Moving around and casting

jorgerb

I see players moving and attacking flawlessly but I find using skills while moving around using WASD and changing directions with the mouse incredibly awkward and hard to do. I have to stop moving to press the number keys and therefore get squished. Is there a trick to this other than buying a mouse with many button binds?

Thanks

I think practice, remapping skill buttons and (as you mentioned) mice with many buttons are all in use to varying degrees.

Though I use a simple gaming mouse, my move and skill buttons are on my keyboard.

This works for me:

Forward (space bar), Backward (B), Left (S), Right (D)

My skill buttons are simply moved from 1 2 3 4 5 to Q W E R T.

If your mouse even has a roller, don't forget you can use that. My mouse roller is forward (Jump), push down (Ultimate), back (stow weapon). My mouse only has one 'special' button for my thumb and I use that to swap bars.

Don't know if that will help but might offer some ideas.
