Xella has a great post over at WoW LJ about keybindings,and it got me thinking.I play with what I thought was the standard way -- with the left hand sitting on the home fingers of Shift,A, W, D,and the spacebar and then jumping up to the 1-6 (or further down the number line if necessary, though truth be told,I usually mouse-click those when I have the time to do so)to hit various abilities.But xella does it very differently -- she maps her fingers to the top abilities keys,using only her ring finger for movement.I would probably never have come up with that on my own(my habits come directly from FPS games,where the 1-6 keys are mostly for weapon switching,something you do not do quite as often as casting abilities),but it does make a lot of sense, even if xella says her ring finger,with all of those movement motions,is getting somewhat worn out.
And then she hits on something else I have been dealing with lately,too: changing what you have got.Setting up your keybinds is one thing,but actually changing them can be tougher. |
