>ctrl click to grab in combat
>its also the block movement button
>person your chasing keeps running and your stuck in place until you let go

Why are these two buttons binded together. Weird. I say switch it with shift click (who examines while running) and ctrl click (i do be grabbing in combat)

Why even have block movement bound at all. The only purpose is RP direction facing and if you want to do that just click something in the direction you would like to face.

I literally didn't even know what the block movement hotkey was and discovered I already rebound it away from control, instinctively, like the dive reflex.
Have you guys really been playing this game for hundreds of hours with it bound to control?
Lol.
