    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    As ret in PvP, if you include macros, I have a good 40 keybindings.

    Levelling a hunter ATM though, and even at level 40, I could see myself having 30 buttons in a PvP environment.

    And contrary to what alot of people are saying, Other than totems, shaman don't have much else to bind, definately more than an arcane mage, but it doesn't seem to be one of the higher ones either. (Unless you go into odd combination of totem macros)

    High-Rated pvp Warriors.

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    PVP hunters by a long shot, frost mages, hell, warriors.
    A tauren warrior once told me "You may have won the battle but you haven't won the battle". It was only a small portion of the Horde's wisdom.

    Out of my (prot) warrior, (blood/frost) dk, and (resto/enh) shaman..... I would have to say the warrior has the most keybinds.

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    I've got a warrior myself, but he's Fury PvE, nearly always has been (with a dash of prot at L70). Could anyone explain to me where arms gets the magic buttons from in PvP? Seeing as Fury seems to be one of the easiest/most boring DPS'ers around, with the few amount of abilities they have.

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    I agree that Hunter and Shamans have loads of abilities, probably most of all classes, but will rarely or never use quite a few of them.
    A skilled Frost Death Knight will, however, be using close to all of them as they all serve a good purpose in most situations.

    Whether or not they qualify as keybind-worthy really comes down to player preference.

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    hunter who micromanages well has over 55 (situational macros included) binds, i never played shaman so i'd say hunter personally

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    i had some problem adding several keybinds when i started using the pvp disci priest, i vote for it

  11. #111

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    Most of the classes has 20 keybindings and use 15 regularly.

    An Hunter has 60 keybinds and uses 10 regularly.

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    Pulling some data from our raid logs on Sindragosa, the following abilities were used:

    Death Knight (Unholy):

    Icy Touch
    Plauge Strike
    Death Coil
    Scourge Strike
    Death and Decay
    Blood Strike
    Pestilence

    Anti-Magic Shell
    Anti-Magic Zone

    Bone Shield
    Icebound Fortitude
    Horn of Winter
    Blood Tap
    Blood Presence
    Unholy Presence
    Death Pact

    Army of the Dead
    Summon Gargoyle
    Summon Ghoul

    Total: 19

    Hunter (Marksmanship):

    Steady Shot
    Aimed Shot
    Serpent Sting
    Chimera Shot
    Volley
    Explosive Trap
    Silencing Shot
    Kill Shot
    Multi-Shot

    Rapid Fire
    Aspect of the Dragonhawk
    Aspect of the Viper
    Deterrence
    Kill Command
    Misdirection
    Hunter's Mark

    Furious Howl
    Rabid Power
    Dash
    Call of the Wild

    Total: 20


    These were just examples.

    Calculated a few more:
    Fury Warriors: 19
    Arcane Mages: 20

    Note: I have most likely missed some abilities.
    Just wanted to show that every class has a quite similar range of spells and abilities they use in a given fight, even though some classes have twice as many abilities they never use.

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    As a pvp shadowpriest, list I use in most arenas:
    Shadow Word: Pain
    Mind Blast
    Mind Flay
    Shadow Word: Death (people use more of those for focus etc.)
    Vampiric Touch
    Fear Ward (combined with Fear Ward pet)
    Shackle Undead
    Psychic Scream
    Shadowform
    Fade
    Silence (+silence focus)
    Divine Hymn
    Dispersion
    Dispel (+dispel macros for mates and so)
    Mass Dispel
    Devouring Plague
    Power Word: Shield (again some macros)
    Inner Focus
    Shadowfiend (shadowcrawl+dispel shadowfiend)
    Cure Disease
    Prayer of Mending

    I have also keybindings for those, but I don't use them so often:
    Wand, Holy Nova, Binding Heal, Flash Heal, Greater Heal, Renew, water

    I use these often, but these are not class dependant
    Gloves Rocket
    Shadowmelt
    BM Trinket
    PvP Trinket
    Healthstone


    _______________

    Thats 22 crucial priest keybindings + 5 other crucial bindings + 7 not so often used keybindings

    I click buffs (except shadowform and fear ward) and resurrection

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    Got 4-5 bars with bindings i use aswell, but i have ALOT of macro`s though, and i actually need all of it

    Mostly Focus target macros and intervene macro`s for my arena partners and such

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    Shamans will off course have the most amount of keybindings, if your dumb enough to bind all/most of the totems

  17. #117

    Re: What class requires the most keybindings?

    Number of key binds != Number of abilities on the class != Number of abilities used in your rotation

    Name a totem that does not need to be binded except Sentry totem? (and flametongue if you're elemental)
    (You might not need all in pve, but who the fuck cares about having alot of bindings in pve anyway, im talking pvp here)

    The place 4 totems in 1 global thing accually gave us 3 more bindings instead of having to remove alot of totem bindings. This is idd a good thing however, since bindings shouldnt be your problem. But say 1 of your totems goes down, you really really shouldnt waste 4 times more mana placing 4 new totems, expecially not if most of the totems are already in a good position and your current position is not the best to have totems in.
