If you use any channeled skills, they must be bound to RMB (R2) or LMB (R1) because holding any of the face buttons will trigger a repeating press of those buttons rather than holding it which will break your channel. Just remember you will need to disable this automatic re-casting by toggling the ability again when you try to port back to town.

If you are at end-game and need these abilities to trigger repeatedly or whenever they are off cooldown, then hold the AXYB buttons for 500ms to toggle re-casting of them every 1s. When moving and aiming with the left stick or trackpad, hold L2 to force you to stand still when casting any abilities.Īny buffs or cooldown abilities should be bound in your 1-4 slot. I find that using the left track pad feels more natural than using the joystick as it's hard to be precise with the joystick due to dead zone, but easy with the trackpad. I've spent many hours tinkering with the configuration to get it to a stage of being very close to emulating the console controls.
