bar swaps and reliable skill firing as it is.
What we do need is the functionality to have all the assistants only take up one slot (bank, merchant, armourer, decon assistants). Perhaps make it so that you can quick slot an assistants "help desk" that when selected lets you choose which assistant to talk to.3 -
S0Z0H✭✭✭No, not until they fix bar swap issues between the two bars we have already. Try playing pvp or pve content of any type of intensity, and the bar swap just freezes and stutters.
So adding more would not be good. Maybe for some casual relaxing chill sessions, then I'm for any idea that would make things more fun or interesting sure.
But where things stand right now, I'm not against creative ideas like this but it's hard to support them when existing issues are very game breaking.2 -
noobfury✭✭✭I was just going to make a thread asking why we don't have a third bar and someone beat me to it.
Three ultimate's and not enough room for skills. I've never understood why.
A third bar would seem logical, any more than that would be too much.
I'm sure someone knows the " technical " reason why there's only two.noobfury earned the Eighth Anniversary badge.Thanks for sticking with us for 8 years. PC NA2 -
KingExecration✭✭✭✭They’ve horribly balanced it around 2. I think three would make pvp more like a Chuck E. Cheese dummy parse. Although the third bar should return to sorc along with a lot of old stuff that was removed push new classes.0

✭✭✭Does any one remember which UD they took away the 3rd bar?
We could find it and see what reason ZoS gave for removing it.
Maybe?

✭Maaaybe a 3rd bar.
But I would LOVE 1 more reg skill slot, so 6 + ult- "Some enjoy bringing grief to others. They remind M'aiq of mudcrabs - horrible creatures, with no redeeming qualities."

✭absolutely not!, sometimes the second bar doesn't even trigger, and you want to add another,3 -

✭✭✭Instead of two bars or three I would prefer to have just one bar going across the bottom or even two, one on top of the other, just not the swap thing.1 -

✭Sorc's overload bar was not that OP because of the limitations that came with it : you had to activate an ultimate to access the 3rd bar, you had to de-activate the ult to get off the third bar. when you were on the overload bar, you couldn't use any weapon skills. obviously, you could not have access to a 3rd ult.
but... it made the sorc class unique & we can't have that! balance or performance or something...NA Server [PC] -- Mostly Ebonheart Pact, Mostly.3 -

✭✭✭✭ZOS should allow displaying both skillbars at the same time, and I would like for ZOS to develop an automated barswap. I'm against a third bar, as this would increase the DPS gap between good and bad players even more. A third bar would also make choosing abilities less impactful, as we'd be able to use more.1 -

Grinding just make you go in circles.
Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.1 -

✭✭✭No. I can barely handle swapping the two we have when it actually swaps and I don't end up doing silly things like casting and recasting Barbed Trap like and idiot because I think I'm on my other bar casting my spammable.
At least I weave LAs between my traps but still... I just hope my group mates don't notice.Edited by Iselin on March 31, 2022 10:53AM1
