[Suggestion][Customization] Tactical Magic Quickslots

In combat, I often use the same spells over and over (whatever the single direct damage or group direct damage spells best for my setup are, and maybe a buff or two that I use often).  It's frankly a pain to have to open the spellbook repeatedly to just cast this small array of spells.

My suggestion is to provide a quickbar just above the dashboard when a spellcasting sov/champion is active.  Each button would have the spell icons only from the spellbook, shrank down to a size that makes them legible, but not in the way of the rest of the tactical map. 

I can think of two good ways to populate the five buttons:

-Let the player drag spells from the spellbook down to the quickbar when it is open.  So my Sov's turn comes up and the bar is empty, or i want to replace a spell in it.  I open the spellbook, drag and drop the spell I want into slot 1, and close the spellbook.  Slot 1 stays with my spell of choice until I drag another spell over it an replace it.

-Just populate the 5 slots with the most used spells, in descending order of use.  I use fireball all the time?  It takes slot 1 and inferno takes slot 2. 

 

I could see the additional benefit of having the numeric values of the slots correspond to hotkeys to quickly select casting the spell as an action.

You good sir are exactly right. I would be surprised if they have not already planned this.
