Button Modifier for Mouse Skills

Let me start by saying that I've been trying to bind what I feel my "core" skills are to the 3 mouse buttons and my lesser used abilities to QWERT. The thing is, I feel like I have more "core" abilities than I do mouse buttons.

I think it would been an interesting addition to have a modifier button that switches to a different set of bound abilities for you mouse. Either one you have to hold for it to take effect or one that you press and needs to be pressed again to swap back. I feel like LEFT SHIFT would be the most obvious choice (and it currently serves no purpose).

Let me know if I'm crazy or if you think it would be a useful option to add.

They need to add in the option of having thumb buttons on the mouse assigned to a skill. That is what I want to see the most, other than that, they could do as you are saying and have it so if you hit q or something it switches your mouse click skills to the second set of them.

It would be nice if I could bind my gaming mouse buttons, but it's not a big problem. The current system is great for this game. I just dislike pressing the middle mouse button as a bind. (I use a Logitech MX518.)

That would be great. I am not too comfortable pressing the mouse wheel.

You could rebind them in logitech setpoint.

I switched middle mouse button to one thumb button, and W key to another.

This is the first thing I found I missed the most from diablo 2. In diablo 2 you could scroll the middle mouse button to scroll through your available assigned right click skills. Which was absolutely necessary for one handed play.


I think this seriously needs to be looked into, as lots of us are parents, students, etc, who multi- task while gaming, and who TRULY benefit from being able to play one handed.


Adding the ability to switch between either the middle mouse buttons, or the right mouse buttons, assigned skill via scrolling the mouse wheel.

Or by assigning a map-able next skill previous skill button for the right/middle mouse buttons, would greatly improve my ability to use all assigned skills (limit to only switch between the currently already assigned skill set if needed,) without having to fumble bottles while reaching to switch skills.


edit:: just thought of a possible alternative that would help. Allow the assigned qwerty skills to be "click to use-able." Then I could click to use all my assigned skills like I do potions.
