When Warlords of Draenor launched there was a significant reduction in the ability bloat that has been building up over the expansions. Personally, I find the default binding setup of 36 combinations (not including jump, targeting, map, menu, bags etc) is enough for me.

Getting more buttons on a controller is not necessarily the solution you want. 36 combinations equals 3 full action bars, but there are 6 bars total. 4 MultiActionBars (3 through 6) and two swappable bars (1 and 2).
If you want to expand the amount of buttons you have, you can use the binding palette to do either:
- Assign a button combination to "Next action bar", which will swap out your bar, giving you a total of 48 buttons.
- Assign specific action pages, giving you up to 60 buttons.

Here's a picture of the binding palette with 48 buttons assigned ("Next action bar" included in this calculation)


Edit: Since this isn't the most intuitive panel, I'll explain what's going on.
The vertical button set is your ability buttons and the horizontal set is the modifiers.
The left-most set of buttons are the unmodified buttons. The next column is modified by L1, then by L2 and then by L1 and L2 together. Pressing a combination will make it light up in blue on the palette.

I guess it depends on the player, but I really don't find the need of having a gazillion macros, flasks and mounts on my bars which is why this solution works for me. 36 button combinations should be enough for any class and their full set of abilities nowadays.

Whenever mouse look is activated, keyboard turning is disabled. This is simply a restriction put up by blizzard. Are you not comfortable with turning using your right stick?

There is a bug report button on the main page of the addon. Please use it to submit stuff like this. This bug is likely due to a recent update to the binding interface. I'll fix it shortly.

Edit: Regarding the xbox guide button, have a look at this:

Edit 2: This bug is not happening for me. Could you help me reproduce it by walking through the steps you take when rebinding the A button?

I don't like bar swapping either. But it's available for those who are not satisfied with 36 buttons.

It actually works great with tanking. The tab targeting system is very intelligent, and prioritizes targets right in front of you over targets to the side, even if they are closer. I actually leveled a BrM monk from 1-90 with a similar setup before starting developing this addon.

For PvP, it works good as DPS. In arenas, targeting specific opponents might be problematic atm. Now, depending on what controller and software you use, your experience may differ. In PvP you need the ability to turn around and move with agility and while this works good with some controllers (PS4 controller is excellent) some controllers may be less useful for PvP.

When it comes to healing, it's a bit different. Right now, the system is fixed and mouse look is there whether you want it or not. It's not always going to be like that. I'd like to stress this addon is still in very early development and modifying an experience that was intended for mouse and keyboard to this extent is a huge undertaking. I have some ideas for a healing system that involves little to no mouseover, but we'll see how that works out. For now, healing kinda sucks with this setup.

An action page is any action bar. You have a total of 6 action pages. 3-6 are your extra bars (the ones you activate in interface options) and 1-2 are your main action bar, where the second is hidden. You can map the static buttons to perform any action that you normally would with your keyboard, because it inherits the same binding lists as provided in the standard key bindings.

It doesn't. The code is written around using two modifiers, giving you 4 different states. I'd have to redo it all from scratch if I were to support more modifiers. For most players, I think it would just add unnecessary complexity.

Mouseover is an easy way to go, but it's not very comfortable trying to aim at tiny plates with your thumb. We'll see what I can come up with for healers in the near future.

Right now it should work well enough as a dps or tank in both PvE and PvP once you get used to the playstyle. In my demonstration video where I do proving grounds you can see it works pretty well even when you have to deal with multiple targets that need interrupting or CC.

I strongly recommend trying it out on a fresh level 1 character before attempting to remap one of your mains.

I'm going to get a hold of an Xbox 360 controller and put up an Xpadder profile for it soon.

This looks pretty much the same as my setup!

I've added options for the mouse look triggers for those who don't like the default settings.

I need an Xbox controller to investigate this.. In the meantime, you can bind that manually by going here:


Just bind the guide button manually and that screen will stop showing up.
If you want to do a full reset without deleting your WTF folder, just type /cp resetAll

Edit: To me it seems that Xpadder is sending the LB modifier when you press the guide button. Have you checked in Xpadder if LB lights up when you press the guide button?

Edit: What resolution are you using? I noticed a graphical bug on the splash screen.
