Keybinders vs Clickers

I play a Commando. I play a hybrid setup between clicking and keybinding. I'm a girl and have extremely tiny hands. For example it's hard for me to hit ctrl+1 at the same time. So all my keybinds have to be one button press and this makes it difficult because there are only so many buttons in range of my stupidity small hands. lol

I find moving with the mouse is over sensitive. What DPI do you guys play with your mouse on? Mine is 6400 DPI.

Oddly enough however, my skills not hot keyed are ones off the GCD, I can click them in rapid succession.

Just saying, if they were bound next to each other you could hit them all at the same time rather than in rapid succession. Just sayin cause I like to bind the "off the GCD" abilities that I would use in conjunction with something else next to or near each other.

All about LoS for me, Keybinds for LoS attacks/debuffs, things like saber ward,vent heat, Ect. that don't require a LoS are clickies for me.

I keybind. I havent been able to incorporate mouse turning however. I'm left handed and gaming mice for us aberrations of nature and not deemed cost effective.

Then I drop it down to 4th gear and double clutch -> shift + gas pedal.

JK I use keyboard like everyone else who is gonna answer this thread
Hmmm. maybe use gas for move forward and clutch as modifier for something... maybe focus target.
Take a pick: arguing by ignorance or arguing by confirming the arguments you find meaningless.

Do all of you use the cool down timer text on your abilities? I hadn't for the longest time but since I switched I don't even know how I lived without it.

I was going to say, you know you could totally play a trooper/PT well with this system, right?

I realize this now. I'm going to have to fiddle with it later and come up with something that works.

keyboard turning and clicking like a BOSS. lol

Whats crazy is I top healing and damage in WZ's all the time. So, I must be SO AWESOME that even without keybinds im better than everyone. That's how incredibly good I am at SWTOR.

Nah, actualy I have about 6 abilities bound but I do mostly click. Winning and losing means very little in this game so I cant be bothered.

My main problem in pvp is targeting the correct person to kill or heal.
