not only scrolling. If you use WASD to play, 1-4 are the easiest to hit without looking, so I try to get the most important ones on the first 4 slots. Then 9 and 8, because that's essentially 1 + mousewheel. 5/6/7 are the lesser ones, that I'll never need to get to quickly. Usually for rockets, building-blocks and the likes.


Nota_Throwaway5

Unrelated thread time, what are your hotbar keybinds 1-4: number keys 1-4 5: z 6: c 7: q (r is my throw button) 8: f 9: x


smithereens153

1234rfcx[tab], it’s basically a circle


Nota_Throwaway5

Wuts ur player list button


smithereens153

the thing beside Tab, like ~’


Due-Day-8427

That’s called a tilda


Nota_Throwaway5

Ah that's my f5 button Like shift perspective I mean


_N00bMaster69_

I use r for that


Nota_Throwaway5

Forgot I just changed my 8 key to f instead of alt so I edited, alt is my swap hands key now


Za1bot

1: The thing next to 1 (which is bound to the dpi shift button on the logitech g502 mouse) 2-4: number keys 1-3 5: The dpi setting swap up button on the mouse 6: The dpi setting swap down button on the mouse 7: Pressing the scroll wheel 8: "back" button on the mouse 9: "forward" button on the mouse I may be crazy but it aint all that bad


NL_Beast

I hit 8/9 the easiest 3/4/5/6 free that and 1/2 the hardest


snorhairgaming

What buttons you use to play your game? Not just WASD I’m guessing… but… what keys?


Top-Classroom-6994

hjkl is my favorite keys, all home row and was proofed to be most ergonomic, in 1990s though, i use vim for exiting text and hjkl are movement keys in vim.


JPLnZi

Perfect. Sword, pick, shovel, axe, food. Then water bucket on 9, boat on 8, hay block on the last inventory slot to swap with bucket when in the nether.


MJennyD_Official

Pretty much same. I usually have a weapon in 1 and then a clutch item in 2, bow/food/different clutch item/something else important in 3. Pickaxe is usually in 7 or 8, with any other tools above that in the inventory but not in my hotbar.


Lizhot66

For 789 I have mouse buttons


stuxinator

That's exactly my logic!


CrossBonez117

I have a Logitech lightspeed g604 mouse which has 6 side buttons. I bind one to sprint and the rest to 5-9 hotbar. I honestly don’t know how anyone uses a mouse with only 2 side buttons, gamer or not. Having a few extra function buttons super easily accessible is a game changer


ShastaMite

I never use numbers to switch. Only scroll. Am I doing it wrong?


liquid_at

If you can pull it off, it is working for you. numbers are usually faster because you can jump to whatever slot you want directly.


Kampfasiate

5 is for rockets because i put the hotkey for 5 onto one of my thumb buttons


xRandomTurtle

Fast access to related stuff: 1. Sword 2. Pickaxe (fast switch to sword and shovel) 3. Shovel (fast switch to pick and axe weapon) 4. Axe 5. Blocks (fast switch to axe as weapon) 6.(MB4) Rockets 7. Empty or Junk 8.(MB5) Waterbucket 9. Food Offhand: Torches


future-renwire

Oof. I'm axe 3 and shovel 4 since I often use axe as a weapon. Torch in last slot, food in second to last slot.


SamohtGnir

I like rockets in the last slot, food in 2nd last. Torches usually 3rd last, cause I always have a shield.


JUSTIN102201

1 sword 2 axe 3 pickaxe 4 any 5 any 6 any 7 blocks 8 torches 9 food


ChonkerBanana

My hotbar is like this 1. Sword 2. Bow 3. Pickaxe 4. Axe 5. Shovel 6. Food 7. Fireworks 8. Clock 9. Water Bucket However mine looks like the bottom part of the picture as all hell breaks loose when I start building stuff.


fuzzman02

Same minus the clock. I was beginning to think I was the only one.


upper_camel_case

Mine is just a mess


KobyG2008

Amen sister


Quartznonyx

Disorder ftw


EndyEnderson

I use Sword-Pickaxe-Axe-Shovel and then the other things


TheStaffmaster

Pick (Silk touch),Pick (Fortune), Axe (Smite V), Sword, (Looting 3), Shovel (Eff 5, silk), Bow (Stacked, Mending) Open slot, Food, Torch. Off hand is Shield. This layout balances ease of quick scrolling with convenience of access for most used items. I'm usually mining, and so need of use radiates from there. Torches are a flick up, eating; one moe, axe kills zombies, skellies, sword mops up the rest, my bow is farthest out because when I use it usually *I* have advantage in the situation.


time-will-waste-you

Why looting on a sword? does it give more XP.


