Heres the main ones I use, not includin all the reformatting of preset keybinds that I do. If anyone finds em useful

Combat Numbers Popup bind:
/bind ., "toggle combatnumbers $$ windowscale combatnumbers 0.75"

Targetting bind:
/bind x say >>> $target <<<

I have some really wicked binds for Peacebringers, but I don't have em written down anywhere =/

edit: also travel power bind:

/bind t "powexec_toggleon super jump$$powexec_toggleon combat jumping"

^ also works for hover/fly

These are my binds that I use to dance between the Kheldian forms using C,V & B keys.

Peacebringer binds:

/bind C "powexectoggleon Bright Nova$$targetenemynear$$targetcustomnext void$$targetcustomnext quantum$$powexecname Bright nova scatter$$gototray 3"
:- place your Nova powers in tray 3 in the order that you want them.
:- hit c and it changes you to Nova form, targets the nearest enemy, Void or Q, changes you to tray 3 for the Nova powers, hit it again and it cues Nova scatter.

/bind V "powexectoggleoff bright nova$$powexectoggleoff White Dwarf$$powexectoggleon Thermal Shield$$powexectoggleon shining shield$$gototray 1"
:- place your human form powers how you like them.
:- changes you to human form from either Nova or Dwarf form, changes to tray1 and powers a shield up, press again to toggle on next shield. (NOTE: shields will power up in reverse order to their placing. In above case shining shield, then thermal will activate on pressing V again.)

/bind B "powexec_toggleon White Dwarf$$powexec_name goto_tray 4"
:- Place your Dwarf powers in tray 4 how you like them.
:- you can add the Void and Q targeting to this if you like but I just have 'N' setup for that.

/bind N "target_custom_next Void$$Target_custom_next Quantum"

I leave tray 2 for my support human powers so that I can see when they are recharged to use. Above binds can be used for both PB and WS builds, swap power names where needed.
With my WS I move into a group in human form with shadow cloak (provided they can't see me of course), Sunless Mire and then 'B' to dwarf, hit B again to Mire in dwarf, Let the smiting begin.

I think I can compact this a little for you.

You should be able to use "targetcustomnext teammate" on say NUMPAD1.
This should cycle through the team mates.

Then /bind the powers of your choice to the other NUMPAD#s

ie: /bind NUMPAD1 "targetcustomnext teammate"
then: /bind NUMPAD2 "powexecname Speed Boost"

Utilizing just 2 buttons to cycle and buff. It doesn't target the specific teammate, but for kins you can place them together ie:
/bind NUMPAD1 "powexecname speed boost$$targetcustomnext teammate"

That should do it, if it doesn't swap them around. I know it works one way, thats how I buff my Imps (/bind n "powexecname speed boost$$targetcustomnext mypet" or "targetcustomnext mypet$$powexecname Speed Boost", can't remember which it is)

For the other powersets you can use the 4,5 & 2 NUMPAD keys.
ie: /bind NUMPAD1 "targetcustomnext teammate"
then:
/bind NUMPAD4 "powexecname <power>"
/bind NUMPAD5 "powexecname <power>"
/bind NUMPAD2 "powexecname <power>"

So NUMPAD1 cycles your team and then use 4,5 & 2 for the respective buff, cutting out the need for SHIFT & ALT key usage.

Now I haven't used the above binds, except for the Kinetic ones, so not 100% that it'll work but it should in theory

PS: you can bind ALL your toggles to the one key:
/bind T "powexectoggleon <power>$$powexectoggleon <power> etc etc etc"
This will activate your toggles in the order of last to first in the command line. It won't skip a power if recharging though, it will cue it.

So say for a scrapper with regen, fighting, leadership & Epic:
/bind T "powexectoggleon focused accuracy$$powexectoggleon tactics$$powexectoggleon assault$$powexectoggleon maneuvers$$powexectoggleon weave$$powexectoggleon tough$$powexectoggleon intergration"

Powers in order would be: INTERGRATION, TOUGH, WEAVE, MANEUVERS, ASSAULT, TACTICS then FA.
(Now you may want FA to be switchable due to endurance costs, depends on your build. In which case use "powexecname focused accuracy" instead)

You can place a "powexecname <power>" at the begining if you like too.(obviously you can't if using the above example)
I have Hasten there. Each time I hit 'T' it turns on a toggle. Then once all are running each time I press it I can activate Hasten if recharged, also should a toggle have 'dropped' it'll activate it again

Question about the first bind under Empath. Where did you put that bind and what's it supposed to do?

(Have the others but forget to use the bind keys (or use them in the wrong order. )

It is the addition (+) key on the number pad. Any time you press it, it activates healing aura.

One thing I started doing a while ago, after all these binds was written, was to put the second shield power from FF and Ice and Sonic onto the numpadadd key. You target the teammate with the initial numpad number, then hit the add key to give the second shield. This way the shift, alt, and ctrl keys do not need to be pressed.


A few more binds.

/bind NUMPAD9 "assist" (This targets the target of who yuo have currently... everyone needs to have this bind.)

