logitech g510 and what can I do with it?
You can program macros to those keys. So for example. You usually like to use skill b after skill a. You can program one of the g keys to press button 1, pause, then press button 2.
Press the MR button at the top left to start recording your macro, then press the keys you want to bind. Finish by pressing the MR button again.
Im not sure how to add pauses though.
You can do it using the software provided with the keyboard.
Is it allowed? Programming macros on your keyboard? Gaming publishers tend to ban people for that, I’m not sure with GW2, was there an official statement yet about macros set in gaming keyboards?

Usually it’s fine, so long as you don’t use the Delay features of those devices.
For example, Binding a G-Key to Ctrl+Alt+1 would be fine, but having a G-Key press 1, wait two seconds, press 2, wait another two seconds and press 1 again would not be OK.

Ah this would be definitely something I will look more into! And thanks for the replies!

This is not true. Unless Arenanet has changed their stance.
In the past Arenanet reps have said they will not comment on which macros are OK and which are not. They said that players should feel free to use their keyboards as they see fit however that any method that allows the game to be played without a user having to control the character could be construed as botting and could result in a ban.
Which macros rise to the level of botting and which don’t they have never said specifically.
But wouldn,t it be pretty useless to macro something if you dont include delay?To program skill attack you need to measure the delay for it to execute before pressing the next button, otherwise the macro wont work. IF you can’t do that , then what’s the point.
