Paladin left click auras

This post has been made many times in the past and i will make it again.
Please for the love of god give paladins the options to have auras on leftclick and Zeal or whatever you wanna use on right click for the 2.4patch…
It would not ruin the game at all as it is just a quality of life thing.
Its really annoying to play a melee paladin compared to a Frenzy barb/Feral druid/Any other melee character as you have to left click every single mob, and yes i am fully aware of holding shift while attacking but it really is not the same thing…

I don’t really play Paladin, but I support your motion.

Actually this is different now in the latest PTR. Turn on Quickcast in options, set Zeal to a hotkey on the left side, hold down the hotkey like you would with right-mouse, and you will attack-move.

Ok tested the quick cast, that didnt work at all. If i hold down right to attack/move at the same time it will cancel my aura since my aura is also on right click. And having Zeal bound to left leaves me with the same as before. And for some reason when i have an aura on rightclick it wont move when i hold down right button.

You don’t hold down right mouse button. You bind the left side to a hotkey and hold down the hotkey like you would the right mouse button. Like this:

I hold down F1 or F2 while steering with my mouse pointer and I will run around attack-moving without losing my aura. If your aura is switching out that means you incorrectly have the right-side hotkey bound.

If that doesn’t work, double check you’re still playing on PTR version.

Tested and confirmed! Thanks for calling attention to this - hopefully it will save some pally players from getting wrist injuries.

Still does not work. I held down F1 (Wich is left side Zeal) and yes it would run and i could just steer the mouse. But it did not hit anything if i ran by it. Still need to click

Well you’re doing something wrong because it works for me and others. Are you positive you’re testing this on the PTR version and not whatever version is currently live?

huh for melee paladin i don’t see it a problem. You click stuff and character hits it. Left click melee attacks are perfect IMO, because you kinda have to move in melee range to hit.

But that is a reason why i don’t like playing an Hdin, because i have to hold shift so much my finger hurts.

However, if we get left click auras, then stuff like teleporting with salvation\defiance opens up. That is not something that paladin needs.

A better solution is needed.

As for the “quick cast”, i love it that some people find it useful, however it fatigues me just as much as holding shift all the time
