Is there any way to make strafing run not require freeing the mouse? otherwise it really kinda sucks :P. I'd appreciate if someone could tell me the answer..

    Well, I use the following bind so I can just shift+left click to cast it wherever I happen to be looking:

    [The below assumes Strafing Run is in power slot 3]

    /bind lshift+lbutton "+powertrayexec 2"

    Or play with free-mouse on at all times, like me.

    There's a reason that strafing run works the way it does. If it was as easy to use as any of the other tab-target attacks in this game, that would be patently ridiculous.

    Your answer is no.


    You only have two options:

    Use your mouse.
    Use a controller with a key bound to a mouse click.


    A possible third option is to get one of those programs that allows you to rebind a keyboard key to a mouse click. However, if you're using neither a mouse nor a controller, then I'm not sure how you would aim your strafing run with this, other than planting your mouse on your feet and settling for the power being a pbaoe, in effect self-nerfing.

    smoochan why exactly do you say it would be ridiculous for strafing run to be easily usable? its not like it actually hits that hard unless you are a glass cannon crit build or something with high end gear.

    Because it actually hits hard even if you're not a glass cannon crit build.


    The fact that you actually typed the phrase "high end gear" makes me think you're being sarcastic.
