why am i the only one complaining about key bindings ? it’s so annoying with their controls … like x to jump ? really ?
You can change to Mouse setup and it will change your movement to WASD. Personally however, I would prefer a complete custom setup, I find some buttons on both the Keyboard and Mouse setup that I have issues with.
they should put key bindings for all hotbars and all movement keys

I found it really awkward to have all the basic keys change between keyboard and mouse, since I have to relearn everything when switching back and forth. It’s not a solution anyway because you’re forced to change everything else just to get wasd. Besides, esdf is better than wasd (my keybinding opinions are fact and everyone else’s are false; this statement is true no matter who is speaking).
We really just need a settings screen that lists all functions in one column and keys they’re bound to in another, so we can highlight it, press the key, and have anything bound to anything. Maybe show the original default keys in a third column for reference.
I agree, I like to change the keys for my gamepad too. As for the Keyboard & Mouse, I have the Logitech G13, G15, and G502 to get around that ^^;

There really isn’t any reason to not include keybinds. I only got to rank 3 and was already having trouble setting my spells into the terrible default keybinds. I misclicked my spells on G and H more times than I can count, considering I never even use H as a keybind in MMOs, even ones with 50 buttons like WoW. The keybinds I normally use are Q, E, R, F, T, G, B, V, C, X, Z, 1, 2, 3, 4, and the Shift+ variation of all those keys. I can still cast charge spells while moving around if I transition my movement from WASD to my mouse clicking. Keybinding mouse buttons would alleviate issues people might have with charges spells as well; hold right mouse button for easy access for spells like Energy Bolt.
Being able to change keybinds for the interface would be really nice to. Don’t know how many times I pressed i to open up the inventory.

any update on this? key bindings are critical to MMOs it’s shocking they were not in the game from the start. X to hit? really i’m left handed and while the arrow keys work for me the XASD to attack do not.

You can change your hotkeys in the game folder itself, just find the folder in your steamapps and with a bit of searching you will find the xml hotkey files and you can change the bindings from there.
Agreed it should be included but I would not lose sleep over it as long as we can alter the xml files.

thanks Remiri i’ll try that.
life saver right here
Just make sure you find the xml that relates to your method of play.
There are 4 xmls for hotkeys
Auto
Keyboard
Mouse
Joypad
So if you want to alter the keybindings for Mouse play, make sure the xml has ‘mouse’ in the filename.

Does anyone knows the name in xml file for the Dot/Period key in NumPad?
I am not sure if the xml differentiates between numpad and regular. Would be easy to test in game though.
Does anyone know if there is a way to make the game not read my controller as a controller? I ask cuz I like to use Xpaddler for my games… it is sooo much easier to set up with that… if not i’ll code it in the file, but i wish it didnt switch to the controller unless I wanted it too.
