Convenient Key Binding

Just wondering, for those of you who've bound your mounts to a key, what key did you use? I'm having trouble picking ones that are as natural/quick as just using my mouse arrow on the list.

At the moment I have mine on B, N, comma and fullstop, with / reserved for the griffon. Simply because that's where I had space.

But I'm finding myself accidentally getting on my springer or skimmer a lot when I try to open the map (I never noticed how inaccurate I was with that button until now), so I'm thinking about either moving the map to / and moving the mounts over or moving the mount shortcuts completely. Trouble is I don't have a lot of space on the keyboard, but then I do have a lot of commands duplicated so maybe it's time to accept that I don't need all my skills, weapon swap etc. in two places and get rid of some of the duplicates.

tl;dr it's a work in progress.

Griffon to Q because I'm using it constantly, the rest are shift + z x c v (in order of getting them). It works fine for me. I use the z x c v for utility skills anyway, so I'm used to reaching to them.

I've got the raptor on Z, the springer on J, the jackal on comma, and the skimmer on U. I've set all my characters to have the griffon on the mouse menu, so I can mount it with X, but it's also bound to Shift-J in case I'm juggling cats or have forgotten to adjust my keyrunner's mouse menu or something.

I can't live without a multi-button mouse. I bound mounts to the inconvenient F7 (using Shift, Alt, Ctrl, Ctrl+Alt for specific mounts) and bound F7 to one of the mouse buttons.

I have a numberpad on my keyboard, so with Griffon as the default (X), I use NumPad 1-3 for Raptor, Springer, and Skimmer respectively, and 0 for Jackal.

I put the mounts on Ctrl + 1 to Ctrl + 5. Ctrl + F to call the default mount.

I'm rarely in THAT big of a hurry to swap that I can't move my left hand, so I went:Raptor: 'Springer: ;Skimmer: LJackal: .I don't have the Gryphon yet. Normally I leave the mount selection on Jackal, so I can just hit 'X' for it...or whatever else is most appropriate for what I'm doing at the time.

As for the other keybinds...I still use WASD, but moved strafe left/right to A/D (from Q and E), 6 to left shift, 7 to Q, 8 to E, 9 to C, 0 and - to buttons on the mouse. Makes a HUGE difference in my game play.

F6, F7, F8, F9. I don't have a griffon.

I have mine all in close proximity which helps me switch mounts quickly in mid-stride.My buttons (and mount names which nobody asked for) are:

G - (Val O. C.) RaptorB - (Jerry) SpringerH - (Hans) Skimmer(man)N - (Carlos the) JackalJ - (Peter) Griffon

N for mounts, and Ctrl+Space for Griffon (so I can always use it when falling).

I use Shift + 1/2/3/4/5 (Raptor- Griffon)This feels natural for me because my little finger hovers around Ctrl/Shift, and I use a Razer Naga.

I have an MMO mouse (this exact one), and my binds are:

left ctrl + 1 for raptorleft ctrl + 2 for springerleft ctrl + 4 for skimmerleft ctrl + 5 for jackalleft ctrl + the button next to lmb (which I have bound to 0 as well) for griffon

This is the easiest way for me, my thumb just knows exactly where to be placed in a compact 2x2 button configuration for the four "basic" mounts, and the "special" griffon has a button away from the others to differentiate it. I only need to move my left pinky finger down a bit to reach the ctrl key. If/when another mount is added... well, I guess I'll cross that bridge when it comes. ;)

My keyboard has a number pad on the right, and the number pad does not work for the usual attack controls. So I have bound the number pad to the mounts: 1=Raptor, 2=Springer, etc.

It only gets a little confusing now and then when my brain is telling me 5 for Griffon and I press the normal 5 key and do a spinning attack.
