PC Controller - Hybrid Mode please (Mouse, Key and Gamepad)

Hi,

thanks for adding the controller support. I played several ARPG with a controller. Games that offer a hybrid mode, by that I mean you can use Mouse, Keyboard and the Pad at the same time, have by far the highest quality of life. Play with the Controller, Micro the stash/shop/npc/character stuff with the mouse. I would love to play poe like that.

Yes, this.

I completly agree. So so much.

never thought the pc version of poe would become a joystick game.

the moment it becomes the most effective way to play inventory tetris with mouse/kb and autohoover your currency with a joystick (or split the tasks of killing /collecting stuff in parties) is the moment one should quit and look for other, pure pc games.

i've been excited to learn how ggg would resolve the issue of the different effectiveness of both input methods ... well they didn't:

people will play with both as soon as some clever guys figure out how to activate consoles in the mouse/kb version.
it's maximum damage.

i'm not touching a joystick to play an arpg, even if it's the most effective way to play. and i will also not play kb/mouse if it's inferior cause i will fee like playing a subpar input method just because i think joysticks are for racing games and flight simulators.

Don't mix up joystick and gamepad.

This is joystick


This is gamepad


Unless GGG introduce aircrafts in PoE, you don't have to use joystick.

Totaly agree.
Dear developers, please add this option.

In Undecember its The best gamepad control I've ever seen + mouse for management. I would really like to have such an opportunity in my favorite game too.

A very nice QoL change.

They are the same picture, you move a stick into some direction and click. It requires a totally different skill than moving the mouse to a certain position and click.
