@belleaspen86 I was also new to 'hardcore' MMOs, I did runescape but eh... I set up my key-bindings a while back and I'll tell you it is a drastic improvement once you don't have to look down. You can focus on the fight more and move a lot faster around the map and around your opponent. Key-bind and you will dominate.

@DBNonchalant He said to use V, I might consider that and implement using Alt+Q-E-R-F-C-X, Alt+1-2-3-4-5-G.

I just started using key bindings and now I've pretty much mastered it. I use Q-E-R-F-C-X then SHIFT+Q-E-R-F-C-X for the top slot. 1-2-3-4-5-G and SHIFT+1-2-3-4-5-G for the bottom center. I haven't mapped right and left slots because most of those abilities aren't spammed so I just click those but they can be mapped.

@sebbecr Oh didn't even realize that lol sorry

@hubachecka Yea I tried that for a bit with wow and depending on how you play it works out pretty well forgot all about that honestly thank you :D
A truly good keybinding setup means that a player should not have to to take their hand of the mouse to ever hit a combat ability. The setup suggested does. The only numbers you should use for your main 'in-action' quick slots are keys 1 - 6 as you can only reach these if your hand is over the W-A-S-D keys. Then replace buttons 7 - = , with
Q-E-R-T-F-C. Then setup the row below (bottom centre quickslots) the same way, but with +shift. This is how the Pros do it :)

Another thing key-bindings is superior. It's amazing once you make the switch from clicking. I would never dream of going back. It literally takes like 2 weeks on consistent use to get really good and then you will improve your actions per minute like crazy.

@DBNonchalant That's how it was for me too after I got used to keybinding I never thought about switching back with any game I played. Even new games I start playing I keybind all the main abilities.
