So, I don't know if I'm the only one who would want something like this, and idek how plausible it is as a suggestion, but it's something I've been having an issue with for a while.

My favorite part of Sylestia is battling, but with the way it's set up, the only options are 1) waste time moving your mouse back and forth and 2) press the number keys and hit E to end your turn

The problem comes when I try to use the second option. The placement of the numbers and E key in relation to each other causes me extreme pain after about 5-10 minutes and I need to take a break for at least 30 minutes before my hand stops shaking/aching.

The only alternative is using the cursor, which becomes extremely tedious.

I feel like the solution is pretty simple: Allow players to choose which keys correspond to their attacks and actions. That would allow all players to find a setup that suits them.

EDIT: I should also add that this issue puts players like me at a serious disadvantage when it comes to combat-based events. I can hardly hope to hold my own on the murderboard if I can only battle for, best case scenario, a quarter of of my playtime

I can completely understand this, considering I participate in most murder-boards annually, but most of my pain comes from my mouse holding hand, although I can totally understand why the keyboard hand would give pain, especially if you aren't used to the keyboard. So I think I would support this, although it would take quite a bit of work to set it up and maintenance to keep it working.

Honestly, I'd support this but I don't know if anything can/would be implemented like this. I have issues with my hand mobility at times and would love to take the stress off my wrists as much as possible to the point I usually avoid things like murderboards and LG grinding (which is a big part of the game honestly).

I've had better luck doing things on my phone which doesn't have hotkey availability at all and I end up grinding much slower as a result.

Support, especially constantly clicking the mouse makes my wrist tired and sore. If it's possible to switch to a different method of attacking your opponent that would be great =>
