Hey guys, first i wanna say this isnt one of those "Share your inventory" posts.
ive been playing more survival than pvp lately, and hot-bar orgnazation is really important to me, i use only the number 1-6 for the quick switch. I would like to know what is the best hot bar for me to use, since i do alot of survival and abit of pvp. thanks!
I've found this works pretty well to keep things rolling. I generally only have to switch to the inventory screen when a something is about to break or my inventory is full. Take a shovel for general caving, axe for abandoned mines. Cobble is in there for bridges/emergency walls.
1: Sword/preferred Melee
2: Bow/preferred Long-Range (hey, snowballs could be here...)
3: Food (High-saturation is ideal)
4: Health II Potion
5: Naturally-Occuring block. (Used for blending in if in trouble)
6: Empty/ whatevs you want (I suggest water, but only if Flame/Fire apsect weapons are commonish...)
I posted only 6 since those are what you use.

I would say it's whatever you are most comfortable with. An ideal hotbar set up is subjective; What's ideal for one person will probably not be ideal for another person. Just go with what makes you happy and helps you survive easier.
Sword, Axe, Shovel, Pickaxe, Torch, Empty/Cobble/Dirt, Bucket of Water, Food, Empty/Other pickaxe (if my first doesn't have fortune, but this one does)
I strip mine usually, so fighting mobs is a rare occurrence for me. My setup is basically meant to put the 3 most common items I use around each other. The pickaxe, with the torches and shovel on either side.
The Place where Cobble/Dirt go is basically where blocks I'm mining a lot of to use go, for things such as quick bridges or closing up lava sources. This usually just ends up being the stone I'm mining through.
My personal selection is:
(Sword) (Pickaxe) (Axe) (Shovel) (Food) (Torches/Empty) (Hand) (Building Block/Empty) (Bow)
I play survival a lot and I play a building server so I don't really have a PvP set up. Oh and I use a mouse so quick switching isn't a problem for me. I only use Torches when mining and I only have a block when I'm planning on building something or I take blocks mining with me for lava or stacking. I also have this weird ocd thing where when I don't have any thing I need to do I have to have my hand out for some reason.

You think magic isn't real? Consider this: for every person, there is a sentence -- a series of words -- which has the power to destroy them.
