For Xbox players; What is the best controller binding for survivor?

On the Xbox one, I've been playing the default controller binding settings for over a year now and I'm just now wanting to change it.

Considering that I always accidentally dropped pallets instead of healing downed teammates, I've gotten tired of all the buttons practically being the same.

What controller bindings/layouts are the most beneficial for playing as survivor? And what buttons should I change or swap to fix the gameplay in general. Some have suggested using a "Claw grip" technique when using the controller in dbd, but it's really uncomfortable and I can't get used to it.

    Nothing worse than trying to open the 99'd gate and healing instead. Or dropping the pallet. Or slow vaulting a pallet with the chain hunt all over you.

    Get the actions separated as much as you can.

    Personally, I have running as LB, Pick up items/interactions (gens, gates, etc) as RB, Actions (pallets, windows) as X, skillchecks as X, Ability 1 as A, Ability 2 as Y, Event Ability as pressing the right stick, and wiggling as LB. That's what's worked for me since I started playing around Deathslinger's release. You should experiment with what you find best for you

    I like X for interactions (repairing, healing, etc.) and Y for Ability 2. RB is reserved for quick actions in chase, like vaults and pallets.
