Ring Menu

Ring Menu

 

The ring menu allows you to quickly access and use many features of the game, such as skills, menu options, items, guild skills and social actions.  

 

Accessing the Ring Menu

 

The ring menu can be accessed by pressing one of the 4 directions on the D-pad or by holding LT/L2 and pressing one of the D-Pad directions.

 

If there are multiple actions on one of the rings (ie: up on D-Pad), then you can select an option in that menu by simply drag the right thumbstick to your desired selection and release. If there is only one action on a ring, that action will be used immediately (quick slot).

 

Customizing the Ring Menu

To customize the ring menu, you must first press the start menu and navigate to the ‘Ring Menu Settings’.

 

 

The contents of your ring menus are completely up to you. You can set up to 8 actions to each part of the ring menu, allowing you to in total add 64 actions to the Ring Menu.

 

 

By placing only 1 action on the ring, it becomes a quick slot, allowing you to use that action immediately as opposed to opening a ring menu.
