    Hello, I'll give you an illustration to
    my problem so that you understand: I
    am a poacher with hunting arrow on
    my left click and marksmanship on
    my right click (and dispersion of
    shooting as a "tab") except that I also
    use regularly blow so I put on my
    keyboard shortcuts. The problem is
    that when I leave this key keyboard,
    competence is active only once so I'm
    forced to spam my key to do this
    several times, which is quite annoying
    in the long run, so I wanted whether it
    was possible to use a skill on the
    keyboard shortcuts without
    spamming my keyboard keys to the
    action is too "fluid" when I use my
    mouse? (I know also that I can simply
    solve this problem by putting this
    skill on mouse shortcuts but this is
    not what I want.) Thank you for your
    future responses and good day /
    evening.

    Get a mouse with more buttons or a programmable keyboard, I guess.

    Consider investing in a gaming keypad. That is what I did and, though it takes some getting used to it really made a big difference. I purchased the Tartarus Razer. It costs about $50 on average new, but I got mine used for $30. It really is a good investment. You can even use the program Razer Synapse to program different key sets (aka "Maps") that you can change with a simple click.

    If I'm understanding his problem right, neither of these will address his grievance. He is frustrated that he cand hold down a key on the keyboard and have it auto attack until you release it like you can with a mouse. A game pad would still have you mashing the same button repeatedly, same with programmable buttons on a mouse. The only exception is if those keys/buttons were programmed with a basic macro that would "tap" the key in question until you release the key/button. However, if I remember right, macros are "no-nos" and would be violating the T&Cs.

    In short, it would be nice if BP added that functionality (push and hold for continuous attack) to keyboard buttons so that people wouldn't have to look for "alternatives."
