The Keyboard Settings window
Open it from SHORTCUT → Keys on the status bar. It's the authentic classic key-config screen:
- Drag an ability or emote from the tray at the bottom onto any key to bind it.
- Drag a skill from the Skill window (K) straight onto a key — attack skills, buffs and potions all work.
- Drag a bound key onto another key to move the binding.
- Drag a binding off the keyboard to remove it.
- Press OK to save — Cancel or Esc discards your changes.
Quickslots
The right end of the status bar holds your quickslot keys — the arrow button expands or collapses them. Whatever you bind to those keys shows there with its icon, so your potions and buffs are always one glance away.
Tip: bind Red Potions to a comfortable key before your first Red
Snail. Future you says thanks.
