Healing 8 toons with a Razer Naga, help!

[thomaswaits]

Please, can someone tell me if there is a way to program a Razer Naga to auto target more than four group members? I find it extremely troublesome having to click every time I want to heal. It disrupts my movement. Any tips?

u can reasign F keys, works

But I only see an option to assign any keys to players 1 through 4. How do you get 5 through 8?

maybe you want to bind autorun on your naga. jumping helps a little, asuming you run with left and right mouse button. right before stopping to press both mouse buttons press space bar, while your char is in the air klick the ops-frame and when you are doing fast enough you can continue left and right mousebutton in time when your char lands on the ground. the first option with autorun is smoother to play.

I might try that. Using my keys to turn. It just sucks because the whole reason for getting the mouse was to avoid clicking and keyboard turning. It looks like I may have to do one or the other in warzones. It's flustering, I say. Maybe I just need some more practice. As of now I am using the w button as forward and a and d to strafe. But it is not working well when I have to click so damn often. If it were only once in a while that would be a different story., but I have to click a ton.

I suggest ditching that fancy mouse you got, get a normal mouse and begin moving with your keyboard! This will allow you to move effortlessly while also making it very easy for you to simply click any player listed that you need to heal. An added benefit is you can also backpedal. Backpedaling is the best way to evade death in PVP, it just takes a lot of practice to master!

Sir, your words offend me!

You can easily make mouse over macros with your naga or other macros for healing.

2-4 button mouse + wheel

Simple traditonal keyboard.

everything else is "lack of skill" cheating

Key binds for target selecting is bad, enlarge your ops frames and focus on only ever clicking a friendly target's name in the frame. Your heal rotation with your keyboard hand (and/or thumb on the Naga) needs to be muscle memory so that you have constant eyes on your ops frame and what's going on around your character. Never bind anything passed 6 on the keyboard, and make use of all keys around QUEASD (or use W and D to strafe and use Q and E as extra binds). Extra binds such as alt 1-5, shift 1-5, alt f1- 3 are also ideal, but may take some time to get used to.

 

Try to use the keyboard primarily for movement, but if you can get to grips with it mix between both using the keyboard and mouse for movement, but primarily the mouse for your camera and frame clicking (or target clicking as dps when the enemy is clustered together reducing the effectiveness of tab).

 

Master everything and use it at the right time, don't listen to the elitists who unbind S and flame the odd bit of keyboard turning, there is a situation for everything, albeit situations lasting seconds.

Yes I agree. I easily heal 7 people, plus myself with just a 2 button mouse with scroll, by clicking & healing. You do not have to have a gaming mouse to play this game.

No you have got to be a troll. When did mouse turning get popular??!?!?! When I played WoW you laughed the mouse turners out of chat basically. NOW in this game it's acceptable?! WHY?!

And before someone comes in saying it's so much easier, faster, best way, blah blah blah! No it's not; I have used my mouse for movements, but you still can not do what you need to do. Especially in a PvP fight. In fact it hinders playing.

WASD, spacebar, and 1-9 work fine, while you can still click the numbers or actions that are not numbered.

 

I guess that's why so many people throw a fit about playing GSF & want joystick controls. They are mouse turners & can't grasp how to use a keyboard properly.

Not sure how long you have played this game, but the majority of attacks are limited to your frontal 180 degree arc, if you have, say 2 melee combatants, one mouse and one keyboard turner, the mouse turner can easily get behind the kb turner and stay there. At which point the kb turner can not attack the mouse turner, while the mouse turner can happily butt-camp the kb turner all day. Sure you can try backpeddeling, or jump turning, still won't be fast enough.

[foxmob]

heh. "butt camp."

This is good advice. Thank you.

I have a naga and use A and D to strafe and I have absolutely no problems. I also heal on my commando and mercenary so you just need to L2P bro.

 

Try moving your Ops frame somewhere where you can reach it easier.

Clicking your raid frames is a last resort. It is slower. I understand people can get away with it in this game. The globals are slow and cleansing isn't very important. If you want to max your potential though, you have everything bound.

 

Bind Target Self or use the self modifier.

This is a must. No argument.

 

Bind Target Party Member 1-3

Its designed poorly. Warzones randomly organize your raid frames and the keybinds don't always match up. It's still way faster than clicking people in your group. Pregame you either rebind your party members 1-3 to match where they are in the raid frame or you just remember every game where they are located. I understand why people might not want to do this. It's a hassle, but it makes you much faster.

 

Bind Target Nearest/Next Friendly Target

Whichever you become most comfortable with (or both). If for nothing else, this is essential for cleansing quickly. Ops frames in pvp won't show you debuffs to cleanse a lot of the times, especially once someone starts getting medals. The couple of debuff slots become taken up by useless stuff. Most of the time you'll have to cleanse off visuals. It is faster to use target nearest/next friendly target for this. Don't, however, rely on this bind for all friendly targeting.

 

Bind Target Focus Target's Target

This is the best and fastest way to preheal/guard/sheild/grip a swap. Especially when that swap comes from a ranged dps. No excuse not to have this bound. No excuse not to actively be setting your focus target.

 

You only click in situations where you can't reliably pick up non direct group raid targets with target nearest/next or focus target's target. This only really happens when everyone is clumped up. That is when you click the 5-8 frames which you can't individually bind for some reason.

 

You should never be clicking your teammates in arena, unless you didn't have time to set up your keybinds prematch. Like when the game starts before you enter. You should never click your own frame.

 

You should also never be out of keybinds when it comes to this game. A qwerty keyboard alone has 100+ easily accessible binds.

Simple thing to do is get comfortable moving with your mouse and your wasd keys. Change A and D to strafe, then move with mouse when possible, however when selecting people to heal via raid frame, move with keyboard.
