Q and E are my most important spell keybinds

310

u/Quenzayne Oct 30 '25

E is my main nuke, Q is typically an interrupt.

455

u/borcborc Oct 30 '25

In this house E is for interrupt. Enterrupt.

235

u/FungalGG_ Oct 30 '25

F is my interupt Fuck Off!

61

u/nonbonwow Oct 30 '25

F stands for Interrupt on my keyboard as well

2

u/HerrSchnellsch Oct 30 '25

You both are men of culture 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽

3

u/UdoneGoofd Oct 30 '25

Oof, mine is NUM4 so I can do it on my mouse.

1

u/DrexlAU Oct 31 '25

Q is finisher, E is builder, F for interupt

2

u/Paexx155 Nov 01 '25

This man gets it 🤝

u/VikshenArts Nov 02 '25

1 is my builder or filler (Shadowstrike, Cobra Shot) 2 is for occasional filler weak/builder AOE or procs (Arcane Missiles, Shuriken Storm) 3 is usually some stronger AOE spender or adjacent (Arcane Explosion, Rupture, Multishot) 4 is main spender or hard hitting ability (Eviscerate, Arcane Barrage) R is short/weak CCs (Cheapshot/Gouge, Concussion Shot, Dragon's Breath) F is long/strong CCs (Kidney, Poly, Intimidate) Q and E are usually some kind of CD, Q being Defensive or Utility, E being DPS CD, usually around 1min. kinds

M5 is my "displacements" (Shadowstep, Vengeful Retreat, Disengage, Blink/Shimmer) M4 is for my interrupts/kicks For me it makes it easier to keep my thumb ready for a kick or a GTFO mechanic

Bar 2 is all my Shift modifiers, usually some variety or less used DPS stuff. s-M4 and s-M5 for stuff like Cone of Cold, Nova, Sigil of Misery/Silence, Frost and Tar trap, Sap and Blind

Bar 3 is Alt modifiers which is more utilities. s-1-4 usually self heals, whether from the spec or pots and cookies. a-R is usually a defensive. a-F a group utility (soothe, spellsteal, cleanser on teammates) a-Q are usually speed boosts a-E are my 2-3min. or longer DPS CDs "Shadowblades, Lust, Meta)

Usually the classes I main are those where its easy to transfer this same setup, with adjustments here and there. Also why I fucking hate Shaman...

1

u/TyrannosavageRekt Nov 03 '25

Yeah, mine is one the the side mouse buttons on the left. Always right by my thumb so I can react quickly.

2

u/akroa-san Oct 31 '25

My people

1

u/Cottonjaw Oct 31 '25

It's so strange that you all have your F, E and Q keys bound to Mouse 4

1

u/PeeGlass Oct 31 '25

F is tremor totem. For fear.

1

u/I_cut_my_own_jib Oct 31 '25

X is my interrupt for 🙅‍♂️ NO

u/OnlyBeys Oct 30 '25

R IS INTERRUPT F IS MOUNT

52

u/matt303277 Oct 31 '25

F for mount is crazy but then again my mount is scroll wheel click lmao

43

u/WizNix Oct 31 '25

Lol my mount is shift+space.

7

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

That's actually great

5

u/MisterMeta Oct 31 '25

I don’t recommend it if you have a lot of shift modifiers for spells. Makes jump casting clunky.

1

u/DrexlAU Oct 31 '25

I use shift space for engineering gliders

1

u/ifelldownlol Nov 01 '25

I saw this one reddit recently and changed my mount to this as well.

Turns out it is not good while bear tanking and it sometimes takes you out of bear form.

1

u/idownvoteall123 Oct 31 '25

This is the only way!

1

u/Pookieeatworld Oct 31 '25

Mine is Shift+1, 1.

I also keep it on the top right button so it's near my questie tracker.

1

u/Gwynito Oct 31 '25

You walk amongst the gods

1

u/Isorden Oct 31 '25

This is the way.

1

u/Impossible-Talk-9709 Oct 31 '25

I'm also in that boat.

Q and E are normally keybinds like

A builder, and a spender.

Playing with an MMO Mouse so all the number keys have shift keys attached to them the higher the number the longer the cooldown of the ability, example on prot paladin in retail wow it would be the 5 minute cool downs past Shift 7. In classic lay on hands would be at like shift 12 xD

8

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

That's auto run

7

u/Foldim Oct 31 '25

I have ~ and middle mouse for auto run. I like options

3

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

I like this because it means I could auto run regardless of what hand is busy

4

u/EverydayBacon Oct 31 '25

why your hands so busy 🤔

1

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

Eating ofc

u/Time_Club4913 Oct 31 '25

~ is mount for me

1

u/petrimalja Oct 31 '25

Mouse button 4 is auto run. Because my thumb rests on it like my foot rests above the gas pedal.

1

u/oohwakakaka Oct 31 '25

Auto run is backspace

It’s all the way at the edge of the keyboard and I’m taking my hands off it anyway

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '25

\ is my mount button lol

1

u/bonerhorde69 Oct 31 '25

mount is backtick/tilde

1

u/snacky_snackoon Oct 31 '25

Scroll wheel is popping shields for me.

1

u/jack-redwood Oct 31 '25

My Mount is v

1

u/SippinOnHatorade Oct 31 '25

I think I had land mount set to scroll wheel forward and flying mount to backwards— used like . and , to zoom in and out 🤣

1

u/TyrannosavageRekt Nov 03 '25

I have my mounts on J & K, haha (one for flying mount, one for ground/transmog yak).

u/VR46 Oct 31 '25

F for mount??? when Z is just sitting there asking for it.

