Switch weapons with out removing your thumbs from the sticks

The PS4 has key-binds, to use them follow these 5 ez steps.

1- From the Home screen go to setting then Accessibility, then Button assignments and enable Custom button assignments.

2- Go to the left d-pad symbol (in game weapon swap) and replace it with R3 symbol (sneak mode).

3- Back out and uncheck Enable custom button assignments, as the PS4 key-binds are hard coded and will work for everything you do on the console.

4- Now check the Add to quick menu, for quick access to your key-binds.

5- To access your key-binds from the game just hold the playstation button, scroll down Enable Custom button assignments and check it when your playing ESO and repeat this step to uncheck when your done with ESO.

These steps are Ideal only for the default controller setting in game, as it leave a low foot print and keeps the game play feeling natural. makes you wonder why this wasn't the default configuration to begin with as removing my thumbs to weapon swap is the biggest issue with combat for me.

    I can't do that, I'm thumb clicker, so I would be clicking them constantly, I'm actually glad pressing the thumb down does what it does at the minute for me, . jump and sprint, but I had this changed via the game settings,

    I see where people would find this useful but the game doesn't require that quick of a reaction to change weapons to warrent me doing this

    Very nice, thanks... might give it a go later. What I usually do is just jump while switching weapons so by the time my character lands, I've changed ability bar. :dizzy:

    For me a puppet master control scheme is the only way to go for combat and I don't need to sneak while I do combat I do switch weapon constantly not having to remove my thumbs to do so is a must. but if you don't need it 'm not sure why you needed to tell us you don't need it.

    Or play on Xbox and use an Elite controller that you can map out your buttons or add 4 additional ones.

    Nice. Much cheaper then my solution, which was to buy a couple SCUF controllers.

    For all the new players coming to Morrowind, this little set up will help give you the edge in the new battlegrounds.

    Seems a lot simpler than buying a scuf... oh well the scuf has been pretty awesome.
