Just make sure its only a 1:1 key bind, hardware macros are not allowed

The official limit is:

The use of any third-party programs on Project 1999, including but not limited to, Macroquest/Macroquest2(MQ/MQ2), ShowEQ(SEQ), or any other program that interacts with the Everquest Titanium Client, is strictly prohibited. Use of any third-party programs will be detected and will result in the permanent banning of your account(s). No exceptions will be made, and once a ban has been enacted for violation of this rule it will not be reversed.

This includes programmable keyboards or other devices that creates multiple inputs for a single keystroke or automated task.

Wineq2 by Lavishsoft is the exception to this rule. In addition, any program that strictly reads log files is acceptable.

(But that technically leaves open the possibility of other "hardware macros" that don't create multiple inputs for one keystroke.)

Back to the OP, the main thing I'd recommend is using "modifier keys" (e.g., having buttons for SHIFT, ALT, etc.) to open up a lot more options.

Depending on your software (I don't know Xpadder), you may be able to create your own "modifier keys". For instance, you could make it so that if you press B normally, it triggers "1", but if you hold A while pressing B, it instead triggers "7".
