Keys Rebinded & Mouselag Fix
By Ari ∞
This is my take on Dark Souls II keybinds without mouselag inducing double click feature.

FYI
  • No double clicks (mouse input lag gets fixed as you disable double clicks)
  • Default camera controls

Please notice that everytime you startup your game, the double click option will get reset even though it says off.

In order to fix this you need to do this:
1. Go to the Key Bindings menu
2. Press the 'Cancel' key

Or go to Key Bindings > Mouse Bindings and:
1. Enable double click
2. Disable double click

I recommend using these keybinds if you find playing with default binds too hard. It probably takes about 30 minutes to get used to playing with these but it is worth it.

Keybinds
Attack (right hand) - Left click
Strong attack (right hand) - Right click

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extra bindings for those who want to use the Next target feature (Camera controls):

Auto-dash - G
Lock guard - Y or T

Alternative weapon switch and menu bindings:

I recomend just using keyboard for left/right hand. I just use mouse to swap weapons, lock on/off, and camera

@Nasa Peepo make sure scroll up is binded for jump only.

@Nasa Peepo I think it doesn't matter if you use auto-run or not. Scroll up jump should work, so I'm not sure why it's not working for you.

The jump bind doesn't seem to work for me. I start running, and scroll up, I don't jump. Am I supposed to use the auto-run?

@Gorsondor Thanks, I added your advise :)

@BreakneckJack You do not have to renable double click just to disable it again. You can go into the keybindings menu and press whatever key you bound to the Cancel option, press it and the game will auto currect itself

1. Enter Key Bindings menu
2. Press Cancel action key
3. ???
4. Profit

You can completely eliminate mouse lag by changing the attacks to num 7 and 8 and changing your mouse clicks to num 7 and 8.
