Open the System screen, go to Character Configuration, go to UI Settings, then under the 'Help' subsection either toggle off "Display Action Help" or move it where you want it.

Thank you do much, i fixed it to the lower right where the inventory is usually in so it doesn't bother while in battle!

Damn dude... I feel like there's just so many configuration options where if something isn't working out for you, there's a way to fix it(w/o mods).

i didnt know this was a thing. thank you so much

A guy in my FC admitted that he never uses his keyboard for skills, he only clicks the buttons. He’s a successful savage raider.

We had a Dragoon, that not only manually klicked, but did so in the Controller hotbar mode…

Someone I used to be friends with was the same. People used to pick on him for being a “clicker” but he does pretty high content in WoW and was working on the same in FF. People play how they feel comfortable.

Write that in chat and it's going to stop showing the description of any action (items will still be showed if you place your cursor on them). Since you might want to look many times at what a skill does when for example leveling a class, i recommend having this command on a macro and place it on an hotbar so that you can press it to hide everything and just press it again if you need to look at the descriptions.

Turn off tool tips, or set them to show on the left side of the screen instead.