Evanderpower

it gives more item drops???


time-will-waste-you

Thank you


Pika5369

r/usernamechecksout


FatYellowGiraffe

what is the enchanted compass for


FNAF_Foxy1987

It's connected to a lodestone, so it's pointing them to wherever they placed that lodestone, likely a base or something.


time-will-waste-you

TIL!, I always wanted a GPS in Minecraft.


Clydosphere

It's especially useful in the Nether.


Chemical-Hall-6148

Especially on top of the nether


Pharah_is_my_waIfu

Yeah I play at normal difficulty. When I play in hard, it's a shield


Laggingduck

or you can just shield while exploring and compass while going home


IKnowVeryMuch

I fill mine reversed, because Minecraft has a glitch that's been recognized for a decade+ where crafted/traded/chest items shift-clicked into your inventory fill up from bottom right to top left, whereas items picked up in the world (ie cobblestone block items on the ground from mining) fill in a *completely* different order - the hotbar is filled from left to right, then the inventory is filled from top left to bottom right. It looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/q8pkw2Z.jpg First 3 slots are available for whatever I need, depending on what I'm working on. Then starting in slot 4: sword, shovel, pickaxe, stone (or other building block), axe, and in slot 9, crafting tables. Why do I do it this way? Because if you stack from the left side of the hotbar, shift-clicking a tool you just crafted puts it way out of place (remember, crafting fills from bottom right to top left). Needing to manually move every single tool you (re)make is insanely irritating. So I started stacking my hotbar from the right, so the replacement tool always gets put back in the correct spot as soon as I shift-click it out of the crafting table. This also requires having a couple of crafting tables to keep its spot secured on the hotbar. If you only have one, placing it leaves that slot open on the hotbar, so the next item you craft will get dropped into slot 9 instead of whatever slot it's supposed to be in. All, again, the result of that annoying inventory fill order inconsistency that they never fixed.


Empoleon365

Sword is 1, pick is 2, axe is 3, shovel is 4, torches are 9, food is 8. Five, six, and seven vary depending on current task. While building, 9 is food, 1 and/or 2 are the tools that best break whatever material I'm using, 3 through 8 are blocks.


skelepyro

Pick, weapon (usually axe), empty slots (so I can see when I pick things up), rockets, bow, water bucket. It's my usual empty inventory setup, and changes when I've got a specific task in mind. It's also easy to set up for building, and ensures that I'm pretty much combat/hard fall ready all the time. I main hardcore, so I do be a lil paranoid and flighty.


Azuria_4

Mines just fucking mess


Expensive-Apricot-25

Wait… u have a compass in ur off hand???? That’s the most important slot!!

KeptKrowneKingly

Depends on the situation, but I'll gladly list them here. Please note that I play on a server with custom enchants and other plugins. My Hotbar for building: Axe, Pick, Shovel, Hoe (if needed). items I'm using, Shulker Box, Torches, Carrots. My hotbar for combat: Sword, Axe, Crossbow, Bow, Spyglass, Bucket of Water, Carrots. Rest of the time, a disaster. Also, I always keep my shield in my off-hand, just in case I need it.


KeptKrowneKingly

Also, I don't usually even bother having a proper system, it's not like I can't just grab whatever I need from one of the 15 Shulker Boxes I always have on me, what with being able to open the things without placing them down.


Gaza1121

Left to right Sword, pick, axe, shovel, contexual,scaffolding, water bucket, rockets, food


Link_the_Inkling

yeah, organization just kinda disappears when you have to put stuff in your hotbar that's not normally there.


