Do you click or bind to cast

[Rikkon]

So i was watching the kill videos on the boss strat page and the ones i was watching the person playing didnt have any spell bound to keys and was clicking them all. It got me thinking i wonder it a lot of people do it that way or do most bind them to keys like i do. So do you click your spells to cast them or do you bind them to keys?

i click on the spells to cast them. I've been doing this since day1.

Clicker here!!! Can't ever seem to find the time to set up all the key bindings.

A majority of my spells are key bound. I do click a few and even some of the ones that are bound to keys I think I click more often than not. I like having my dot rotation and shadow bolt bound to keys other than that I probably click everything else even if it is key bound.

I am a serial clicker for my offensive spells... things i have bound are usually out of combat things like hearth, mount, soul wells etc

I like the theory of binding but since i have been a clicker since pre BC and i am a creature of habit id be worried that having to learn a whole new way of fighting and reacting would demote me back to being a noob all over again >.<l

total clicker, i think because of the GCD it gives me enough time to move my mouse around so i dont lose much time anyways. and i sued to play only first person shooters, so im used to clicking things to make stuff die

I have my most used dots, shadow bolt and drain life bound to keys. 1 2 3 4 5 and then Shift + 1 and Shift + 2

Other spells are clicked. And I notice myself clicking my dots sometimes still.

On other toons I press keys, rogue and warrior. But, they take a LOT less buttons to play it seems. Rogue I hit 1 2 3 and that's it, warrior is 3 4 5 6.

I've got all binds for offensive spells. I figure I want to be watching my enemy movement instead of watching the GCD. I have a few clickables such as my Will of the Forsaken, health stone, pots and PvP trinket.

All the rest of them are keybound. all pet spells are bound to the f* keys. all spells bound to my cast bar go in importance. Immo, Corr, Curse of Agony, CoS, Ect. Then I've bound all my keys near my WASD. Like RT, FG, and CV for quick reaction spells. Then DL and DS are bound to my mouse keys :P

It took me a very long time for it to evolve this far but I can only see it going farther. I couldn't click for the life of my and can't understand how everyone else does. Like fighting finnicky frost mages blinking around like 'tards.

registered a while back, can't remember if i ever posted here or not. so if not this seems as good a first post as any....


I bind everything to key presses...I hate the mouse and only use it to move..and sometimes not even that.

I have umm 54 hotkeys mapped to buttons (64 if you count pet)
1 to =
Alt+1 to ALT+=
Ctrl+1 to Ctrl+=
Plus i have a G11 keyboard with the 18 hotkeys on the side which I have mapped to CTRL+ALT+A to CTRL+ALT+R

Shift+1 to Shift+0 is pet
