Zero

Zero Control?

What are your keyboard layouts for your zero class? Currently I'm using the simple ctrl, shift, a, s, x, etc keys, but I feel like I'm not using my zero to the full advantage.

What moves would you put together (close together on the keyboard) in order to optimize control and efficiency?

Thanks!

This is mine. Works extremely well. I'm a big fan of the triangle setup utilizing 'r' 'x' and 'v'.

My layout is just

ASDF
ZXCV

Beta skills on ASDF from highest lv (giga crash) > lowest lv (air riot)
Alpha skills are the same
Buffs go on QWER

My layout works really nice.

Ctrl (air riot skill) Shift (moon strike)

A (assaulter) S (Flash Cut) D (Wind Cutter) F (Giga Crash)

X (rolling cross) C (the skill that goes into betas tornado)

A+S, D+F, and X+C are the main combos you will use. Uses ctrl and shift when you need spamable skills.

Buffs 1,2,3,4
Alpha q w e r
beta a s d f

Keep it simple, don't overcomplicate things guys. Maybe avoid carpal tunnel.

(In order, i.e. combo 1,2,3,4)
Alpha: a, x, c, alt
Beta: d, v, b, spacebar.
Combo 1 of both isnt really used often anymore,thats why it's shoved aside. But the rest are all close together and I find it very comfortable

I put my first combos on Shift and Ctrl (Shift being Shadow Strike, Ctrl being Air Riot)

Then I put the rest of my Beta combos on D, F, and V for comfort and being my left hand keys.
The rest of my Alpha combos are on A (Dashing Cut thing), Delete (Rolling Cross), Pg Dwn for Wind Strike thing.

The most important thing is to put them into a comfortable position or else playing Zero will break your hands quickly and create a cap for how efficient you can play it. Toy around and think of a comfortable setup for you that doesn't hurt your hands for prolonged play.