/bind add "powexec_name Sonic Haven"

/bind numpad1 "+ $$Team_Select 1$$powexec_name Ice Shield"
/bind numpad2 "+ $$Team_Select 2$$powexec_name Ice Shield"
/bind numpad3 "+ $$Team_Select 3$$powexec_name Ice Shield"
/bind numpad4 "+ $$Team_Select 4$$powexec_name Ice Shield"
/bind numpad5 "+ $$Team_Select 5$$powexec_name Ice Shield"
/bind numpad6 "+ $$Team_Select 6$$powexec_name Ice Shield"
/bind numpad7 "+ $$Team_Select 7$$powexec_name Ice Shield"
/bind numpad8 "+ $$Team_Select 8$$powexec_name Ice Shield"

/bind add "powexec_name Glacial Shield"



/bind numpad1 "+ $$Team_Select 1$$powexec_name Deflection Shield"
/bind numpad2 "+ $$Team_Select 2$$powexec_name Deflection Shield"
/bind numpad3 "+ $$Team_Select 3$$powexec_name Deflection Shield"
/bind numpad4 "+ $$Team_Select 4$$powexec_name Deflection Shield"
/bind numpad5 "+ $$Team_Select 5$$powexec_name Deflection Shield"
/bind numpad6 "+ $$Team_Select 6$$powexec_name Deflection Shield"
/bind numpad7 "+ $$Team_Select 7$$powexec_name Deflection Shield"
/bind numpad8 "+ $$Team_Select 8$$powexec_name Deflection Shield"

/bind add "powexec_name Insulation Shield"

/bind O "powexec_name Aid Self"


/bind V "powexec_name super jump$$powexec_name combat jumping"




These are mouse controls for speed boost, but can be easily changed to any of the other buffing powers. I made these during the Hami raids when I was on taunt team. This way you did not have to be on the team, just near it and can still easily buff all that are near you.

/bind shift+mbutton "powexec_name Speed Boost"
/bind alt+mbutton "powexec_name Increase Density"
/bind shift+BUTTON4 "target_friend_near$$powexec_name Speed Boost"
/bind shift+BUTTON5 "target_friend_next"
/bind shift+BUTTON5 "target_friend_next$$powexec_name Speed Boost"

Another example for sonic shields.

/bind shift+mbutton "powexec_name Sonic Barrier"
/bind alt+mbutton "powexec_name Sonic Haven"
/bind ctrl+mbutton "powexec_name Clarity"
/bind shift+BUTTON4 "target_friend_near"
/bind shift+BUTTON5 "target_friend_next"
/bind add "powexec_name Sonic Haven"
/bind shift+add "powexec_name Sonic Barrier"
/bind subtract "powexec_name Clarity"
/bind [ "powexec_name Sonic Barrier"
/bind ] "powexec_name Sonic Haven"


I use the "o" button for oh crap powers... or the number "0" for those which have more than one.

/bind O "+ $$powexec_name Transfusion$$target_enemy_near"
/bind O "powexec_name Aid Self"



/bind P "+ $$powexec_name siphon speed$$target_enemy_near"

You actually have to have the toggles for this to work...

/bind alt+G "powexec_name Accelerate metabolism"
/bind SHIFT+G "team Gather for Accelerate Metabolism (AM) if you want the buff!!"
/macro AM "team Gather for AM if you want the buff"
/macro RI "team $target has Radiation Infection$$powexec_toggleon Radiation Infection"
/macro EF "team $target has Enervating Field$$powexec_toggleon Enervating Field"
/macro LR "team $target has Lingering Radiation$$powexec_name Lingering Radiation"

/bind numpad0 "powexec_toggleon Enervating Field$$powexec_toggleon Radiation Infection"

Thanks. Usually have healing aura on "spam" so there isn't much worry about that.

Now I want to play my emp. Anyone want company? She plays nice with others.

Wait ... somehow that doesn't sound right.

The problem I have with this is that "targetcustomnext teammate" actually works more like target NEAREST teammate... It does not cycle through the team LIST. Also, as you mention, you can't target a specific teammate that may need a little extra help.

I've tried incorporating the teamselect into my binds, but have not been able to get it to work the way I want (cycle through team list). I even tried it in a rotating bind (one key cycles through the team list), but it always got hung up at whatever point in the list I was at.... since I couldn't target myself, the command couldn't complete and move on to the next.

*facepalm*
Doh! why didn't I think of that?! friggin brilliant



I do have some powers set to fire on a downpress/release. One power fires on the downpress, the other on the release. The trick is to use the "+" in combination with the "toggleon" command. It can force a click power to behave like a toggle power within the command string. Here are some examples:

"+ $$powexec_toggleon Aim$$powexec_toggleon Build Up"
"+ $$powexec_toggleon Nova$$powexec_toggleon Conserve Power"
"+ $$powexec_toggleon Increase Density$$powexec_toggleon Speed Boost"

The last power in the string will fire first on the downpress. Then, since they are being labled as "toggles" the next power will fire on the release.

