Ahem. Devs. There are too many buttons!

Have you tried ESO?
Its a lot less buttons and overly simple combat.

and annoying at the same time, the weapon swap mechanic is frustrating as hell

I Cata I had to run weapon swap macros for poisons. So glad that mechanic is gone.

If you keybind like I have heard some folks talk about in terms of PvP … it is a self-inflicted issue.

No, there’s not too many buttons. Yes, we are expected to play with either a baseline 1-9 and WASD, or opt for more keybinds to make playing the game more comfortable and fun to play.


If you dislike this, go and play a PvP game where you don’t have to use keybinds.

i looked up overkill in the noobtionary and it led me to ur post bro, like jeez learn to use modifiers n consolidate n tidy stuff up

What’s a modifier

Using mouse overs does help in that situation for some people.

I move with my mouse so mouse overs aren’t applicable for me.

like… do you feed it and everything?

If sincere,

A modifier is when you set a keybind. For my example I’ll use S

S is my cobrashot keybibd
If I hit shift S it’s my counter shot
Control S is my focus counter shot
Alt S is my turtle.

Sounds like you need an mmo mouse with 12 keys on the side. Majority of my action bar 1 and 2 are key bound with out the need of pressing shift or other combination.

Bro its like if I could fix it by doing that I would. I already have done that. I have too many buttons for keybinds. Thats a fact not an opinion. My post explains the problem. I have to use modifiers for like 5 abilities in a row in a small time frame. With NO WAY AROUND it. There are too many buttons.

lol at the type. Was supposed to be move lol

Sure but what I’m referring to are the folks who say that they need to keybind their interrupts, CC, kicks, random utility spells, and more … for each individual arena target.

PvP folks who complain about the number of buttons in the game literally quadruple their “required” keybinds to be “effective” apparently. And that’s when they decide to not keybind all of the stuff that they wanna keybind… so yeah, I don’t take PvP:ers complaints about keybinds seriously in the slightest.

Oh I thought that was literally just a keybind okay thanks

ur not doing it right

I don’t have focus macros anymore even though I used to. How could I? I have 30+ keybinds to set before we even get to that.

… when writing on a keyboard, no you cannot count each letter when writing as an individual keybind. Not for the purpose of this conversation.

To write the letter “A” you don’t have to separately keybind “writing the letter A” and get to count that as a keybind. So no, you clearly don’t have 30+ keybinds.


If it wasn’t blindingly obvious, no I don’t take your claim seriously.

Bro do I need to list the abilities? I have more than 30. What are you even saying.

while i am fine and dont have a problem with any class or spec. i have to admit, if a player is required to press 2-3 buttons in unison to create a single action via 1 ability, then yes, we have a problem.

we see you try hards. its not hard to play. just admitting this will not get you benched from your raid spot lol.

Nope. So you can use shift control and alt to modify certain buttons.

When I set up a class for key binds I set all of them on the same.

In pve I use z shift z for trinkets x and shift x for health stones health pot c and shift c for combat pot gate way control shard.

If I’m not using double on use then shift z is misdirect

The bill use V shift v control v for defensive abilities.

In pvp I use zxc for arena macros.
