Most Efficient keybinds in your opinion.

[The Youkai Slayer]

Also best level to test the keybinds, I am thinking cultist base.

"most efficient" is what you find most comfortable

[The Youkai Slayer]

Yes. In your opinion. Basically, do you think your play style is good in the comfortable ability, easy to get use to, and good at quick swapping.

I respect those controls, but I can tell those are not for me. But I can see how they can be good.

honestly I use keybinds very similar to FrostyXen. they are more or less the 2016 defaults except grenade toggle is on the mouse, CG is on X, and chainsaw is C. but I personally would recommend something more like ESDF using AQW and RTG as your different primary weapon rotations similar to a more optimized layout for 2016 except placing HC in a convenient place to always be swapping to for PB after firing a weapon. but really as long as you're comfortable and can quick switch properly without interrupting your air camping or other movement you're fine.

This

Mine are
Q - SSG
E - Ballista
Z/4 - Heavy Cannon (easy access for SSG/PB, Ballista/PB, and the 4 bind is good for PB/SSG combos if you can get the muscle memory for it down)
C - Rocket Launcher (can use your thumb to hit this bind if you use the mouse wheel to jump or Spacebar can used in place of C in this instance)
1 - combat shotgun
2 - Chaingun
3 - Plasma rifle
G - BFG
V- Crucible/Hammer
X - Swap equipment
Shift - Dash
R - Swap weapon mod
F - blood punch/glory kill

My mouse has two buttons for my thumb, the forward one (mouse4) is the flame belch
rear one (Mouse 5) is for grenades, and clicking the mouse wheel is my chainsaw.

I'd recommend SSG on 2, Ballista on 3, Plasma Gun on C, Flame belch on R, and weapon mod swap on Left Control. The rest should be up to you

I like these controls. Seems pretty efficient in my opinion. I will try them. But, hey. I am willing to see others too.

I actually use a Razer naga Pro and swap on the 12 buttons on my mouse and quick swap exclusively using that, all keyboard keybinds are used for chainsaw/mod swap/flame belch/grenades/grenade swap. It's low key amazing never having to take my fingers off of movement keys.

I have a similar setup, except :
e is Melee
r is equipment launcher
q is switch grenades
m.scroll up is chainsaw
m.scroll down is Flame belch
and mod swap is set to a reprogrammed turbo button next to my LMB

[Grampire]

Mine:

E : Heavy cannon
R : Rocket Launcher
Q: Ballista
2: chaingun
3: Plasma
4: Combat Shotgun
Left Ctrl: Grenade
Z: switch grenade
F: Flame Belch
C: Chainsaw
Use/Blood Punch/GK: thumb button
SSG: other thumb button
X: BFG (Will probably completely unbind this soon)


E>R makes PB/Rocket combo easy. Just having PB on E makes combos using it a lot easier and because it's such a critical element in the fastest and best combos it should get a prime key assignment.

My biggest regret on my binds is putting SSG on my mouse thumb button, which I've been doing since 2016. It's muscle memory niw, but still feels horrible doing combos.

For what its worth, I tried using a mouse with lots of buttons for weapons (some logitech MMO mouse) and absolutely hated it. Learning to move while firing isn't hard - aiming while pressing a bunch of side buttons is. Especially once you learn how to meathook and fight in the air.

Fancy mouse

[yiyip the grunt major]

I use default keybinds because im too used to pressing 123456789 or maybe i just have long fingers idk

[🎃MaximusBlastalot🎃]

Also testing keybinds in a sp or mp setting thats "hectic" isnt a good idea.

Your "muscle memory" will conflict to much with you trying to learn the new binds, its better to easy into it instead of developing new "bad habits".

My keybinds are:
1 - combat shotgun
2 - heavy rifle
3 - plasma
4 - chaingun'
5 - SSG
Z - Ballista
X - Rocket launcher
Q - Hammer/Crucible
Mouse 4 - Melee
Mouse 5 - BFG/Unmakyr
Mousewheel up/down - grenade
G - Switch grenade mod
R - Switch weapon mod
C - Flamebelch
F - Chainsaw
Shift - dash

The setup i use works great for me with PB+Rocket and PB+Ballista combos, aswell as SSG+Ballista. The only ones that feel somewhat more difficult are SSG+PB and Stickes+PB. But haven't found anything that works better for me personally. And i should probably change my grenade keybind to Ctrl - but i just got used to having it on a mouse wheel flick.
