LOVE the game, HATE the keybinds

Title says it all. I am in love with this game. It is what I have been looking for to replace the d2 hole in my gaming heart. That being said, I really REALLY wish we had full control of keybinds. I hate the fact that no matter what I bind to the F1 key, the fps screens will always come up. I hate that I have to press the ctrl key so damn many times when I am grinding bandits or selling items to the vendor. The ctrl key is so out of the way for me due to the way I like to rest my hand on the keyboard. These are small things I know. But honestly... they are the worst problem I can come up with so far in this game. And that is a total win for GGG :)

TLDR: Please allow us to remap ALL of the key functions including ctrl clicking.

Thank you! GREAT game!

Edit: Oh, just thought of one more. Please save skills when weapon swapping. Every time I swap my left click goes to default attack when I swap back. Very annoying.

I was in for buying a new keyboard but now I'm leaning towards the G13...

How comfortable is it for a game like PoE? I mean, I ofte jump from the 12345+qwert to Enter and typing - This will cause an even bigger leap from play-mode to type-mode...
I have to agree with the OP. The one bind in particular that annoys me the most is having to using a skill slot for walk only.

Now I'm waiting for someone to tell me that the mouse does this...

I looked closely at the G13 - It's basically very similar to the left-most side of a standard keyboard with a few flaws:

The button that replaces the "CTRL" button is farther to the right - that's a source for pinky strain - which can lead to problems with the wrist - BAD.
-EDIT: I actually looked at it a bit more and decided that it's NOT BAD, just different - By removing the CTRL-equivalent key, your pinky becomes free to press all of the keys on the left side of the device. And with ALT and the Windows-Key removed, your thumb is free to use the 3 keys on the bottom row (without fear of minizing the game or opening the Start menu) in such a way that contours your wrist slightly to the right and allowing even easier access to the left-side with your pinky. Getting used to pushing more than just the Space bar with your thumb might feel a bit tricky at first though.

The contoured/rounded buttons that replace WASD are top-most (Disregarding the macro-keys above) - Most of the other keys are under this WASD-replacement so you'll have to usually move your hand down to reach more keys - That's unnatural to many players who are used to using 12345 or F1 to F5 - BAD.

I think I'd rather look for a better keyboard and avoid this poor gimmick.