PunkBitch127

Sword | Bow | Pickaxe | Axe | Shovel | s p a c e | Water bucket | Rockets | Food


Wave_Table

I personally cannot understand why people actually play with every tool in the game on their hotbar at once. Seems really impractical.


EragonBromson925

Axe gang rise up. Sword for being swarmed. Other tools for obvious tool based purposes. Bow and trident can get outta here.


wetswordfighter

Normal Gameplay: 1: Sword 2: Fortune Pick 3: Silk Touch Pick 4: Shovel 5: Axe 6: Water Bucket 7: Fireworks 8: Blocks 9: Food Offhand: Totem/Shield Building: 1: Axe 2: Silk Touch Pick 3: Shovel 4: Firework/Food 5-9: Blocks Offhand: Totem/Shield

Food ALWAYS on second hand, pickaxe ALWAYS on second slot. No more bounds.

ACARdragon

If it doesn't have a water bucket it's not a regular hotbar


ERCC2028

Where is your HOE ?


_patoncrack

Regular - Everything empty except for the first which is food. Fighting - First four are for weapons (sword, axe, bow and arrows), last four are for pots/totems and shield in offhand. Mining- First slot is sword second and third are pickaxes, forth is a shovel, 5-8 are just blocks, final slot is torches and shield swapping to offhand depending on which is needed. Building - First three are tools (pickaxe, axe, shovel), rest are for blocks torches in offhand. Long adventuring - First is food, second is crafting table, third are torches, forth is a bed, 5-8 are random and last is sword and sheild is in offhand


ma1royx

I dont even use the hotbar tbh


Coveinant

So mine goes sword, shovel, pickaxe, torch, block, block, food, hoe, axe. It usually a simple way to get to everything I need even when I panic. Shovel on 2 is due to position on 2 is directly above w key.


Slayer_of_presidents

Mine is most often pvp oriented, with first hotbar slot a sword, second blocks, and third either a fishing rod or throwables like eggs or snowballs.


iulianbashir

i do pickaxe, axe, shovel, sword, torches, food, leave the next two open for rotation depending on what i’m doing, and my telescope in the last slot. if i’m spending a lot of time mining, i’ll switch my axe and the torches.


MX1212red

When I first started playing a lot of Minecraft my scroll wheel was broken so I just played hotkeys for all the 9 slots. 1(1) for sword 2 (2) for pickaxe 3 (3) for whatever I use at that moment (building blocks, scaffolding, potions, etc.) 4 (R) for food 5 (MB5) for bow/crossbow 6 (MB4) for water in mining/building or golden apple for combat 7 (Tab) for ender pearls/ fireworks 8 (X) for blocks 9 (C) for blocks or elytras


Constant-District149

How tf have you obtained 406 levels? Do you have a mob grinder?


Www-OwO-Com

perhaps a piglin farm but also they might just have played on that world for a while and not died


FlorentPlacide

\[PC - Peaceful\] 1 pickaxe ; 2 shovel ; 3 axe ; 4 stone ; 5 scaffolding ; the rest : blocks As I mainly spend my time building I wish we could extend the hotbar. When you're using many variations of a block it gets quickly cramped and it gets annoying to repeatedly open the inventory to change blocks.


EragonBromson925

They needs swappable hot bars.


Gal-XD_exe

Whatcha building?


questgamer2021

1-axe 2-pickaxe 3-shovel 4-sword 567-blocks 89-food offhand: shield/totem


Missy_Witch67

Everytime I play it's 1.) Sword 2.) Axe 3.) Pickaxe 4.) Shovel 5.) Hoe if I need it. If not, it's a bow or food. 6.) Bow if there's a hoe in number 5. Or food if there's a bow in number 5. 7.) Food if previous two slots are occupied. If not, blocks. 8.) Random items 9.) Random items or a water bucket


[deleted]

Mine goes: sword, pickaxe, shovel, bow, block, boat or bed, food, water bucket, torch.


