All you KB users are so odd to me. I need my analogs, one for character and the other for camera. ODDNESS to all who bind the camera to your character.. so your character ALWAYS faces forward. I couldn't do it. My camera has to be free of my character at all times.
The players I have the most respect for?

06-06-2019, 03:34 AMAmnmaatYeah I prefer controller's free form camera, but I hate that I can't look behind me....I'd have to download a third party program to bind keyboard keys to a controller button to allow the FFXIV keybind system to let me "flip camera." That's a huge problem.Quote:

Like lets say both of us are in 3rd person in real life right. we both look left. I ONLY move the floating camera left... while you completely turn yourself completely left. THATS what gets me. I couldn't do it. I don't know how people play with their camera tied to their character. I need those apart at all times.Quote:

Camera control (Legacy):
If it was fast movement —> Mouse
Slow movement —> PS4 analog stick (Right)
Character control:
PS4 analog stick (Left)
Abilities and skills:
Keyboard keybinds + mouse buttons
Have the best of everything ~ that’s how I prefer to play :D -
06-06-2019, 04:00 PMSelovaThat honestly depends on what I'm doing in game. If I'm tanking and i need to see a mechanic or something at a differen't angle, I spin the floating camera (not the one that turns your character) 360 degree's so i can get a better view. Some people do only move the camera that controls your character. I do both depending on the situation or what I'm doing.Quote:

I use Legacy controls. Before with standard I was dieing to AOEs all the time then I found Legacy and was dodging everything. Hated having to rotate my camera just to rotate my character so I could run from an aoe and because I rotated my camera I could no longer see the boss or what was happening. I want the camera to stay on the battle at hand while I move around like a lunatic with no problems.

Until a couple of months ago, I had no idea that clicking most of your skills isnt the "usual" way to play the game.
I move my character with WASD (obviously) can comfortably hit 1-4, with 5 being a bit of stretch on my keyboard. So... any skill that isnt on 1-5 gets clicked and its working quite well for me. I dont think I could get used to a mouse with an extreme amount of buttons (and I like my current mouse very much)... -
06-06-2019, 09:55 PMInsertcoinsSounds like you have the same setup I do. Where the camera and character are different and isn't tied to each other. If so then yay. :DQuote:

My keyboard skills are not that great (worst back then). Back then, I never played about of PC games. Only PC game I played was XI, which I moved from PS2 around I think about halfway in CoP's lifecycle. XIV was the second game I played on PC at the time but I always used Controller. For 2.0, I never did really like the whole Crossbar thing so I decided to try and learn keyboard and mouse. Of course I wasn't comfortable with WASD so what I decided to do was use Keyboard and Controller. The Controller is strictly for Movement and Camera which I keep in my left hand. My right hand is on the keyboard. Mouse is used for situational and misc actions.
Keybinds 1 to =, Crtl+1 to Ctrl+6, Shift+F1 to Shift+F6, and Ctrl+F1 to Ctrl+F6 are used the most frequently. Alt+1 to Alt+= is strictly for Pet Actions and etc but that's being changed so Alt keybinds are gonna be strictly for Misc Actions (Alt+1 to Alt+2 also have secondary binds to the mouse in case of Place Down Actions).
Keybinds Ctrl+7 to Ctrl+=, Shift+F7 to Shift+F12, and Ctrl+F7 to Ctrl+F12 are either not in use or used very rarely (Long windup time to execute when I gotta switch to the Ctrl, Alt, and F keys on the other side).
Mouse is used for Place Down Actions like Salted Earth or Rook Turret.
I've been using this setup for so long that it's hard to change it. I tried to have "normal" keybinds at the start of Stormblood since by then I've gotten used to using WASD, Keyboard and Mouse from playing a lot of PC games but that didn't last too long. My Special Setup is here to stay. -

my right hand on the num pad. Primary buttons i need to hit often and quickly (like oGCDs) arent modified.
lesser used skills, or non oGCDs are set to modifiers. (i play on PS4 now, so modifiers have a 10-20% failure rate, since PS4 sucks at input delay on keybords)
works pretty well for me.
i would use 1-0 more, if the buttons lined up perfectly, like they do on the num pad, but since they dont, i can only do 1+2 easily, and have a 75% accuracy hitting 3, and a 25% accuracy hitting 4 (which i do have abilities set to, and after all these years, still struggle with.) and 5 is impossible for me to hit more than 1% of the time. (have an ability set to 5. I have to manually look at my keybord in harder content, to make sure my finger hits it.) -

I have wrist problems so 90% of the time I'm on keyboard, 8% of the time I'm on controller, and maybe 2% of the time I am on my mouse.
Like... mini cactpot. I use the mouse for that. -

*edit* how you guys post image btw? i try imgur and it just give me a broken image. -
06-07-2019, 01:46 PMNessaWyvernI only reach as far as 1-6, but I also use shift, and Q, e, r, f, g, z, x, c, and v as my keybinds, that way I don't have to stretch very far, depending on my hand position I use aswd, or the mouse to moveQuote:
