The controls are the same as Champions and the spells are mapped to the d-pad, giving you eight spells in all. In the original Champions I found that it was too awkward to get to any of the other spells and wound up with just two spells that I used over and over again. SOE decided to make some minor changes by allowing the square button to set off a spell on the go. Basically it's like this you leave the two buttons set up for your most common attack spells while the other buttons handle all your back-up spells that don't need to be called up in the heat of battle. It's really nice, very smooth and let me tell you with some of the new spells and abilities they've added, it's an excellent fix. I'm confident you will find that SOE mapped the controls quite nicely giving you quick access to all your health and mana potions and any functions you'll need without having to pop into the inventory screen every five minutes.
