So I am leveling up a Paladin and, as usual, starting to fight with myself about where to put which ability (for easy-access, etc.)

So, the question I wan't to pose to everyone is: What is your spec, and what do you bind to your main keys (or your main abilites to)?

I'm Prot. I have my healing spells to the left, my "OH !@#$" buttons in the middle, and my tanking abilities on the right (this is action bar 1). For my "top left" action bar I have my Blessings then my Seals. Right action bar I have things like Exorcism, Holy Wrath, Perception that I use, but not very frequently. Then on my side action bars I have my Greater Blessings, food, bandages, pots, mini pet, etc..

I use ESDF instead of WASD, which allows me to use A (pinky finger) for mount (shift-A for flying mount). It also feels more natural, as my hand can assume its normal typing position if I need to start moving quickly.

Middle mouse = autorun

Melee:
1 = attack
2 = judgement
3 = SoR or SoV (I swap them depending on what I'm doing)
4 = SoJ
5 = SoL
6 = SoW
7 = SoV or SoR (see key 3)

Healing: (I just put my hand with pinky on 8 when healing)
8 = BoP
9 = Div Illum (Avenger Shield if prot)
0 = Holy Shock (Holy Shield if prot)
- = FoL macro (shift is downgraded version)
= = HL macro (shift is downgraded version
delete = cleanse

Numpad has all my lesser blessings, except:
NP5 = Divine Shield
NP3 = Divine Favor
NP+ = Healing trinket (or taunt macro if prot)
NP- = PvP Trinket (or Avenging Wrath for farming/fighting demons for Leo, or Tainted Core macro for Vashj)
NP Enter = HoJ
NP0 = Hammer of Wrath
I like having these lesser used, but important for quick access, ability there, so I can use them with either hand, depending on what else I'm doing.

Shift-1 = Consecrate
Shift-2 = Pally Fear
Shift-4 = Exorcism

Page Up = LoH
Page Down = DI

I won't list the keys I bind as Holy spec as its getting repetitive and I bind pretty much the same as everyone else. But I'll point out that I also have Shift/mousewheel-up and Shift/mousewheel-down bound to actions.

I tried binding alt-[pick a key] and ctrl-[pick a key] but stopped using them because it just got too difficult to remember which was what. I suppose I could overcome that by binding one new action at a time until I get it hard-wired into my brain.

I know that this isnt the place, but after reading "A (pinky finger) for mount (shift-A for flying mount)." i thought, there has to be a way to macro both mounts to 1 key, if you cant summon a flying it would summon a riding, any ideas?.

I'm Holy. I kinda have a weird setup but it's too ingrained to change now.

~ (the button to the left of 1.) Judgement
1. Attack
2. SoR
3. SotC
4. SoJ
5. SoL
6. SoW

Shift ~ Flash of Light (max)
Shift 1. Holy Light (max)
Shift 2. HL (down rank)
Shift 3. HL (down rank)

...etc with healing abilities. I usually heal/cleanse in parties with Healbot anyway.

Q - Hammer of Justice
Alt Q - Hammer of Wrath
R - Consecration
T - Exorcism
Alt T - Holy Wrath
F - Divine Favor
E - Holy Shock
C - Cleanse
Z - Blessing of Freedom
B - Bubble
Y - Lay on Hands
Backspace - Mount

I have my blessings bound to Control 1,2,3 etc, but I usually just click them off my Autobar. I also click Divine Illumination and a couple other things.

Not the most effective layout, but then I don't PvP so I can get away with it.
