    When I'm not using a control pad I use a Logitech G500 mouse and G19 keyboard. both are pretty strong.
    The mouse has 5 or 6 extra buttons you can program to do whatever you want. From basic scripts to simple key sequences. For example you could macro a mouse button to target your parties tank and cast regen on him with a single button press. Or you could have a single mouse button that does your monks full howling fist combo.

    The keyboard is quite a bit more sophisticated. You can do all of that with the 12 g keys and even have the keyboard simulate the mouse pointer if you desire. I've never really got that much into it myself though. My g keys throughout 1.0 were pretty much job swaps. Press g1 I become a paladin and put on all my gear. Press g2 I become a monk etc.

    Not to mention simple things like having ts3 vent or mumble info on the g19 keyboard display I find quite usefull and certainly a far nicer option than overlays.

    I know a friend had a macro that would jump his mouse down and call his chocobo from the micro menu just by pressing one of the gkeys so yeah you can really do quite a lot.

    What i use in ARR will depends on the system. if the kb/m is like alpha i will most likely not use it. it wasn't terrible just simple things like w,a,s,d were totally screwed up. so hoping they either fix that or implement a decent game pad system or maybe both