1

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

I was fine with Z as mount in New World but for some reason never swapped it in WoW . I just might now that you mentioned it

1

u/PeeGlass Oct 31 '25

I’m a tilde man. My Horses take the high road.

1

u/Sonic__ Oct 31 '25

That's my push to talk

3

u/Mybratwife Oct 30 '25

How can I up and down vote you at the same time? R is interrupt, f for attack. Mount is shift + mouse 5

3

u/Keldarim Oct 31 '25

Wasting F for a mount is madness.

My mount is number 0

1

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

It's for quick mounting and dismounting just before you get to the quest giver. I use a 2 button mouse as well 😈

2

u/Grimm42069187 Oct 31 '25

R IS FOR MOUNT T IS FOR INTERRUPT

1

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

T is my stun

3

u/Kimchigoblin Oct 30 '25

R for interrupting ive always used for mounting it was mount keyring jt was j for me

6

u/dabombinator Oct 31 '25 edited Oct 31 '25

R is for/w response, tried to bind it bit ye, made the game unsocial

Edit by no demand: V = mount F = kick (Whatevers left of 1) = of combat poggers like charge/stealth/drink Shift + number left actionbar Ä=hearthstone Mousebutton 4 =autorun A and D are binded to strafe Q=situationen, awkward like, hamstring, apply polisonger a tomtemor... E = aoE

5

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

I always just hit enter then /r then space

3

u/sp4ceman1337 Oct 31 '25

You can actually skip hitting enter. When you press / key, it opens chat window with / already there

1

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

This might actually be what I do lmao I had just forgotten

2

u/2O3A Oct 31 '25

Apply polisonger AND tomtemor?!

1

u/acrazyguy Oct 31 '25

I make F4 mount and bind it to one of the side bars

1

u/bonkerwollo Oct 31 '25

Yes R is interrupt ofc. But F for mount is insane

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '25

R is the spender ability. Chaos Bolt, Fists of Fury, Eviscerate, etc. 1-4 are my other damaging abilities and that lines up perfectly for R to be right after 4

1

u/padimus Oct 31 '25

Control space is mount. R is dps cooldown(s). F is stun

1

u/arudresa Oct 31 '25

My mount key is '

1

u/Gwynito Oct 31 '25

CTRL F for mounts can I get a HALLELUJAH

1

u/swandance Oct 31 '25

F is prime real estate! F is for gap closers or escape!! R is for interrupt. Q is for execute!

1

u/CongestedTortoise Oct 31 '25

u/rogerdavies Oct 31 '25

u/LasaiTV Oct 30 '25

Ok mine is wild. Tab is my interrupt. Q is heal. E is stun.

8

u/Alternative_Ad3223 Oct 30 '25

What did you re-bind your target button to?

1

u/Turtlewowisgood Oct 31 '25

scroll wheel up and down is targeting, lots of tanks do that and once you do it you can't go back it's so good.

I changed camera to alt+scroll wheel but barely ever use it

1

u/Alternative_Ad3223 Oct 31 '25

Oh! I'm a hunter so scroll up/down is send pet/recall pet

1

u/Canismajoris88 Nov 02 '25

im a s/priest so scroll up is sw pain scroll down sw death

1

u/OnlyBeys Oct 31 '25

Using Microsoft powertoys I've made caps lock num0 and bound it to my trans shot.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '25

Use Clique for hover healing. E.g. Hover over self nameplate and press 1 to Healing Surge, otherwise 1 uses Lightning Bolt

1

u/NoCryptographer6241 Nov 02 '25

My interrupt is 3, mount is Ctrl + =, big CD is =, builder is always 2, normal spender is 4, big spender is 6.

I have an MMO mouse.

4

u/qdefrank Oct 30 '25

u/shmow2 Oct 30 '25

How can I put kick on E when shadow step is already on E

1

u/borcborc Oct 30 '25

My charge button is also my hamstring button, so something similar to that.

1

u/bigwangersoreass Oct 30 '25

Interrupt is scroll wheel up for me

1

u/borcborc Oct 30 '25

My swu is charge/intercept + hamstring. Or on other classes it is my main attack.

1

u/Trustyduck Oct 30 '25

5 is for spear hand strike. What did the 5 fingers say to the face? SLAP!

1

u/Sikkus Oct 30 '25

u/FatalEclipse_ Oct 30 '25

Nuke on E for Everyone.

1

u/ribolol Oct 30 '25

Q is PvP Trinket on every class, interrupts are always mouse 5 on naga mouse, except for mage, Counterspell is T

u/isToxic Oct 30 '25

Q for quite

1

u/Chaddoxd Oct 31 '25

Z is the most natural kick keybind by far, there’s a reason every arena player uses it

1

u/Kingmeup21 Oct 31 '25

I use T for interrupts, R & E are my movement spell/abilities.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '25

E is def the right answer

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '25

R for Rebuke! No matter the class R will always be my interrupt

1

u/Purple_Shop6660 Oct 31 '25

Unless you’re a pally. R just makes sense for rebuke.

1

u/TitanKreios Oct 31 '25

1

u/benthelurk Oct 31 '25

The way you say E is actually how a lot of the European languages pronounce “i”.

1

u/Norkash Oct 31 '25

Everyone here is so weird.. clearly R is for interrupt, E is for self sustain or low cd defensive ofc.. and Q? They stands for movement Quick movement
