what's the best keyboard to use the less strain on your left hands

Given the summary of the policy on automated key presses earlier in this post I'm not sure if it's kosher to use one but Logitech g19: wouldn't have to mash as much with one at least

Hey look at this! One time that playing a lolwizard isn't so bad. Spent like 55% of my time afk while lvling up to 60. Only have to kite mobs occasionally and you generally kill them within 45 seconds to 2 minutes at most.

I love playing bards, but they are too much damn work. I generally only raid on my bard now (when I'm active) and tend to group on my rogue, because I'd rather have a more relaxing group experience.

Bards are pretty easy on a raid. Get your songs setup, position yourself with your mouse, and then just mash 1, 2 2, 3 3, 1 1, 2 2, 3 3 ... until the mobs is dead. (generally)

In a group situation, all 8 song slots get used, and that shit can get tiring. Tho, I am really enjoying playing my bard on red right now. And after some downtime, the only real way to get back to boss bard status is through grouping.

I expect to be grouping a lot on my bard come Velious, and will cut that shit out when my wrist starts throbbing. You should probably sideline Zanderr until then (other than on raids) so you can actually play him whenever Velious launches.

Sorry to hear that you need surgery! (time to utilize some alts)

I guess it's time to change your name to wristlocke.


Is this thing on...?

Some people ordered these ergonomic mice at work...

I honestly can't stand them but they are MUCH better for your wrists. Maybe try that out as you are recovering.
Good luck with the surgery and healing process!

Why not set up macros so you dont have to start and stop songs by tapping twice. You can start a song and stop a song with one click.
