I always avoid the argument of "with these key bindings I can play with one hand" for some reason...
It's perfectly good... Then I can hold things in my other hand.

I only used my numbers atop of my keyboard (not numpad because I got used to the other ones on my old laptop - yes the crappy, laggy one - which had no numpad :P Rest was about clicking things, mouse for steering worked best here. Oh I lied about 'only numbers' I also used the character ' - ' for ptt on TS2 and Vent.

Actually I use click-to-move, click all my spells directly from the spellbook, upped my UI scale to 2.0 and have a huge font-size in my chat-window.

Am I 1337 now? :(

I'm kidding, using keybinds all the way. I can't imagine anyone tanking (playing even) with click-to-move. :wink: :P

I grew to be a big fan of keybinds and I'm sure it can help you to become a 'better' (more environment aware/mobile) player. I'm definately overdoing it though since keybinding every ability isn't necessary (especially those on longer cooldowns). Keybinds are 'hard' at first to get used to but once you do you don't want anything else. I press the right key when thinking about the skill without having to look down or stop moving. I might be biased though since I've been using keybinds for the last 3 years.

If you have 3-4 alts with dual spec, on which you switch regularly, it might be harder to cope with. :D

I used to have different keybinds with Scytale dependant on whether I was in caster form or tree form, on the basis that when I was in caster form I'd probably want to be DPSing and when I was in tree form I'd probably want to be healing. But it got stupidly complicated, as I'd frequently want to cast DPS spells in tree form (to quickly shift out and hit something) and healing spells in caster form (because there was a warlock around or something), so I just made the keybinds identical for both forms. Big improvement. :D

Of course, that's the way to go :) I have the same bindings in retri or protection spec, and I'm trying to model the DK around the same keybindings too.

I especially like how you can't actually see the mobs directly in front of you, because you've filled the top of your screen with raid bars. :P

It's a downward angle. Are you really that pedantic? :P
