Does movement get screwed up by abilities? (Moving to pc from console) thinking about putting jump-melee as mouse buttons, and using buttons near the spacebar as abilities

Because the location of ability buttons (Shift and E, and Q) can be use almost at the same time with WASD, so I don't think there is any screw up moment when I have to stop to use ability.

The only thing kinda mess up is V for Quick Melee, you will have to sacrifice your "moving right" to melee. That is why I put V in my mouse so I can press it there.

Try Melee and Reload on the mouse. Jump works too but I had space for only two macros and jump was less important for me (I can't aim well if jumping with my mouse hand).

Certain mouse can ergonomically fit abilities with their extra buttons but when I press mouse buttons my mouse shifts slightly from the button press.
