You would be surpised. The reason you think it's easier is b/c you have trained your eyes to go there. If you commit to 2 weeks the other way you may never go back after your eyes are re-trained.
@@Voce24 EXACTLY, that would be the most ideal. ie Barrage Rogue with the combo strat. you need to see if your combo procs off 1 hit or 3.... Impossible to see in corner OR center.
With the exception of cooldowns, we can now put health and resource bars above our character in S5 :). I would like some better cooldown monitoring options though for sure.
I actually had the HUD on the left by default and moved it to the center. I find it way easier to keep track of my HP and cooldowns this way without having my eyes to bounce back and forth from the corner.
Looking slightly down in the center also means less straining on the eyes than looking down in the left corner. It's in fact the natural resting position of the eyes.
One thing not mentioned for the high contrast cursor is that the circle just below that setting lets you choose a color for the cursor. So if bright white isn't good enough you can change the color to something else. I made mine like a light blue/cyan type color and I find that helps me keep track of where my cursor is when things get crazy on screen with all the ground effects.
7:40 just assign force move to the mouse scroll wheel, as you spin the wheel past each click it registers an individual force move, so you can unlock the wheel and spin it like the wheel of fortune
I didn't realize how many of these issues would get resolved by simply using a controller. I used it mostly to diminish my carpal tunnel but the gameplay feels more natural. Love it and can't see myself reverting to mouse and keyboard.
That's what my wife said, when she was editing, that he controller solved a lot of these problems ☺️. She plays on the controller even when playing on the PC.
@OwnModeGaming my game experience really did get 1000% better, but I might still need to tweak some options because the attack action trumps the pick-up action, so whenever I want to pick something up but there's an enemy within line of sight, it will prioritize attacking the enemy. I'll try the first couple of tips, those look useful. Thanks brother.
@@OwnModeGaming controller is where its at. I even use it for FPS games on PC. Mouse and keyboard are a little more accurate to use. But the fluidity and comfort of using a controller is unmatched
I love playing these games M/KB...BUt I really should transition to controller because I don't want to wreck my wrists any more than I already have. I know I can adapt, too...As I played D3 on the PS3 and had no problems.
A great of reducing eye fatigue its to turn off vertical sync, only use this option if your monitor or gpu cant use more than 60 fps which in this case seing you're playing in 2K it makes vertical sync is causing tear in the visuals without you even realizing it
Glad I watched this. I never thought of using asdf for skills instead of the numbers despite me knowing how to type. This will solve a lot of keyboard discomfort for me. Asdf feels so natural.
Yeah, it really helps! I sometimes to change it when jumping into a new game i'm just testing out and I get tired of that quickly and just take the time.
@@CNMBTLJN I love using ASDF as my skill keys… it’s much more comfortable & I’ve been using for ages in D3; it was one of the first things I did on day 1 of D4 😁
So an update. I changed over to asdf and what a difference it makes. I moved health potion to r and dismount to g. So much easier now. I may move inventory to e because that feels natural compared to several other games I play that use e as inventory. Next up - direct neural connections so I can just think the command. lol.
I just set the mouse scroll wheel to force move & use it to move instead of clicking. It's something I learned from d3 & I also setup the num lock trick for putting my skills on auto. This allows me to spam all keys by scrolling on the wheel while holding shift, + both my mouse buttons down. All I do is watch my health & dodge while doing that with my current build. You can also set a custom crosshair color, which can be helpful to make it more visible at all times. If you are on PC, disabling cross play makes the game less laggy due to not having so much work. The result is you will see fewer players, but be unable to play/communicate with console users, & you might have to restart the game every time you want to change that option.
The advanced tooltips suggestions were fantastic! I've been playing Diablo since Diablo 1 came out when I was a sophomore in college, and even I want the descriptions of the myriad of different skill modifiers of each of my items on by default! So many great tips and suggestions in this video. I'm a first-time viewer but I'm now a subscriber! Thanks!
