I use A, S and D to Strafe Left, Move Forwards and Strafe Right, respectively. My weapon skills are mapped from Q to T, Utility Skills to Z, X and C, Heal and Elite to Mouse Buttons 4 and 5, and finally Profession skill are 1-4.

This setup brings all the skill keys close to my movement keys and I can still circle strafe and launch skills at the same time.

the problem with that is you still have to lift your fingers off from movement buttons when activating skills

But putting your hotkeys comfortably -- for you, as what is comfortable may differ from person to person, so I won’t claim where I have mine is optimal -- around your movement keys is a solid approach. You cannot move backwards and forwards at the same time, nor can you move left and right at the same time. So potentially you have a couple fingers on that hand that should be able to hit your hotkeys without disrupting your movement. Or, at least, disrupting it a minimal amount.
