Set Hotkeys in Warhammer Online

Hotkeying abilities is the most important thing for a gamer.
It just takes practise.

I want to share the tips on how to create hotkeys in Warhammer Online.

1. Take a easy, just rest a hand on the keyboard somewhere close to the left side. Keep your other hand on the mouse.

2.Then you need to make a decision. With your keyboard hand (KH), place your fingers as follows:
W-MIDDLE FINGER
RING FINGER -A  S  D-INDEX FINGER

LEFT-SHIFT- LITTLE FINGER
THUMB on SPACEBAR

Move your thumb from the SPACEBAR to ALT and back again.Then move your middle finger from W to S and back up again.  Then move your little finger from LEFT-SHIFT to LEFT-CNTRL and back again. I callthis standard as WASD configuration.
Of cause you can set other keyboard till you feel comfortable, but I like WASD:P

3. Enter the game and log into a character. Press ESC or click MAIN MENU at the top of the default UI.
The first thing we’re going to do is set up FOUR action bars.
So, on the MAIN MENU pop-up, choose CUSTOMISE INTERFACE. Click on ACTION BARS and choose the option, 4 BARS - SMALL CLUSTER.
Now you got four friendly action bars on your screen. Click and drag everything on your action bars off. You won’t lose your abilities, of course. They’re in your Abilities tab.

4. Go back to the MAIN MENU and choose KEY MAPPING. Then click the HOTBARS tab at the top of the window. A crazy-looking, confusing screen of gibberish will greet you. Take heart and fear not. It’s not as complicated as it looks.
Once you’ve determined what your favourite Mastery Path is, move on to the next step.

5. On the KEY MAPPING screen on the HOTBARS tab, scroll down to ‘Hotbar Button 1′. When you press ‘1′ on your keyboard, your character will perform the ability that is placed on the ‘Hotbar Button 1′ slot on your action bar.
You can double-check by looking at the right end of the top-right hotbar–there should be a ‘2′ there. If there’s not, then accept the changes you made to hotbar buttons 1-9 (if any) and flip the top-right hotbar page to ‘2′ so we can see what we are doing.
For hotkeys 13-17, set them to the keys ALT1, ALT2, ALT3, ALT4, and ALT5.These ALT keys will be for your second Mastery Path.Set up Hotbar Buttons 25-36 the same way.
See,you have everything hotkeyed.