For those unfamiliar with Diablo, the HUD has always been in the center since the first game. Modern games tend to put the HUD in the bottom left corner, so in D3 (I think) they added that option.
I was interested to watch this and then you said “make you feel tired when you’re not” and I literally will play this when I have trouble sleeping or need to go to bed earlier than normal cuz as much as I enjoy the game it’s very easy for me to fall alseep in the chair controller/mouse in hand
Last non voluntary "nap" while gaming I was sitting with one foot under the thigh and 4h like that and the whole foot and ankle was totally numb. It took more than a week to get any feeling back and I can't tell you how many times I twisted/sprained it at first. Not recommended! Funny thing is that I ofc get the tip about sleeping in the bed is better and last year after someone gave that tip again I went to bed and I wake up the next day and my left hand was numb and unusable. The irony. 😂 Lucky it wasn't my dominant hand since that took 4 or 5 months to go back to normal, this with my foot is 3x faster tho. And did someone say that sleeping when on the toilet is awesome? It's not. :> What's also fun is that I have sever insomnia but some days I fall asleep sitting quite easily. I'd never drive during those. But if I'm not alone I never fall asleep like that. Oh well I hope you got some laugh from this at least, I've accepted and don't mind that it's just a part of what makes me being me. 😊
@@Chaawuu1 More or less. I mean it's less of an issue these days. Especially with everything else my body does wrong. ^^ Also I mean I can only compare vs myself so it's all I know and will be so after finding what works best it's only accepting it left, not 'only' as in easy ofc.
OMG... Thank you soooo much for these tips!! I can't believe I've been playing this for over a year and I didn't even think about checking some of the settings... I snickered when you said that you use ASDF for your skills... I've always HATED 1234 even in D3 I've been using ASDF for my skills.... now its like second nature :D I just applied several of the recommendations... now to see how it changes the game :) Cheers!!!
Found this video today and a huge thank you, I don't often have time to deep dive guides or tutorials. This was a perfect short and to the point guide!
When you do the Windowed Fullscreen option, also scroll down in the tab and make sure to check Lock Cursor. This confines your cursor to the game window, and because you're windowed fullscreen Alt Tabbing will keep the game up on your main monitor while allowing you to penetrate the screen barrier to whatever you're doing on your side monitors. This way you can prevent from accidentally clicking on a bunch of furry pron while having an intense fight with Lillith. Or so my friend tells me could happen.
That is solid. I like the free flow. I’m always watching something on my second monitor and I like controlling it without leaving my gaming position. Saying that I have definitely flown off the screen at some of the worse times.
thankyou for these tips, as a gamer that doesn't play a lot it will be very beneficial for me. also having the hud to the left has made it a lot easier for me cheers
The whole problem you're describing with the "combine move/interact?basic skill" option can be avoided by using a keybind to move. Been using the spacebar to move since Diablo II after a friend recommended it, and I haven't changed it since, still very nice way to play
I like the space bar for move, I tend to like evade there, it's a big button to get me out of trouble 😄. I have also used it to hold in place when i'm using force move setup using another key to move.
Talking about the cursor, changing the color of it helps me a lot, i get lost most of the time where my pointer is with heavy mobs, changed mine to lime green
Thx for the Tips! Really useful 😊 We need more customizeable Options to track buffs/debuffs. Basically we need Addons in D4 like in WoW. Gimme Weakauras/Details or at least let me move and scale/show/hide buffs ...
Great Tips! The HUD on the left I changed since the Beta, but some of these I was not aware of as I do little keybinding, i never read through all these. Thanks for the video!
Not sure if you knew this but instead of changing basic skill to another key completely, keep it as all the same but hold shift down instead to stand in place and use your basic skill without moving. Shift plus left click is less strain then G and leaves your hand closer for your other skills with shift key holding
That was pretty helpful. I had already applied about half of what you mentioned, but the other half was new. I am currently typing this on my second monitor, and I can now hear the background music!
