Keyboard Movement - Experimental
Season 2 introduces a new experimental version of keyboard-based movement (aka WASD) controls to Last Epoch. Players can change their movement binds through the ‘Controls’ section in the settings menu.
- You can enable Keyboard Movement in the Gameplay tab in Settings.
- Keyboard movement has a different set of default hotkeys.
- Keyboard movement control mapping is independent of Point and Click movement. This means changes to one set of controls won’t affect the other.
- You can adjust how movement skills behave with keyboard movement, such as specifying that all movement skills follow your cursor instead of your character’s direction.
- Channeled abilities that force continuous movement (e.g. Warpath) will move towards the cursor if a WASD direction is not held. This ensures mechanical parity between input modes (i.e. movement conditional buffs such as “while standing still” benefit each input mode equally).
