Controls in this game are very console-like with things like multiple functions on one keybindig, but I tried to make them more intuitive than default controls.

Mouse sensitivity/DPI

Mouse sensitivity is so high by default you should lower your DPI. I have it set to 400, and sensitivity in the game to 2.

Movement Controls

Shift for Dash/Backstep/Roll

Camera Controls

Removed keyboard binding for camera reset/lock-on to prevent conflict with another binding.

Switch Equipment

E for Switching right-hand weapon
Q for Switching left-hand weapon

Remove the mouse bindings for these 2.

Attack Controls

Right click for Right hand strong attack
Ctrl for Left hand attack (guard) and remove the mouse binding for it
Mouse button 3 for Left hand strong attack. It’s also your weapon skill key (side button)
Mouse button 4 for Use item (side button)

Menu Controls

Right click for Cancel. Just be careful not so spam it when talking to NPC’s because it’s also your strong attack. Or just use Q which is default.
A & D for tab switching
R is default for showing item info and removing equipment
F is default for 2-handing weapons and switching what info is displayed in menus
Space for opening help menu
