Sometimes it's hard, but it really does make things so much easier than being close to dying and thinking, "Where is my OH SHIT! button?!" <abbr><em>Anea’s last blog post..<a href="http://holydiscipline.wordpress.com/2009/05/14/musings-on-aemma-and-tanking/" rel="nofollow">Musings on Aemma and tanking</a></abbr></em> Category titles were funny :>

I actually was going to post about this myself – on my alts, I try to associate similar situational settings and matching them to where my priest’s keybindings are. Sometimes it’s hard, but it really does make things so much easier than being close to dying and thinking, “Where is my OH SHIT! button?!”

I try to put similar abilities in the same spot across all my alts just so that when crap hits the fan I'm not trying to over-ride my raiding instincts. <abbr><em>Tigerfeet’s last blog post..<a href="http://secretagentcat.wordpress.com/2009/05/11/through-the-eyes-of-the-tiger/" rel="nofollow">Through The Eyes of The Tiger</a></abbr></em> I do this too!

But I don't play my healers very much, so I forgot to add that :) The mana regen ones make sense too Faulsey, I haven't tried binding those together. I'm sure Evocation could probably fit in there as well! I try to keep my healing abilities in the same spot too, and I keep my “quick heal” and “big heal” and “HoT” on the same buttons.

I like to keep on hand the "Buff a Random Stranger That I Meet on the Road" button -- abilities like Blessings, Arcane Intellect, Mark of the Wild, or Power Word: Fortitude. I also tend to keep my healing abilities in the same general location, and in some cases, I also have a "Get Off My Healer!" button, like taunts and growls.

If my druid was a caster, innervate would be bound to the same key, and when my Paladin gets it, Seal of Wisdom will be.
