The definition of a "clicker" is simply a person who chooses to bind little to no key bindings. Some might argue they don't need bindings for an MMORPG, as are slow paced at times. This is just plain stupid.



Clicking all your abilities would be like trying to type an email with a single finger. Memorizing a solid set of key bindings is going to be extremely important and is a key factor in determining your final level of success.

The fewer abilities you leave un-bound the better, binding as many of your abilities to keys is key (no pun intended!). For most players your left hand will be poised on the keyboard. This will be your starting position for all your bindings. Q, W, E, A, S, D will be all of your basic movement keys, though the mouse should be your primary movement method. You'll want to have these keys bound to their original movement functions in the event you need to change targets via the mouse. You may choose to change your strafe keys from Q and E to A and D, since your mouse will be the primary method for adjusting your camera angle as opposed to the default keys.

The size of your hand will determine which key will be the farthest reach for you, in all likelihood it will be either 5, 6, or 7. Next you'll draw an imaginary boundary from this key to the bottom of your keyboard, this will be your "WoW home row". The most important factor in choosing your bindings is picking keys which are going to be easy for you to hit, you don't want to have to be thinking about your keys, you simply need to hit them via reaction. By memorizing all your keys you remove any additional variables and simply play by thought.

My Key Bindings: 1-6 Shift + 1-6 F Shift + E, R, T, G, Y, F, V F1-F4 Mouse Button 4, Mouse Button 5, Scroll Mouse Button Shift + Mouse Button 4, Shift + Mouse Button 5, Shift + Scroll Mouse button

There was a time when I was more or less a "clicker", terrible I know, I had a few skills bound; sinister strike, eviscerate, kick, stuff like that, but I lacked many key abilities I needed to make myself a better player. I finally buckled down and bound everything, it took me probably two weeks to get really comfortable with everything I had bound, but in the long run it was a great decision.

I was insanely faster in Arena, a more efficient raider, and brought my game to a higher level. My bindings and techniques for learning worked perfect for me, though they might not be right for you. Try some different setups, but take the time to really learn a your keys. Trust me, learning a solid set of keys will really help you out in the long run and will make you a better player in all sects of this game.
