I play an Elementalist using a G13 keypad and a G600 mouse. The other day I was cycling between F1-4 using a button on my mouse. Then I reset my mouse by accident and now I can’t work out how to cycle between the F1-4 keys without actually hitting the F1-4 keys. Is there a key that cycles between them or was I just dreaming? I can’t find the key command anywhere.

You would press a single mouse button and it would go to Water Attunement, press it again and go to Air and again to go to Earth, then back to Fire? You were using a macro that played a sequence.

You had a mouse button for each attunement? You had the buttons assigned to F1-4.

There is no in-game command to go through the attunements in sequence. Doing so would not be a very efficient way to play an elementalist.

It wasn’t a macro. I’ve only had the game for a week now, so I’m not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. The problem I have is I’m running out of buttons to assign on my keypad / mouse. It would be nice to cycle between the attunements during combat like you can swap between weapons with other professions.

If you bind a single key (using a macro) to press F1-4 at the same time, you will cycle to whatever attunement isn’t on cooldown from left to right.

Each attunement has a specific use and a time to use it, so cycling through them and needlessly putting attunements on cooldown would be very inefficient. It’d basically be the same as using your skills in order instead of when you need them. Swapping weapons is automatic since it’s only between two of them so there’s no choice to be made. If it were more, it’d most likely no longer be automatic, unless it was balanced that way.
