Since there is a 9 spell limit, and the Heroes spellbooks have 11 Free slots (considering 1 slot is always for the close button), there is always 2 Free slots which are used for Mercenary/Summon commands "Attack" and "Retreat".

Problem is, Whenever you cast Summon/Hire mercenary, those commands are put within the middle of your Hero skills, changing the places of your current skills and making it harder to see your cooldowns and such, If you are not used to using a Mercenary, for example.

I suggest to place the Summon commands to always be the 2 Last slots on your spellbook, so your normal skills wouldn't change place whenever you summon a Pet and making it cleaner to see your spellbook.

It's not about using hotkeys, It's about managing cooldowns.

It's harder for you to keep track of the skills you need to use on cooldown, or for an emergency situation, when they change places in your spellbook, since your eyes get used to where they should be after a time.

But thanks anyway

Gunz has a fair point. Reliability in skill locations is important when quickly cross referencing with your current situation. I use my hotkeys too s0ul, but I'm always popping back to see my skills and when they're next available.

Having both a number on the skill info, an actual counter on the skill AND reliable positions that don't change whenever a Mercenary is added to the heroes skill pool are all great benefits in combat,

Another good suggestion Gunz, keep up the good work and I might just let you rub my back.

Edit: Ah, the kind of shithouse hunter that still doesn't have magic arrow.
