I poked around with all the characters until finally deciding to settle on the Vampiress. While I like the game so far, I'm a little confused as to how best use/control the combat arts. I'm level 17 now so I have 4 slots for weapons and 4 for the CAs. Thing is, how best do I switch between them? Clicking on each button in the lower right is kind of clunky and slow, particularly when I'm swarmed. Do you just make sure to use combos all the time? Or reassign them to more useful buttons than 6-0?

Thanks a lot. As I get further along I'd like to play more efficiently.

The standard layout of the game is just crap! Because you cant change it directly in game, I am using Autohotkey to build my own layout.

The Sacred Part of my Script looks at the moment like this:

sacredHotkeys := true

#IfWinActive ahk_class Sacred
SendMode Play
F13 & F12::sacredHotkeys := !sacredHotkeys
CapsLock & F12::sacredHotkeys := !sacredHotkeys
*F9::Send {F8}
*F5::Send {F9}
*F8::Send {}
*CapsLock::Send {I}
*F13::Send {I}
Tab::SendEvent {L}
*XButton1::Send {M}

#If sacredHotkeys AND WinActive("ahk_class Sacred")
SendMode Play
*Q::Send {6}
*W::Send {7}
*E::Send {8}
*R::Send {9}
*T::Send {0}
*A::Send {1}
*S::Send {2}
*D::Send {3}
*F::Send {4}
*G::Send {5}
*Space::Send {A}
*1::Send {Space}
*2::Send {Q}
*3::Send {W}
*4::Send {E}
*5::Send {R}
Explanation:
F13 and CapsLock are the same, because I usually replace this stupid key by F13.
Q-T: CombatArts
A-G: Weapons
1-5: Potions
CapsLock + F12: Toggle for the most of this changes, so you can deactive the Hotkeys and type text.
Tab: Log
Space: TakeAll
F5: QuickSave
F9: QuickLoad
4. Mousebutton: Map
CapsLock should be the Inventar, but doesnt work in the actual script.

Edit: In case you dont want to use Authotkey to customize the layout and you didnt knew it: you can also change the CombatArts with the keys 6-0.

It's a really bad ui, but a great game with so much content.


I just hold my left hand over 6789 or whatever the numbers are, and my right hand on the mouse.

No real way around it :( apart from that guy ^
I will definitely be trying those out, thanks. Now if only I could get a zoom level somewhere between the furthest level of zoom and the next furthest and I'd be all set. Since I find one is too far away and the other two are too close.
Sorry there is no way without modding the game itself, and I dont know that someone has done it yet.

The biggest problem in my opinion is the resolution, it is just to low for the furthest zoom level (you loose many details). But here you have the same problem, that it isnt possible to change the resolution without modding and that I dont know about any successful modding regarding the resolution.
