Cannot Assign Skills to Mouse Wheel - Please Fix!

#BlizzardSupport @ filthierich
When i trying to assign Mouse Wheel Up/Down i am getting small red Notification which say “Cannot Assign to Mouse Wheel”.
This came after the the last patch.
Now you want us to play with 2 hands? This is Just Ridiculous and need to be fixed!!!
I am playing with Hammerdin Paladin/Barbarian on WW and using Mouse Scroll for my both main skills Scroll Up for Tele and Scroll Down for Concertation/WW. Now i need to use F’s to cast skills and use Teleport or to use Mouse 3 and Mouse 4 button ( not bad but is useless compared to just use the scroll button )

I’m having this same issue since the latest patch. I cannot assign mouse wheel up or down to a skill keybinding.

Was this an intended change? I use the mouse wheel to bind skills frequently. I would love to see it restored to the way it was before patch 2.3. Thanks.

I found Solution but is Mouse Specific
I am plying with Razor Atheris
You need to Install Razor Synapse
Go to Customize Panel - Choosing Hypershift
Then Go to the Game Options - Keyboard - Assign non usedd Buttons from the Keyboard - i did “Z” and “X” Then Add this 2 as Teleport and WW for Example
The in Razer Synapse assign - Keyboard Function This two Keyboard Buttons on the Place of the Scroll Up/Down and now i am able to use Mouse Scroll for my Both Primary Skills

In D2:LoD you could bind SINGLE Skills to Mouse Wheel Up and Mouse Wheel Down:


I’m guessing you could do this in D2:R too, before the latest Patch.

But now, you CANNOT bind SINGLE Skills to the Mouse Wheel (Up or Down) in D2:R:


Even though this does not affect me, I believe it should be fixed.

I really don’t understand that move, I could already not assign something to mouseclick (mousewheel click), I got used to have only 4 skills on my mouse (wheel up, wheel down, mouse 4 and mouse 5) but now I only have 2 skills there! I mean, can you please at least explain me why you did this? the only reason seams to frustrate players who used it…

If you have a Logitech Mouse, you can try Logitech Options software or Logitech SetPoint Software, I could not do anything for the mouse wheel up or down, but I could do something for the wheel left, wheel right and mousewheel click.

Hope they fix the issue with themouse wheel up and down FAST!!
