Keyboard or Mouse?

[Mblaster]

I was just wondering how many people use the keyboard/mouse to operate the combat buttons on WoW, so I put up a poll!

*edit* But then i clicked the wrong button and now i can't see an option to add a poll *edit*

Doh, ill start by saying a use a mixture of both.

I've added a poll, if you want it changed please pm me

To clear it up a bit, I meant do you use the numbers on the keyboard to activate your abilities (on the bar at the bottom of the screen) or do you click them with the mouse.

I forgot to add what I use, I use the mouse for that as I can still move around easily while fighting (can't strafe with the mouse) and I like to be able to jump around my opponent in PvP, completly different kind of play compared to PvE.

Use WASD for forward, back, strafe left and strafe right, often use Num Lock to run without holding down w, hold down LMB to look behind me without changing direction and select targets, use RMB to look around and change direction at the same time and instigate melee combat, tab to select nearest target (handy when you can't see them as there's 2-3 people/mobs in the same spot) and 1 through to = for the 1st line of attacking spells/skills.

Oops, missed that bit! Thought you meant all the controls!

Are you still able to move around while in combat though? I tried it briefly but I kept hitting the wrong buttons because i was moving from WASD to the number buttons.

Both.
I use the numbers for my main attacks, and have a second bar of stuff on F1-12 which I use. Everything else (3rd bar and sidebars) I click with the mouse. Also sometimes I use the mouse for clicking attacks if I'm busy moving on the keys or feeling lazy.

Generally my main attacks are within easy reach of WASD, being 1-5, so yes I can still move around if need be. The other rows and side bars I use non-essential things like my healing and profession buttons etc.

I use both. Sometimes i catch the wrong number and cast the wrong spell. All my attack buttons are 1 to = and use the mouse for stuff on the Cosmos GUI.

My problem is I have 14 or 15 attacks.
