Revolver Bar
New addition to AGE Shaiya, Oct 21, 2009
The Revolver bar allows you to set up skills so they can be used in rotation, one after the other. In it's initial configuration the Revolver has only three slots, but can be expanded so as to sequence up to six skills, though only three will be visible at any given time. Additionally, up to four different Revolvers can be configured. These extra Revolvers can be selected by using Alt+1, Alt+2, Alt+3, and Alt+4. The Revolver bar number is displayed on the left hand side.
| The Number is which Revolver bar is currently displayed |
| The Circular Arrow allows you to orient the bar either vertically or horizontally | |
| The R Button (between Circle n Y) resets the Revolver to its Start Action, as does pressing Alt-R | |
| The Y button opens the configuration area to add / remove skills or slots. | |
| The < and > at the top allow you to select which skill is currently keyed to R |
After clicking on the Y button, the Revolver can now be configured for number of slots present.
| The + adds slots, the - removes them |
| |
| |
|
Once you have the number of slots for that particular bar set, you can now add the skills to it.
| Simply drag and drop skills in the configuration slots just as you would for the normal hot-key bars | ||
| Once all the skills are in place, click Y again to close the configuration slots | |||
|
The revolver bar will stop once it hits an empty space and the smallest configuration is 3 slots. But what if you only want to queue up two skills ? The simplest solution is to expand the bar to four slots and fill the four slots with the two skills you wish to use alternating them ( i.e. Skill 1 / Skill 2 / Skill 1 / Skill 2 ).
Z / X Bar
New addition to AGE Shaiya, Oct 21, 2009
![]() | This bar is for potions only, freeing up to two spaces on another hot-key bar |
| Just drag-n-drop your potions here as you would have done for the regular hot-key bars | |
![]() | Just tap Z or X to use the new hot-keys |
| Once a slot empties, the Z / X Bar will automatically restock that slot with the same potion, if you have any |