Great tips, I would add one that I only found after a while is sharpen image, for some reason mine was to zero, 30 is my best setting, I remember being frustrated at how crappy my game looked even with a decent gpu. Sharpen Image made it glorious
Take this as a contribution to the vid. Some of these are much simpler to change. Some weren't exactly correct. First what I wouldn't agree on. Hud/left. You move the health bar all the way to the edge and it's right next to the resource one. Seeing that info easier is more important for me on HC, especially with 27" monitor and not sitting way back. Not worth it to maybe see something that's still far enough away and it is only when it's from that angle it does anything so left/right/up doesn't get any pro of using it, also left side gets blocked somewhat instead of the bottom so with that I think you can get why I'm not on the same page. It's worse if you have a resource closer in color to health it's easy to mistake one or the other. For SC then I can see the it being used, esthetic only tho. Windowed vs Full. With a dual monitor setup having the slightly faster time getting the game back in focus is worth it to use Windowed and it makes it smoother going back and forth between game/browser. You can just lock cursor and it's like Full-screen mode. Also full can often get hidden if you switch to browser and that's not very good for HC. Can't recall if D4 does that atm tho. If you have a slow PC Full will help with performance a little bit. Then what can be done in a more simple way. Don't need to remove combined buttons. Just bind something like mouse button 5 for force move, no need to change anything from the regular bindings you'd use unless you use mb5 for something already then just choose another one. For the rest they are okay and some are basic stuff people miss so it's good to remind about them. 👍 Hope you don't mind some constructive critic. Much is personal preference, just not all. ❤
awsome, honestly, i'm thankful that you've pointed these out, and I will go ahead and shut them off, what drives me nuts, is trying to hit Q , to heal potion, and hitting tab instead, especially when I NEED the heal.
I won't do some of these because i have most of my skills on mouse buttons because i like to sit back while i play games and not have my left hand hovering over my keyboard. It makes for better posture for me and reduces the chance of getting shoulder pain.
Hiya!! After loving Diablo & POE for thousands hours of gametime, I think you should cover Dwarven Realms releasing at the end of September, even in its early acess it been a massive blast combining POE-like gearing system combined with Roguelike of Vampire Survivors + Action RPG feeling of BDO in 3rd person being able to animation cancel dashes etc! And the Devs keep pushing out significant updates, changes and fixes daily and the community on discord is really chill and helpful
Yes please for the key binding video, I'm usually playing in console but right now trying to figure out the pc for being able to game while son hogs the TV 😂
Regarding combine/move/interact option: It looks like you can hold the position stationary - eg, ranged - whilst shooting basic skill by triggering the "hold position" choice in that list whilst having the combine active
In some builds I'll keep the basic on the left mouse and use g to hold in place. In past games I would just use space bar to hold but I like the dodge there.
I love your videos! Thank you for all your efforts. Let's grow this channel! Please do a controller/console overview/tutorial, specifically the targeting system. The D4 targeting system is quite powerful but needs to be explained in more detail. Could you do a deep dive on that?
Not gonna use all of these ( I prefer the centered HUD for instance ) but definitely some good tips. The cursor size change will help a lot, losing track of it is a big problem for me at times
@@OwnModeGaming basic skill slot - A core skill - right click skill slot 1 - Q skill slot 2 - W skill slot 3 - 3 skill slot 4 - R move - left click interact - F move and interact - G evade - space use potion - 2 :) I hope some people find that useful.
the first thing I do with any new game installed is to go to options and set the graphics to 640x480 and lowest texture. I do maximize all volume settings ingame. The graphics may suck bcos of this but it does speedup my game.
thanks usefull video , maybe put some timers so we can quickly check each settings faster each time we come back for a new install or revisit settings

I just subscribed/followed your channel. So interesting your take on the gameplay rather than just the builds, or repetitive content we've being seen, plus your didactics are spot on. Thanks
Thanks, man! I work a lot on covering what is being missed that players can benefit from and how I teach it. I really appreciate your comment. Warning, I do have plans on build guides next season but I'm working out how to cover it uniquely.
