For example, some change their movement keys to E, S, D, F to open up additional key-binding options. While certain key bindings are preset, like W, A, S, and D (for movement), many players prefer to re-map these bindings to keys they like better. Instead of clicking an icon in their action bar or navigating through a menu to use an ability, players simply press a key on their keyboard or a button on their mouse, saving them time and extra steps in the heat of battle. Key bindings are a staple for many World of Warcraft players due to the flexibility and mobility they provide.
New Player Tips is a recurring feature in which we ask World of Warcraft veterans to share their thoughts and advice for new adventurers on a variety of in-game topics.
