Practice mostly. I use different fingers for the same buttons, depending which combination I want pressed at once. Conversely I have no idea how anyone plays an RPG type game with a gamepad either - I find it the most clunky input method possibleHow do you guys even play ESO on PC? Like, I noticed the abilities are cast using the number keys, so I'm assuming it's the keys above A, W, S, and D. But trying that myself as practice, trying to hit the keys imagining that I'm trying to move around and cast something just feels incredibly awkward on my hand.

What does that have to do with macro's? It doesn't take a macro to left click and then immediately press any 1-5 key to start a skill, and then right click to block.

Can you please link to the official ZOS response saying that? I post because I can not seem to find the official answer and a lot of people seem to know but can't post their source. @AsmaelOnly got 2 side buttons for my mouse, corresponding to abilities 4 & 5. Using a standard EU keyboard, so QZSD for movement, A for quickslot, R for ultimates, W for swapping, left alt for dodge rollz.
And, well, for ESO a controller is fine, but good luck playing some MMOs with a controller, when you got 50+ abilities, and need a combination of 1, 2, 3, 4... with Ctrl, alt, Ctrl + alt, caps, etc.
Mostly a matter of getting used to it and finding a comfortable position.

On a side node @BlackEar , what linked is relevant to animation cancelling, not macros. As mentioned, AC is allowed, macros are not.