Unless I did this before and forgot which is very possible, when I went on the PC to do this, half of these were turned or switched off and the HUD was left corner by default. This could be because I played on console 1st which maybe had most of these off by default. The ADvanced tool tips being off by default is just stupid IMO. Really helpful when trying to choose between gear especially in the endgame when you are trying to maximize your gains. Thanks for the help.
That is weird, I forced everything to default before we did that video. I totally agree on the advance tip thing, it makes no sense not to have that on. Of course and thank you!
I been playing with awsd to move, I dont mind to bind a few keys as I used to play wow with tons of macros hha, I didn't enjoy moving clicking in diablo2, I remember when I played Lineage 2 then I quit few weeks later just for that aspect. I'll follow your tips, thanks 😊
Thanks for the great tips! I didn't realize how many of those I missed! The comparison/information tips for items at the end were especially nice! How did I miss those!? 🙃 I really have to go through my "options" more often. *edit - note to self: next time less exclamation points! 🤣
@@OwnModeGaming Exactly. I use a logitech mx master. It really changes the gaming experience. Moreover while channeling spells, you can cast protection without interurptions. It' really better than the keyboard. All I did was to setup the mouse driver to assign keys '1', '2', '3' and '4' to specific buttons. You could even assign four skills to slots 1-4 , allowing your character to fight with 6 different skills.
Thank you for the video.The Advanced Tooltip Compare doesnt work for me even when turned on. Tried multiple times, playing on PC, but doesnt show the comparison 🙁
@@mrblitzer8705 Thank you! There was no hotkey assigned for mine, I've set it as the shift key & is working perfectly lol 🥰Now to work on getting the sword I want 😊Thanks for the video and all the tips, much appreciated!
Awesome Video! I play on a older PC with 1050ti. so its nice to see something that can help with the clutter. any other tips for low end PCs? to keep looking decent but smooth
There are some great videos that actually tested the frame rate vs how taxing it was on the pc. Here are two I would check out. ruclips.net/video/jKEI9I7-FEw/видео.htmlsi=HjScbGkUs81id1sV ruclips.net/video/EooNxs6VqkU/видео.htmlsi=W8QswL-TyJM0rD_8
Thank you very much for these tips. Yes, they may have been around for awhile, but this vid arrived at just the right time for me. Simply adjusting cursor size/color and moving HUD made the game so much more enjoyable. Note: I am a filthy casual and wander in and out of D4.
Love the videos did the key binding set up works great. So I have a problem with my chat I have checked the settings on both discord and windows and I have the correct headphones assigned but for some reason I’ll be talking and then out of nowhere my friends can not hear me at all so I constantly have to go out of the chat room then back in.
Thank you so much. I can't help you on the audio that problem usually comes from the audio setup on the computer. You might check if you have an audio software that takes over or a mute button on your mic.
Its all subjective, but your tip on hud configuration . . . If you move it to the corner it is now, typically, not as easy to see which skills need to be reset or which cooldowns have lifted, etc.
I thought id hate having left click be the basic skill, but somehow Im not bothered by it in D4. In PoE Id shoot myself if I couldnt set left click to move only. I however dont like pressing too many buttons. I seldomly use the T button on PoE, so D4's 4 keyboard buttons are perfect for me. I also already had the advanced tooltips on, but thanks for the other settings! They work great. Esp moving the HUD
everythign make sense but the last one theres an even easier way to fix it, shift holds position and set a key for force to move option too so u have both if in a pinch.
🥳💥*Update*💥 Make sure you catch our New Settings Video with EVEN MORE Settings that you should TURN OFF 👉ruclips.net/video/wiZ3xuSEgzk/видео.html 👈

Yes, this was default in Diablo 3 as well.
Never realized that, actual behavior that I had from D3 as well
This is required with certain skill combinations. Can interrupt your skill otherwise
Exactly. And click past the mobs when you want to move. This is as difficult as solving 2+2.

I never knew until I watched your video, which are very useful and make my gameplay more enjoyable. Thank you so much.
Awesome, I'm glad it helped.
The larger cursor is a must have for me. The cursor doesn't scale with the resolution so on a 4k screen the cursor is just 1/4 the size than on 1080p.

Lol, awesome!
Man this video helped me in a huge way on several points. Sub'd and liked. Thank You.
You are welcome, my friend! Thank you for the sub and like.
Great tips, I would add one that I only found after a while is sharpen image, for some reason mine was to zero, 30 is my best setting, I remember being frustrated at how crappy my game looked even with a decent gpu. Sharpen Image made it glorious
Thank you and that is a solid tip!
Very helpful video!!!
Thank you so much, I appreciate it!
Take this as a contribution to the vid. Some of these are much simpler to change. Some weren't exactly correct.
First what I wouldn't agree on.
Hud/left. You move the health bar all the way to the edge and it's right next to the resource one.
Seeing that info easier is more important for me on HC, especially with 27" monitor and not sitting way back. Not worth it to maybe see something that's still far enough away and it is only when it's from that angle it does anything so left/right/up doesn't get any pro of using it, also left side gets blocked somewhat instead of the bottom so with that I think you can get why I'm not on the same page. It's worse if you have a resource closer in color to health it's easy to mistake one or the other. For SC then I can see the it being used, esthetic only tho.
Windowed vs Full. With a dual monitor setup having the slightly faster time getting the game back in focus is worth it to use Windowed and it makes it smoother going back and forth between game/browser. You can just lock cursor and it's like Full-screen mode.
Also full can often get hidden if you switch to browser and that's not very good for HC. Can't recall if D4 does that atm tho.
If you have a slow PC Full will help with performance a little bit.
Then what can be done in a more simple way.
Don't need to remove combined buttons. Just bind something like mouse button 5 for force move, no need to change anything from the regular bindings you'd use unless you use mb5 for something already then just choose another one.
For the rest they are okay and some are basic stuff people miss so it's good to remind about them. 👍
Hope you don't mind some constructive critic. Much is personal preference, just not all. ❤
awsome, honestly, i'm thankful that you've pointed these out, and I will go ahead and shut them off, what drives me nuts, is trying to hit Q , to heal potion, and hitting tab instead, especially when I NEED the heal.
You are so welcome
I won't do some of these because i have most of my skills on mouse buttons because i like to sit back while i play games and not have my left hand hovering over my keyboard. It makes for better posture for me and reduces the chance of getting shoulder pain.
Awesome, do your thing, my friend! I love it.
This game uniquely causes a ton of eye strain. Gonna try these setting changes, really appreciate it and would love more tips!
Awesome to hear, thank you! Let me know how it goes.
Enjoying this, would like more, particularly around key bindings
thank you I really appreciate the moving the Hud tip I subscribed good work
Thank you. How are you enjoying season 5?
Thank you. I’ve been playing for a while and didn’t know about many of these.
I'm so glad!
Hiya!! After loving Diablo & POE for thousands hours of gametime, I think you should cover Dwarven Realms releasing at the end of September, even in its early acess it been a massive blast combining POE-like gearing system combined with Roguelike of Vampire Survivors + Action RPG feeling of BDO in 3rd person being able to animation cancel dashes etc! And the Devs keep pushing out significant updates, changes and fixes daily and the community on discord is really chill and helpful
Sounds fun!
Ty for the tips keep the content rolling!
You are so welcome!
thank you. these were very helpful
So glad to hear it. Ty!
Yep I'm Interested in your custom keybindings for DiabloIV.
Awesome, that video is right here: ruclips.net/video/rtZaMC0YtCw/видео.htmlsi=ZyJvZAwXxKLWvUjS
Yes please for the key binding video, I'm usually playing in console but right now trying to figure out the pc for being able to game while son hogs the TV 😂
Awesome, it is in the works. We have a couple videos before it and it will be right after those.
I knew most of these already, but I appreciate you putting in the work. I'm looking forward to more tips. Keep it up!
Thanks, man! 👍
Thanks. That was really great info that you shared with everyone interested. I subscribed to you for future info. Appreciate it
Thank you and welcome!
Great video man played the entirety of season 4 without this. Idk why I never went thru the settings
Thank you so much!
Great video and explanation 👍
Thank you! 👍
Regarding combine/move/interact option: It looks like you can hold the position stationary - eg, ranged - whilst shooting basic skill by triggering the "hold position" choice in that list whilst having the combine active
In some builds I'll keep the basic on the left mouse and use g to hold in place. In past games I would just use space bar to hold but I like the dodge there.
I love your videos! Thank you for all your efforts. Let's grow this channel! Please do a controller/console overview/tutorial, specifically the targeting system. The D4 targeting system is quite powerful but needs to be explained in more detail. Could you do a deep dive on that?
Thank you so much. In the longer one I definitely wanted to add controller, key binding and even console settings.
Not gonna use all of these ( I prefer the centered HUD for instance ) but definitely some good tips. The cursor size change will help a lot, losing track of it is a big problem for me at times
Thank you, I'm glad you got value out of it!!!
I use a completely custom key bind setup that makes it more like playing league of legends / path of exile. WAY better imo.
What's your setup?
@@OwnModeGaming
basic skill slot - A
core skill - right click
skill slot 1 - Q
skill slot 2 - W
skill slot 3 - 3
skill slot 4 - R
move - left click
interact - F
move and interact - G
evade - space
use potion - 2
:) I hope some people find that useful.
@@hellcat5music cool, thank you for doing that. I really appreciate it!
the first thing I do with any new game installed is to go to options and set the graphics to 640x480 and lowest texture. I do maximize all volume settings ingame. The graphics may suck bcos of this but it does speedup my game.
That should speed it up.
As a bonus, this gives you back some of the classic Diablo vibe. 😉
thanks usefull video , maybe put some timers so we can quickly check each settings faster each time we come back for a new install or revisit settings
I just subscribed/followed your channel. So interesting your take on the gameplay rather than just the builds, or repetitive content we've being seen, plus your didactics are spot on. Thanks
Thanks, man! I work a lot on covering what is being missed that players can benefit from and how I teach it. I really appreciate your comment. Warning, I do have plans on build guides next season but I'm working out how to cover it uniquely.
Thanks so much for this video! I absolutely love the changes I have made thanks to you!
Awesome! You are so welcome!
I appreciate these tips & definitely would like to see & hear more. TYSM I left you a like & subscribed! 🥰
I'm glad you liked them. Thank you for the like and sub!
Great video sir, I learned alot. Definitely improves player experience.
Thank you, man!
Thanks for the tips helps a lot especially with the tool tips
Happy to help, my friend!
Unless I did this before and forgot which is very possible, when I went on the PC to do this, half of these were turned or switched off and the HUD was left corner by default. This could be because I played on console 1st which maybe had most of these off by default. The ADvanced tool tips being off by default is just stupid IMO. Really helpful when trying to choose between gear especially in the endgame when you are trying to maximize your gains. Thanks for the help.
That is weird, I forced everything to default before we did that video.
I totally agree on the advance tip thing, it makes no sense not to have that on.
Of course and thank you!
You can click lock cursor so it will not leave your screen. If you need to go to your other screen you you can push ALT+Tab
That is true. I do like the free float so I can do things on my computer without leaving my gaming position.
I been playing with awsd to move, I dont mind to bind a few keys as I used to play wow with tons of macros hha, I didn't enjoy moving clicking in diablo2, I remember when I played Lineage 2 then I quit few weeks later just for that aspect. I'll follow your tips, thanks 😊
Awesome, I played a lot of wow and I loved my macros. I put a lot of time into them ☺️
Thanks for the info. Helpful.
You are so welcome!
Thanks for the great tips! I didn't realize how many of those I missed! The comparison/information tips for items at the end were especially nice! How did I miss those!? 🙃
I really have to go through my "options" more often.
*edit - note to self: next time less exclamation points! 🤣
Thanks, this was awesome! And I love the 'note to self'. I get crazy with the exclamations, too‼️
Thanks for the tips, they are really great. However, I use a gaming mouse for my 4 secondary skills. It make fighting much easier, and more fun too. 🙂
Awesome, like a MMO mouse?
@@OwnModeGaming Exactly. I use a logitech mx master. It really changes the gaming experience. Moreover while channeling spells, you can cast protection without interurptions. It' really better than the keyboard. All I did was to setup the mouse driver to assign keys '1', '2', '3' and '4' to specific buttons.
You could even assign four skills to slots 1-4 , allowing your character to fight with 6 different skills.
Thank you for the video.The Advanced Tooltip Compare doesnt work for me even when turned on. Tried multiple times, playing on PC, but doesnt show the comparison 🙁
There is a button that toggles on/off the compare, for me it's the shift key and I think that is the default key.
Also try the ALT key?
@@mrblitzer8705 Thank you! There was no hotkey assigned for mine, I've set it as the shift key & is working perfectly lol 🥰Now to work on getting the sword I want 😊Thanks for the video and all the tips, much appreciated!
This was really helpful, thank you.
I'm so glad!
Excellent tips!!
THANK YOU!!
Thank you so much!!!👍
Awesome Video! I play on a older PC with 1050ti. so its nice to see something that can help with the clutter. any other tips for low end PCs? to keep looking decent but smooth
There are some great videos that actually tested the frame rate vs how taxing it was on the pc. Here are two I would check out.

ruclips.net/video/EooNxs6VqkU/видео.htmlsi=W8QswL-TyJM0rD_8
very useful! thanks a lot!!!
Awesome!
Really enjoy your tips. Any extras greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work!
Awesome, thank you!
@@OwnModeGaming Yeah hit me up to on the extra tips
The hud icons and hotbar are a nightmare when you're trying to get somewhere on a mount... that's for sure.
tried putting the hud to the left and i like it a lot more.
Awesome!
Thank you very much for these tips. Yes, they may have been around for awhile, but this vid arrived at just the right time for me. Simply adjusting cursor size/color and moving HUD made the game so much more enjoyable. Note: I am a filthy casual and wander in and out of D4.
You are welcome. I'm so glad you got them when you needed them, that is cool. Sometimes it's the little things. "Filthy casual", I love it!
Very helpful. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Set the mouse cursor color to yellow, the. You can leave it small so you can see more under the mouse, yet it's super easy to spot.
Nice, I like it.
Thank you. As soon as that screen started shaking, I was thought I was going to throw up.
You are so welcome! I'm glad the settings helped.
Love the videos did the key binding set up works great. So I have a problem with my chat I have checked the settings on both discord and windows and I have the correct headphones assigned but for some reason I’ll be talking and then out of nowhere my friends can not hear me at all so I constantly have to go out of the chat room then back in.
Thank you so much. I can't help you on the audio that problem usually comes from the audio setup on the computer. You might check if you have an audio software that takes over or a mute button on your mic.
@@OwnModeGaming my headphones are Corsair so might have to check in the ique settings for the headphones
Its all subjective, but your tip on hud configuration . . . If you move it to the corner it is now, typically, not as easy to see which skills need to be reset or which cooldowns have lifted, etc.
Great video and tips, thank you.
Thank you and you are so welcome!
I thought id hate having left click be the basic skill, but somehow Im not bothered by it in D4. In PoE Id shoot myself if I couldnt set left click to move only.
I however dont like pressing too many buttons. I seldomly use the T button on PoE, so D4's 4 keyboard buttons are perfect for me.
I also already had the advanced tooltips on, but thanks for the other settings! They work great. Esp moving the HUD
Awesome 😎 I'm glad it helped!
everythign make sense but the last one theres an even easier way to fix it, shift holds position and set a key for force to move option too so u have both if in a pinch.
Yeah, that's a good setup.