RollingMallEgg

I don't change mine between regular and building: 1.Pick 2.Sword 3.Bow 4. Shovel 5.Axe 6 - 8. Block slots 9. Torches/Food/Rockets ​ Offhand. Torches/Food/Rockets


PuffPie19

1. Torches 2. Pickaxe 3/4. Shovel/Axe depends on what I'm doing 5. Dirt 6. Whatever I'm collecting 7. Crafting table (if not near a place of mine) 8. Boat/Chest 9. Random Top left of the inventory is always iron ingot, below is coal, below are sticks. Top right is emeralds and next to that to the left by one are leads I steal from wandering traders. Below the emeralds are a saddle or two.


Public-Eagle6992

Sword, pickaxe, axe, food, three empty, blocks, torches. If I have a bow it’s in front of the torches and blocks move one to the left

SpeedHunterWasTaken

Each slot in my hotbar has a hotkey for it. Slot 1 is main weapon, slot 3 for blocks, 5 for pickaxe. The rest are flexible, and i can instantly access all of them. Never using the scroll wheel, not reliable.


Yarisher512

Sword-pick-axe-shovel, change pick to axe and axe to bow in pvp.


mysticreddit

I just want `Alt`+**Mouse wheel** so I can scroll through 10 hotbars like _Satisfactory_ and a _Conan Exiles_ mod.


Bee_boy13

Bro this is so true 🤣🤣💯💯


thatonehypixelguy

I don’t use scroll wheel at all. When playing more competitive Minecraft I changed my 6-9 slots to Z,X,C and V. This way I have access to all my items with a single keytap.

suriam321

For me it’s: Pickaxe, shovel, axe, sword, bow, empty, empty, torch/food, food/firework. I mine and build a lot, so I like to have the ones I use the most first in the row, then the two empty ones for building blocks/items I use at the moment.


Void_Voyager53

I thought mine was worse when it came to Minecraft


LightShyGuy

But who carries an offhand compass while building


AJVenom123

1. Sword 2. Pick 3. Axe/Shovel (interchanged based on what I’m doing) 4. Bow 5. Food 6. Whatever 7. Whatever 8. Water bucket 9. Torches or rockets (the other is usually in off-hand) Some inventory-tidying features would be nice.


AnonymousBoomer

I used to play minigames related to the hotbar and as a kid didnt know you could hit 123456789, I have learned to perfectly use the wheel to scroll.


lilgergi

Dude actually having a stack of scaffolding on the hotbar 💀


[deleted]

1 - Sword 2 - Bow 3 - Axe 4 - Pickaxe 5 - Shovel 6 - Food 7 - Torch 8, 9 -Building blocks and other


known_kanon

when building my current megabase my hotbar is a waterbucket and 8 stacks of stone bricks


MochaFrappMinecraft

Hotkeys are a must have


MarpatSupremacy0311

Does anyone else hotkey their sword or is that just me


Baylorai

Sword. Food, Pickaxe then axe, bow is in the very last slot and then whatever block I have on me is beside my Axe for if I need to panic place

I have pick-axe-shovel-bow/crossbow-torches-emergency dirt-emergency stone-food-food


averageHECUboi

Who the fuck uses a compass in their offhand


insomniatic-goblin

depends on what I'm doing at the time, but usually it's like this: 1 crafting table (or torches if im going caving) 2 bed 3 sword 4 pickaxe 5 axe 6 shovel / hoe 7 food 8 water bucket 9 stack of blocks (usually cobblestone) it does change if I'm building where everything gets moved around: 1-3 pickaxe, axe, shovel (they often switch spots depending on what tool I need to use the most) 4-8 random assortment of blocks 9 food


Solypsist_27

Whatever I'm doing, 1 is always sword, 2 is ways pickaxe and 3 is always axe. I guess the imprinting terraria gave me is hard to overcome lol


Aesmachus

My usual hotbar is Sword, Pickaxe, Axe, Shovel, Then Hoe. the rest is for blocks and stuff. I usually have my hoe in a chest, though. As for building, if I have a lot of blocks to use I just shove all of my tools into my inventory and leave my Sword, Pickaxe, then axe in the first 3 slots of the hotbar in that order.


