I apologize if this has already been covered. Does anyone know if it's possible to use the numeric keypad as hotkeys for your skills? This would be very useful for those of us with smaller hands, who can't quite get to the numbers on the keyboard fast enough. Just a though...

You can do this via the keyboard setup screen in the options menu.

i've tried and couldn't get it to work. pissed me off. i wanted to use it for moving about because i'm used to ffxi controls, but for some reason the numeric keypad just doesn't work. at least for me.

The numpad works for me so I don't know what you're missing.

Currently I have the following setup through the keyboard options for the numpad:

Do It = Numpad Enter
Show Others = Numpad 3
Reverse Camera = Numpad Period
Strafe Left = Numpad 4
Strafe Right = Numpad 6
Show Targets = Numpad 9
Target Next = Numpad 7
Target Previous = Numpad 1
Target Priority = Numpad Minus
Target Self = Numpad Asterisk
Move Backward = Numpad 2
Move Forward = Numpad 8
Reverse Direction = Numpad 0
Automatic Run = Numpad 5
Target Nearest Ally = Numpad Plus

If you want to use the numpad for selecting powers from your hot bar make sure to change the following:

Use Skill 1 = Numpad 1
Use Skill 2 = Numpad 2
Use Skill 3 = Numpad 3
Use Skill 4 = Numpad 4
Use Skill 5 = Numpad 5
Use Skill 6 = Numpad 6
Use Skill 7 = Numpad 7
Use Skill 8 = Numpad 8
