Get rid of the hotbar pls

from Elemental Forums

I'm sure on paper it seemed like a good idea but it promotes terrible habits since people are too lazy or ignorant to keep it up to date. Remove the combat hotbar and put in its place a button for physical actions, a button for spells and a button for items. Have those buttons lead to a list sort of like they do now. Thanks

I didnt say people didnt use it. I said it causes more problems than its worth. Buttons with menus serve the same function and neither clutter up the ui nor confuse new players.

I'm confused. Aren't there buttons for combat actions (skills), spells, and items already on the bar? You even say so in your post, have the buttons lead to menus like the buttons do now.

You just want to take out the customized hotkeys?

I just wish I could right click one of the hotbar slots to put a new ability in there, instead of needing to pick skill/spell/item, then the specific thing I want, THEN where I want it to go. And if you screw up at any point during that you could accidentally be using an ability instead of changing which one is in that slot.