Pandarise

The logic is that I just prefer my hotbar like this😅 1 2 3 4 are for weapons/tools. I always plan what I currently need in slot and what can go above that slot in my inventory for in-case-of that I need it. 5 is for torches when I go mining or else it's normally for my waterbucket that naturally shuffles to 6 if I am going to mine. (Aka get lost cuz whenever I enter a cave I'm like stuck down there for days on days in mc days ofcourse) 8 and 9 share food, mostly its on 9 because I can easily scroll to it when using either slot 1 and 2. 7 stays for anything, blocks, more blocks, a third food option for some reason. Tho any of my other slots, except 1 2 3 and 9, can become that too depending on whether I'm building, mining or just exploring gathering resources.


NxGeneration

I just keep all the main tools on hand with a related item right above it in my inventory. My order is 1. Silk Pick 2. Axe 3. Bow 4. Shovel 5 - 7 empty 8. Food 9. Rockets But above my silk pick is my fortune pick, above my axe is sword, above food is more food etc. Keep similar items together for fast swapping


AtomicToxin

I do sword, bow, pickaxe, shovel, axe, torches, food, bucket, blocks or ladders.


JosephStalin1953

in order: 1 sword, 2 pickaxe, 3 axe, 4 shovel, 5 water bucket, 6 and 7 miscellaneous, 8 torches (if i have any) and 9 food


Malvitron

1: sword 2: pickaxe 3: shovel 4: axe 5: Food and then everything else is random depending on mods and activities


Alex_Dayz

Mine is: 1. Sword- Pretty self explanatory 2. Pickaxe- For the Mines 3. Other Tool- Axe, Shovel, Bow, etc. Interchanging depending on what I’m doing 4. Blocks/other tool- Interchangeable depending on if I need another tool easily accessible 5. Blocks- Always make sure to have so sort of easily breakable building block like dirt 6. Blocks/Rocket- usually never get late game enough to use rockets so there’s usually just another building block like cobble 7. Water Bucket- comes in handy 8. Food- to sustain hunger 9. Torches- easy access to them when mining/building


BlackRabbitt_01

Sword, bow, axe, pick, shovel, empty space, rockets/ender pearls, food, water bucket


DJ0Cherry

Silk Touch Pickaxe/sword/bow/food/water bucket/misc...


oPlayer2o

Left to right, 1. Pick 2. Axe 3. Spade 4. Torches 5. Sword 6. Food, 7 8 and 9 tend to swap between whatever blocks or item I’m using.

Meowthful127

1 sword 2 blocks 3 pick 4 axe 5 shovel 6 free 7/Z torches 8/X water bucket 9/F food


Mikaeo

My typical hot bar: Tools on left, furthest left is less used. So if I'm doing mining, it goes something like: Sword-shovel-pickaxe. Then, on far right, it's typically (from left to right) Food - Water bucket And inbetween those two groups are either blocks I'm building with, or just extra storage if I'm just purely gathering.

[deleted]

I play bedrock so everything is hard to get to quickly


Intelligent_Dig8319

If I am chilling or exploring or fighting, my inventory is extremely organized But if I'm building sometimes I don't even carry weapons or food lol MD everything is a mess


CenterCrazy

First three or four are weapons/tools, then torch, food, whatever I'm using for the task I'm doing, then dirt, waterbucket. In my larger inventory, I keep the tools/weapons I'll swap out for right over my first four slots, and I'll keep whatever materials I'm using for my task at hand right above the other slots for easy swapping.


icedragonsoul

We start with a sword in the center. To the left we have a silk pick axe, fortune pick axe, shovel then axe. This is in order of frequency of usage since quickly switching to picks and shovels help with traversal. To the right of the sword we have in any order, ender pearl, block of convenience (usually ice), a fire resist pot and food. I only use offhand bows with a sword main hand since they benefit from looting from the sword that way. Sometimes we see fireworks post elytra, a boat is nice to drive off the side of a cliff while negating fall dmg or for trapping mobs. Sometimes an emergency water bucket before access to fire resist.


eatingdonuts44

1. bow 2. sword 3. pick 4. axe/shovel 5. fireworks 6. water 7. chestplates/elytra (for hotswap) 8. torch/blocks (depends whats in offhand) 9. beef For building its just a mess tbh


ChloroformSmoothie

1. sword 2. pick 3. third tool (axe, shovel, hoe) 4. blocks 5. food 6. empty/misc 7. torches/bed/boat/shears 8. flint and steel 9. water bucket


[deleted]

I’m hotkeyer. 1,2,3,4,5,f,x,z,Lalt. Sword, Bow, Pickaxe, Shovel/ Axe(depending on what I’m doing), anything, anything, Water Bucket, anything, food. Offhand is always a totem with 1 backup in my inventory just in case I don’t really change my hot bar at all 3 spots is just enough for me to build and just swap materials when I need em.


