Subject: Bardic inventory hotkeys


Since there's a thread about mapping inventory slots... thought I'd
mention a modification I plan to make...

Just bought a Dragoon Dirk for 20 pp (thanks list-folk for the tip)
which I plan to pair with my Combine LS when I hit 17 and get Dual
Wield. At that point, I'm gonna change my hot boxes to

Primary Hand (with Combine)
Secondary Hand (with Dirk)
Inventory slot 1 (with lute)
Inventory slot 2 (with drum)
Ranged weapon (empty)

Then to swap to an intrument, move the Dirk to the ranged weapon slot,
pick up the Combine and exchange it with an instrument, then put the
instrument in the Secondary hand...

Two benefits to this, one being I still get the Dirk bonuses when
I've got an instrument equipped, and second, I don't have to worry
about accidently filling the required top-level empty invnetory
box I needed previously for instruemnt swapping.

This is assuming I ever get my Piercing skill up to snuff. I need to
find somewhere quiet with blue critters about to practice on, since
in populated areas people keep trying to "save" me... heh.
