To many abilities - piano playing must be reduced...

I'm just going to stop there because this premise is getting pretty absurd. Can you re-explain your point?

Wouldn't you argue that the class with 300 binds has a really high skill ceiling? That class is probably way harder to use right? I mean, if every other class could be just as effective but with only 3 binds then that class would need looked at. However, if every class has the same requirements then it simply means the game has a higher skill ceiling.

- Stims can be changed depending on situation (offensive/defensive) on a whim (I am biochem, which you could've known from my usage of rakate medpack - they are reusables).

- I use my mount all the time, PvPing in Ilum

- Sprint no longer needs to be reapplied after death since 1.1 already iirc. But you are right - I do not use it in PvP

- Dark Ward will certainly be used again, come 1.2. At the moment I use it in PvE only, but this will change in a few weeks. I already use it in PvE and will not change my binds anytime soon. Also, other assassins run with a shield generator already (poor souls^^). They have to bind it anyway and they are the same class and the same spec, so definitely counting.

- Again you are wrong - I can use 2 different medpacks. The wz medpack has a 3m cd, while the rakata is on 90cd, which aligns with the shared cd of both. This way I can alternate between them every 90s (wz medpack heals for much more) to get optimal results.

- The different types of adrenals are there for a reason, too (I even bothered to explain it in my first post...). I prefer to use the expertise one, because it's just more bang for the buck. But if I manage to catch an expertise pickup buff, it would be wasted to use the expertise adrenal (they do not stack) and I use the power adrenal.

- My point with crushing darkness was explained already, too. It's for a different spec, but you're right, I could change it for e.g. wither, which I wouldn't have then. I prefer to stick with my bind layout to suit muscle memory. More of a preference than a necessity, though.

- Ofc companion passive is not used in PvP, you're right

edit: forgot about ooc heal - you'd know how important it is to get a fast ooc heal (and why clicking anything is inferior to a bind) if you played a stealth class and/or had any clue about competitive PvP at all.

So, what is your point, really? If things like those are too complicated for you, please refrain from commenting.

edit2: One very important reason for keybinding everything is the ability to always mouselook/move at any given point, which gives superior situational awareness.

Yes, the skill of piano playing in short on forums called just "skill". I dont have it, i admit it - i can utilise only hotkeys i have listed in first post with exception for still comfortable shift+e,r,t,v,f. That doesnt require me to relocate my hand from my firm WASD comfortable position and i can transmit my intentions trough that firm interface to my character quite naturally without discomfortable struggle.

Im not good at this skill of piano playing indeed - but still there is humongous amount of players who are much much worse than me. But those players may have intelligence insetad, as i do have intelligence as my streght and i like to stimulate it while playing instead and i would like to utilise it in my gameplay comfortable way. Easy interface and complex gameplay - thats what people without piano-playing skill wants. Less hotkeys doesnt mean game is simpler... Unless you think chess is dumbed down games for noskills and idiots.

Please people stop filling this thread with your charmign story of how wonderfull piano-players you are or how happy you are with your keyboard-mouse - it just doesnt bring anything to discussion and only adds unneccesary pages.

If Bioware doesnt change their playerbase goal the people who prefer mind feast over fingers' struggle feast will just move to another game and swtor will stay labeled as game for skilled kids who are great at keyboard "piano-playing". Fine, i would just like to know if i should waste 1 more subscription in wait for some change or just move away already.

I believe you misunderstud me. Im not complaining on stimulating my brain while doing competetive pvp which is all about stimulating brain (fighting against human beings is much more demanding than fighting against AI - where additional abilities and piano playing once in a while might be kind of substitution for a real challenge which is combining reflex, wit and awaraness). Im complaining about need of using 5 million keybinds and another 5 million of modifier+keybinds all the time.

So your translation is missleaded.
