Some people use a mouse with mappable keys or a hand held grippable keypad to twist rather than a normal keyboard.

I'm one of those. I have all the thumb buttons on my gaming mouse set to click 1 through 8. Took some getting used to but it's really nice.

The lack of /melody is what is stopping me from playing Bard.

/Melody was put in as a quality of life fix and to prevent the *numerous* people from getting carpal tunnel sydrome. I don't see why we couldn't have it here :/

I don't recall it being there when I quit at LDoN, but then I didn't play a bard...

You know another way to avoid getting carpal tunnel syndrome? Don't play P99.

If you have good hand positioning and you aren't tensing up, you shouldn't get any problems. I've been barding super hard for four and a half months now with nary a pain in my hands. No macros, no special mouse, just tapping my 1-8 keys. You just don't want your wrist bent while your fingers are working. Your hand should be a gentle curve from wrist to fingertips, like classical pianists' hands look when they're playing.
