Six of these, and combat halves
The
keybindings
You can play the whole game with a mouse. You will play it considerably faster if you learn six of these — and the six are called out below before the full list starts.

The six#
Everything below this is reference. These are the ones that change how a session feels.
T
Target the token under the cursor. The single most useful key in the list — most attacks and saves want a target before they want anything else.
C
Open your character sheet. P does the same for the party sheet.
1–9
Fire a hotbar slot. Between this and T you can run most of a fight without touching the mouse.
R
Toggle the ruler, for checking a distance before you commit to the move.
Q and E
Descend and ascend 5 ft. Vertical movement is invisible until you need it and then it is the whole fight.
Ctrl + Space
Open the search menu — finds actors, items, journals, anything. Faster than any sidebar tab.