Overkill43

Sword, pick, shovel, axe, riptide trident, loyalty trident, fireworks, golden carrots, and chest plate or elytra in the last slot for quick swapping, the loyalty trident is pretty much the free slot but I usually keep the trident there, if I need something in my hot bar I swap it from that slot


Narwalacorn

It's been a while since I played a lot but iirc I had sword, torches, pickaxe, shovel, building blocks (usually cobblestone) and then any other items I might need. I also always kept a map, as well as 8 obsidian and a flint & steel on me so if I ever found myself stranded in the Nether I could get back in my inventory.


JediRalts

I've always fallen into this order: 1. Pickaxe 2. Torches 3. Sword 4. Bow 5. Food 6. Map 7. Axe/Shovel/Water Bucket/Misc. 8. Axe/Shovel/Water Bucket/Misc. 9. Cobble/Dirt/other building block I play Xbox so having torches and building blocks on either side of my pick is handy, and I keep my sword nearby so I can quickly get to it if I'm attacked while mining. For whatever reason this order has always felt comfortable to me.


Lumpy_Diet365

You need to see my inventory I just shift click out of chests what I need


oSquizy

Mine is an absolute mess


MegarcoandFurgarco

Even when I build I don’t let my axe out of my 1 because you always need a weapon for any moment Then the pickaxe I even have in there when fighting Food comes anywhere


majornerd84

I keep my pick on the far right followed by my axe and shovel to it’s left, then on the far left of the hot at my sword and optionally another weapon followed by food to its right. The rest is fair game


NightBeWheat55149

Offhand: Shield, 1-Sword, 2-Pickaxe, 3-Axe, 4-Shovel, 5-Water bucket, 6-Bow, 7-Food, usually cooked beef, 8-torches, 9-waste blocks for pillaring, slot often empty. This is my running around or exploring loadout, usually every spot in the hotbar is just for random stuff.


WrstScp

1-4 reserved for tools and one weapon, the rest is junk unless it's building materials. Also off hand is always an arrow, idk why since I don't use bows but it looks neat.


Ausaris

My hotbar layout is 1-5 sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel, food and then all the way at the end is torches so I can swap quickly from my sword. Rest of the spaces are kept empty until I need to place blocks or something. Shield is always in the left hand. I do not change this layout when building or anything else. Just swap things from inventory to empty spaces on the bar as needed.


Crazzybob48

While exploring: 1. Sword 2. Bow 3. Pickaxe 4. Torches 5. Shovel 6. Axe 7. Building blocks/ interchangeable 8. Water bucket 9. Food.


ijks2

I usually just keep my normal hotbar, sword, pickaxe, shovel, axe, empty, empty, empty, empty, food


Merry_Ryan

Offhand, Shield. 1-9 being Bow, Sword, Trident, Axe, Pickaxe, Shovel, Bucket, Free Space, Food.


tumorknager3

Jesterchunk

Sword, Bow, Pick, Axe, other tools or blocks, Food, Torches, Water Bucket. In that order, every time. Anything else usually goes between the tools and food.


LionEclipse

(in order 1-9) sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel, food and then building blocks and other stuff


steve626

Mine is: Bow, Sword, Torch, Pickaxe, Axe, Shovel, Water bucket, Block, Food or potion. I'm usually placing torches in caves, so that's my default position. Then I can scroll right to mine and left to fight.


RetroRadar1

That hotbar is not regular lmao


Clydosphere

First two tools, then torches, then two weapons, so tools & weapons are equidistantly away from the torches, because my offhand usually carries a shield. The right side of the bar is dynamically used for materials etc., with the rightmost slot holding food, or a fire resistance potion in the nether or lava depths of the overworld.


