A State of Trance.3675 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Dear Arenanet just over 5 years ago I used to play ... another mmo. I left it because the community was amongst the most toxic I have ever witnessed in 18 years of mmo's, but one thing I will say of it: the control options were second to none. need 3 skills? mouse wheel up/ mouse wheel up + control/ mouse wheel down + control were all valid. middle mouse/ middle mouse + control / middle mouse + shift -- again, all good. As a left hander, I have a cramped block of keys - the pgup, pgdn, end, home , insert, delete block and then same using control + home etc. It works but in WvW, pvp when I get flustered I tend to hit the enter key, then just spam rubbish in the chat box while wondering why nothing is happening. pretty please could you enable more options, I would love to be able to bind mouse up & mouse wheel down.

Danikat.8537 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Why does being left-handed restrict you to just those keys? I'm left-handed and I can (and do) use the entire keyboard. Yes it means having my keyboard off-center so I can sit comfortably with the mouse in my left hand and the keyboard under my right hand, but it's entirely possible to do it. Although in GW2 I mainly use the number pad, but that's mainly because I find it easier to keep track of which keys my fingers are on when they're in straight columns and there's only 4 in a row.

A State of Trance.3675 Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 I suppose it doesn't, but it would be a hard habit to break now after so many years; but lets not turn this into a left hander wants special attention thread: would this not also benefit right handed people also? giving people more options, I just dont see a down side.

Danikat.8537 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Oh I'm not objecting to your suggestion, I have no problem with adding more options. I was just confused because your post seemed to be suggesting that because you're left handed those are the only keys you can use, and I couldn't work out why that would be the case.

Taygus.4571 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 You could try a key mapper, outside of gw2? So long as it's still one action. .they're ok to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayumi A Spender.5172 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I'm left-handed. I use a gamepad. I can't play games keyboard/mouse. I've tried and almost damaged my fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