For doing this with powers that ARE toggles (not clicks), you may need to work the toggleoff command into the string.
"+ $$powexec_toggleoff sprint$$powexec_toggleoff combat jumping$$powexec_toggleon sprint$$powexec_toggleon combat jumping"

IOW, to make the first down/up turn stuff on, and the second down/up turn stuff off. I understand several folks with Keld builds do this for switching between forms, though I don't know if I have the right of it.

NOTE: It is necessary to use a "paused press" technique with these binds. Else, if the release is too quick, it will just que up the last power again.

Here is some info I came across while looking into this sometime back:

Quote:


*** A note about the "+" and "++" prefixes in some of these commands ***

The short explanation of the + and ++ prefixes is that they represent how persistently the command will be carried out. Most of these keybindings represent "press and fire" commands -- that is, you press down on the button and the action will be performed once, until the button is pressed again.

With a "+" prefix the command will be carried out for as long as the button is pressed down, and ceases as soon as the button is no longer being pressed. For example, the default binding for the w key is +forward. For as long as the w key is pressed down your character will continue moving forward... but as soon as the button is no longer being pressed, the character stops moving.

With a "++" prefix the command will be toggled "on" and will continue to be activated until the button is pressed again, toggling it "off." If the w key were bound to ++forward, pressing the w key once would cause the character to move forward, and that character would continue to move forward until the w key were pressed again.

Any command that has a + prefix can work with a ++ prefix, and vice versa. This can lead to some redundant commands. For example, ++forward works exactly the same as ++autorun -- you run until you turn the command off.




Through trial and error, I've formed the following theory on how the "+" modifier works in binding.

The "+" modifier has two behaviors.
Behavior one: at all times when "+" is prepended to a command, it is the same as doing "command 1". Obviously this only works correctly on commands that take 1 or 0 as input. When other commands are prepended with it, it adds the 1 to the end of the arguments, and gives an error. This behavior is mirrored by the "-" modifier, which yields argument 0.

Behavior two: ( Only when directly in the bind.. in other words this does not work when made a macro which you then bind to a key! )when prepended to the first command in a bind (assuming that command is one that works with it, ie takes 1/0 argument), it gives the entire bind statement a "press/unpress" behavior. This means two things:

* a) the command prepended with the "+" turns on (aka is given argument 1) when you press the key as you would expect per behavior 1. Additionally it turns off (argument 0) when you unpress the key
* b) the rest of the commands in the bind are performed once when you press the key, and again when you unpress it

Note that this behavior is not mirrored by the "-" modifier.. it might be nice if it did at least the first part, ie turn a command off when you press the key and back on when you unpress, but it doesn't.

Side note: I am actually a bit surprised that they decided to overload the use of the "+" in this way. It seems to me it would have been more intuitive and useful to have another character modifier (> for instance) to prepend to a bind statement (without a necessary command after it) to extend the second behavior, with the addition that any commands following in the statement with a "+" would work in the on/off manner when press/unpressed instead of just the first one.

The secondary behavior of the "+" in binds makes several useful things possible. Especially when you realize that the first command doesn't always have to do something, since you can always override it with a "-" form of it elsewhere in the bind. For instance a simple yet very useful bind for fly which makes you fly only while you hold down "f":

* /bind f "+up$$-up$$powexec_name Fly"



Another behavior can be achieved by exploiting the "overwrite" effect of powers (aka if several powers are entered one after the other in a bind, only the last one will go off in most cases). A very useful binding for getting out of melee range quickly with hover is:

* /bind v "+up$$powexec_name Hover$$powexec_name Hover"


This makes you jump and then hover up in the air just out of melee range. Note the doubling up of the hover power.. this is because if you only have it once in the bind, it will turn hover on when you press it and off when you let go (usually.. sometimes the hover from press and hover from unpress go through together and one gets overwritten, but this is rare). Why doesn't it turn on/off quickly when you press it and on/off quickly when you let go if you enter it twice? Because of the power overwrite effect.. while it is busy doing the jump when you press the button down, both hovers go through and the second overwrites the first, resulting in hover being turned on. When you let go, it stops the jump and both hovers go through, turning hover off and back on very quickly (before you drop) resulting in you being left in hover mode. This causes a bit of spam to your combat messages window, but it's worth it. Note: the differing behavior here (ie overwrite happening on press but not on unpress) I believe is due to the interaction between commands and powers on timing in a bind, but this is just a guess.

I couldn't get variation of selection between NUMPAD1 and alt+NUMPAD1. Very disconcerting hitting Absorb Pain and not being able to heal until I figured out what was going on.

To settle it I'm going to shift Absorb Pain into the "0" slot. Then I can hit Heal Others and if that isn't enough I can go ahead and hit the "0" for the big heal.

trying to hit the alt key and numpad key is a pain sometimes. I rarely used it on my emp. I still have it though.

One of my all-time fav binds:

/bind b "++up"

Makes you bounce in place, or on the run, great for SJ or ascending quick if using fly, it's a staple for all my toons. That and the tarzan yell.