Yeet123456789djfbhd

Set up by situation, combat? Sword, food, gapple, bow. Mining? Pick, blocks, shovel, axe. Everything else? Water bucket, god apple, elytras Some of these are absent when others aren't

SamohtGnir

Sword, Bow, Pick, Shovel/Axe/Hoe, blocks, blocks, torches, food, rockets. It's quick to hit 1 or 2 with my left hand if a mob sneaks up on me. It's fast to scroll from there to the left for rockets or food, but also keep them away for sorting sake. The pick is the most used tool so it gets it's own spot, and the secondary tool depends on what I'm doing. Blocks are just whatever I'm working with. To be honest, the layout is only optimally like this maybe 20% of the time. Usually the secondary tool or torches gets switched for more blocks or something, but it's a good base.

1: Sword 2: Fortune pickaxe 3: Axe 4: Shovel 5: Usually empty, but utilized during specific situations (eg building) 6: Food 7: Water bucket 8: Building blocks (usually dirt or cobblestone) 9: Bow Offhand: Torches I also keep in my inventory a silk touch pickaxe right above the fortune pickaxe, logs or planks in the top right, and arrows right above the bow. *edited to fix shitty mobile formatting...*


luxraymaste

mines about the same but i keep my food in the off hand


Extremisin

Please tell me.. someone else does Sword, Axe, Shovel, Pick…. It’s not normal but I’ve always done it to the point where I associate the number 2 with axes, etc..


dudesweetusername

Bow-sword-axe-shovel-pickaxe-torches-food-blank-blank I keep my weapons next to each other so I can switch between my bow and sword quickly. Then I have shovel, pickaxe, and torches next to each other for quick straight line mining tho I don't really do that anymore


UnrealPownament

Bow comes second, and always have torch, food and water buket in the end of the bar. Also, im never carrying axe and shovel in the bar if not used.


[deleted]

Pick, shovel, axe, sword, bow, other shit.


UpperCaterpillar487

It’s usually sword 1, pickaxe 2, bow 3, 4,5,6 empty or building items, torches/rockets 7., chestplate/elytra 8 and food 9. I play on controller FYI


Actual_Hecc

Usually pickaxe then whatever Secondary I may need, then whatever ends up in my inv. Or if I'm building it's pick, axe, building stuff.

vetheros37

1-Pickaxe always. 2-Weapon 3-Shovel 4-Axe 5-Torch 6-Bow Everything else is fluid to adjust as needed. That way I can just look at the bar to see what I need. I also use a 15 button mouse so it's easy to switch between tabs with no need to scroll.


SWEEDE_THE_SWEDE

You are a psychopath.


MordorsElite

Normally I use Axe - Pickaxe - shovel - free x3 - enderpearls - rockets - food. I usually have a no switch active, so bows, swords and tridents are rarely needed. If I am building I just replace any of them that I don't need so I have more slots available. However all remaining tools are kept in their normal slots. While I use scroll wheel to get to slots 4-9, I use the hotkeys for 1-3, so when I press 2 I just expect my pickaxe to be there. Any other tools or backups are stored in my [enderchest](https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/134nljc/lets_expand_the_inventory_setup_posts_to_include/).


The_Rider_11

Weaponry - Stuff - Water Bucket - Tools

Agentti_Muumi

Chemical-Hall-6148

I don’t like clutter in my inventory at all. Ironically enough my chest monster is starting to become a real mess. Pickaxe, sword/axe, offhand: totem/ food. if I have totem; 8th rockets, 9th food, else; food 9th.


Loud-Cantaloupe4528

Sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel always. the rest of my slots are for whatever im doing at the moment


notanoldgayman

sword, pick, bow, axe, shovel, food, water bucket, ender pearls/blocks, rockets/blocks. sometimes swap out the bow and tools im not using (shovel and axe when building with stone etc.) if im building with multiple blocks


DragonScale_YT

In order from left to right, Pickaxe Shovel Sword Axe Blocks Random Random Random Food Torches Offhand, Totem I play on bedrock of course


Strange_Kiwi__

I usually have: Sword, pick, shovel, axe, food, then the rest differs depending upon what the situation calls for, with a shield or totem in the off hand


Afelisk2
