Is there a mod that allows to bind prosthetic to 1 2 3?
I play using mouse and keyboard, it's really annoying when I need to cycle multiple times to switch between prosthetic.

There is the Weapon Wheel mod, this may sound undesirable at first, however, watching ONBAL's video here, he states in the description that he's using it. He's playing hudless so we can't see it, but it looks to be allowing him to switch up prosthetics as well as combat arts like a true Shura on the fly:

And there's also "Sekiro Hotkey System"
I'd be wary about this one as the file seems to have been quarantined by Nexus mods, noone in the comments of it seems to be having any issues over malware so it might be a false flag, whether you're willing take that risk is up to you; I use neither of these mods. Maybe in the future I will but at my current skill level am fine taking free breathers in the pause menu

I have played Sekiro over 3,000 hrs, all with keyboard and mouse. Never used any mod. Well, call it whatever you want, I only use the Z key to change prosthetic during any fight. I always put shuriken in the 1st slot, then firecracker in the 2nd, and specific one in the 3rd. When I said "specific", by that I mean a specific prosthetic depending on what type of enemies, or which boss. Axe is particularly good against some mini-boss as it causes massive posture damage. It really can shorten the fight. Also, it just demolishes the low level minions.
Overall, once you learn how to execute perfect parry/deflect, you really don't need to use the prosthetic tools much. Ok, certain boss, like Lady Butterfly, you need the shuriken. Gyoubu, the very first main boss on a horse, firecrackers. And for that matter, the very 1st mini-boss, the general with a seemingly mile long sword, the infamous axe. The ogre, the flamethrower.
Never rely on the prosthetic tool for vitality damage, always use it for posture damage when coming to boss class enemies or some high ranking samurai. In fact, the game is designed on purpose to encourage you to use posture damage to take out the enemy. Yes, some high ranking samurai and most boss class enemies, if not all, have high posture recovery rate, like Lady Butterfly, Owl, Genichiro and Isshin. Remeber this, when their health is down by 30%, the recovery rate starts to slow down. Down to 50%, even slower. And when their health is down only 30%, the recovery rate is zero. Couple these facts with the two passive combat arts where more posture damage will be dealt against the enemies right after a successful deflect, you will defeat them via posture damage.
Hope this help. Good luck and keep on perfect parrying :)

Thanks for the suggestion! Actually I don't really have trouble with any of the bosses, I've got the parry timing right and can finish most bosses effectively with demon bell (still using charm cause it's my first playthrough). So far I'm only using 2 prosthetic in accordance to the boss' weakness and attack window, that way I can cycle more deliberately.

It's just I like styling a bit in a fight and the inability to cycle to specific prosthetic kinda break the flow of the fight. In other games such as Witcher 3 for instance, I can cycle between sign easily using number, making the fight flows better.

Thanks a lot mate! I've been having the weapon wheel mod on my radar. I was reluctant at first because I thought it's just a weapon wheel mod. But after seeing the patch description, it seems they've added the ability to use hotkey between 1-9.

On a side note, Ongbal is just a different breed.

I didn't notice that, that's sick
Definitely going to get Weapon Wheel because of this, I hope it's assigned in a way similar to how Dishonored does it

I hope Sekiro modding gets to keep blooming more, it deserves the love.

Got it installed. Hotkey'ing isn't like the Dishonored wheel, but it's more than good enough, loving the ability to switch between both combat arts and prosthetics on a whim, will probably never play without this installed again

Yeah it's not as intuitive as Dishonored, but as for mod it's absolutely amazing. Same mate, definitely can't play without this. The fight flows really well now without the need to cycle between prosthetic multiple times.

This mode make the fight easier. In fact, it simplifies boss fights by reducing the importance of switching times. No.
