I was wondering if you could do something special with the Xbox One Elite Controller like button mapping individual skills to back paddles and other things you may want to do by a press of a button?

You can do this with the xbox accesories app already! Youd just make whatever skill you want that button.

Lasted time i checked if you have to press a combination of buttons to activate the skill say like Left Trigger and X you won' be able to map it using the Xbox Accessories App. It only allows for the buttons on the controller to be remapped and not individual skills or actions, ect.

Oh you wanna make your own full combos of buttons. Thatd be cool.

What do you mean like make it so a paddle can press X and A at the same time?

Yes, I don't know how the controls will be for console but if you needed to press X and A at the same time for an action like a spell attack or drink a potion. I think it would be cool to just click one button rather than multiple buttons for an action using the back paddles. Now I'm thinking it doesn' t have to be just button mapping for combinations of buttons but mapping for individual skills/actions using the back paddles. The paddles are like extra buttons to me so you could possibly make them hot keys for certain things.

Yeah I wish they would do something like that too, as long as they don't make it so a button can do a combo chain I feel like that would not even be playing the game anymore. 

doubt they'll make it so that you can do combos with 1 mapped button on the elite.  too many would rage disadvantage and there gonna hear that enough as is with all those who cant/wont spend to get the pets weight and invent slot expansions.

not to mention all the outfits haha

True a lot of people would complain about it

Yeah I think that would be taking it to far, unfair and no skill required too. I'm just looking for great controls for an mmo using a controller with extra buttons like mapping hotkeys to back paddles.

Well, I've been playing on PC recently with a controller to better get a hang of how things would feel. If they do it similarly on xbox I could see a huge advantage with mapping shift to a paddle or your Q. Basically anything that requires you to hold multiple buttons or buttons you need to hit that might take away from you taking your thumb off the right thumbstick. So even if they didn't do anything special for the elite controller, just having the extra buttons to map to would be a huge advantage. I rarely use my paddle but I'm sure going to when BDO drops for console.
