Regardless, of whether you’re playing with a mouse and keyboard or controller, it is an easy fix. Here is how to easily change the keybinds (aka. key mapping) to whatever layout suits you best.
How to Change Keybinds in Last Epoch
First, open the Settings menu. It can be accessed via the character selection screen at login, the main menu, and the menu button. Similar to when optimizing the graphics in the game.
From there, make sure you are in the Gameplay tab at the top of the window then click on Change input keys.
The window where you can change the keys that your abilities are bound to will open. Many aspects other than ability keys can be changed here. This includes buttons for movement, portals, potions, and more.
To change a keybind, left-click on or select the key you would like to change and click Replace on the window that opens. This process is identical to updating controller settings.
You will be prompted to press a key to assign it to the ability or action you selected. The key you press will be displayed at the bottom of the window.
When you are finished, simply click Done at the top left. If you mess with too many things, get confused, or want the original settings back for someone else playing on your device, just click Restore Defaults.
