This basic layout is ideal for most play styles and is covered in this guide.
Item & Ability Combos - When placing items in slots during the game, consider
what abilities you may use in connection with the item. For example, if you are
playing Tiny and purchase a Blink Dagger, you may want to place the Blink
Dagger in Item Slot 1. When you activate your Blink Dagger (on the fi rst joint ofthe Pointer Finger) you can quickly slide your thumb up to activate Avalance (on
the fingertip of the Pointer Finger). If you want to combo Blink then Toss
instead, just move the Blink Dagger over to Item Slot 2.
Extra Unit Selection – If you are playing a hero with controllable units (Lone
Druid, Chen, etc.) set up the fingertip to thumb fat TouchPoints to select or cycle
units. This is an easy to remember setup since pointer fingertip to thumb fat is
already hero select. You can use TAB to cycle through units, or assign unit
groupings by programming unit group numbers to the fingertips.
( Example: Lone Druid – Setup the middle finger tip to be 2, then select the bear
and press CTRL+2 on the keyboard to assign the bear to Unit Group 2. Then
select Lone Druid and his bear, and assign them to Unit Group 3, and setup the
ring fingertip to be 3. Now Pointer Fingertip will select Lone Druid, Middle
Fingertip will select the bear, and Ring Fingertip will select both Lone Druid and
the bear.)
More Than 4 Abilities - For heroes with more than 4 activatible abilities (such as
Keeper of the Light) you can place extra abilities on TouchPoints below the
finger tips, or on the side of the fingers activated by the Thumb Fat (see Thumb
Fat section above). If you place extra abilities on the first joint of the fingers you
may need to reduce or rearrange TouchPoints that trigger items. Experiment tosee what works best for you.
This guide provides a basic Peregrine keymap layout for DotA 2 but is only a
starting point. As you gain in-game experience with the Peregrine Glove you
may want to modify the hotkeys of various TouchPoints to suit your play style.
Learn what feels most comfortable for you and make changes accordingly. Likeany new device, the Peregrine will take some practice to master. It will take
some adjustment to get used to typing with the Peregrine on, but after several
games it should be fine.
Thank you for reading this guide, we hope you have a great time with your
Peregrine Glove. Please send comments, ideas and Peregrine stories to:
