No matter what class, race or role you play, your keybindings WoW must include your main cooldowns. So, where is it best to fit your main cooldowns?

We’ll get to that, but first, I want to clarify one thing, and that’s the World of Warcraft meaning of “cooldown”. In this game, players call “cooldowns” their abilities that considerably improve their damage, healing or defense, and that have a re-use timer higher than 30 seconds. These abilities are quite important and you have to use easily accessible keybindings WoW for them, otherwise you won’t be effective.

Therefore, here are a few ideas to fit your cooldowns for tanks, healers and DPS classes.

1. Tanks. Every tank has at least one or two defensive cooldowns (example: Icebound Fortitude for death knights). These are the most important abilities to use in case you’re taking to much damage. My key bindings WoW for these are usually on F1-F4.

2. Healers. Similar to tanks, healers have cooldowns that boost their healing. Since you can’t be a tank and a healer at the same time, I use the same key bindings WoW for the healing CDs – F1 – F4.

3. Damage dealers. Now, since you also have DPS cooldowns as a healer and as a tank for most classes, I like to keep my DPS cooldowns to F5-F8.  This way, I never hit the wrong button.

Another excellent alternative for loading up and using optimized keybindings WoW relies on an addon. This addon is quite a nice tool to have specially if you find the creation of macros and keybinds boring. Also, it will provide you with the keybindings WoW that only the elite WoW players use.
