New to EA.. Assignment of skills/spells to hotkeys

[Rinoa Heartily]

Hello guys

I am trying to figure out how do you actually assign so many skills/spells to the hotkeys? There are only 5 slots for me? If i need to extend more than 5 how do i do it?

3+5(+2) - and that's it, unfortunately.

Maybe someone makes a mod someday ...

Until then a little "tactical thinking" is required - sometimes I simply tend to leave the skills menu open. :D

Drag & drop your fav skills from the skills menu into the little 3-slot skill bar (primary skills, keys 1-3) or the bigger 5-slot skill bar (secondary skills, keys 4-8).¹ Use keys 9+0 for health & mana potions (F5-F8 if you want to give potions to companions).

Note also that certain secondary skills can only be used in coexistence with particular primary skills (a skill is greyed out in the skill bar if it cannot be used).


¹) sometimes the GUI does not refresh immediately even if the skill has already been accepted (simply click on another skill to force a refresh).
