Inspired by the sqt how do you guys allocate your hotkeys? I mean I don't think anyone uses F-keys as main...

My personal for every arpg:
QW, main skills
E, swap weapons
R, TP
A, any teleport
S, Main debuff or third dmg skill
D, Main summon
F, Extra skill, can be anything.
Z, Short duration buff
X, Long cooldown something
Rest are F-keys.

If there's an aura, it goes to S.

My main hotkeys are always f1 and f2, the rest are buffs or supports that are sequenced in importance, or mechanics.

A good example is a totem build, when I used one ages ago. It would go

LMB- Shadows
f1- Bend the shadows
f2- Burning Veil -to self buff
f3- sacrifices
f4- Ice totem
f5- Fire totem
f6- Void Archon

This brings an interesting point though. I never really thought of switching around management hotkeys with skill hotkeys. It might be a good thing to try out, but that means years and years of habit breaking, as my brain will always associate "I" with inventory, for example.

Q = Force Blast
W = Chronofield
E = Antimass
R = Immersion (Mouse Wheel Up)
T = TP
A = Bane or variable
S = Summon Edyrem
D = Ice Elementals
F = Mana Sweep
G = Familiars
H = Arcane Torrent or Hailstorm (Mouse Wheel Down)
F-keys = All buffs
Tab = Show Items
Space = Swap Weapons

F1 - bend the shadows
F2-4 summons
F5 frostclaw totem
F6 - Burning Veil
F7-8 DFT and Howling Totem
E for sacrifices
R for anything that the uber requires like edyrem, townportal, purify, boneyard, psyonic storm or funeral pyre
Leftclick for summon skeletal flayers
W for weapon switch
Rightclick on W for either Blink or hounfor (I don‘t use Hotkeys for those 2 and manually switch to blink for certain Ubers)

I‘m just so used to playing with the F keys that I can‘t get used to to something else even with other builds.

How do you run or check stuff on the ground... it's just so hard to imagine using F-keys.
