Looking for a Gameplay Build with Minimal Mouse Use

-

I’m seeking recommendations for a build that minimizes mouse usage due to my tendonitis. Ideally, I want something similar to flicker strike where I can hold the mouse buttons as little as possible. Any ideas or better suggestions would be appreciated!

Have you thought about switching to a controller? It’s been a game-changer for me! My hands feel way better, and the controller support isn’t half bad for gaming. Just a thought!

Thanks for the tip! I just bought one, hoping it helps!

CWS is a solid option, definitely worth checking out!

I totally stand by using a controller. I’m playing a RF build, and it’s been a lifesaver for my wrist issues. You might also want to consider PoeGuy’s siege ballista build. You just set them up, and they do the aiming for you! Minions can work, but they’re a bit iffy for damage, might be better next league.

Thanks for the input, I really appreciate it!

You could also look into a CWS build. I’m planning to have her try one tonight after I adjust my tree and gems.

Have you tried rebinding your movement to a keyboard key instead of relying on the left click? It’s helped me a lot! You could use the space bar for movement, and spells on keys D and F to keep things low-stress.

I’ll give that a shot! Thanks!
