Any tips for dealing with the excessive button smashing as a Knight?

Question

My knight just hit 298 and in the last days, every single time i finish the hunt, the tip of my fingers are burning..

My knight skills are 98, and doesn't deal that much damage, I use 1.245 mana to kill a box of werehyenas,  i have to hold the mana potion bottom for 14 - 16 seconds until my mana is fully recovered, since the mana potion i'm locked with can only recover around 70 mana per second, combined that with every hotkey i need to attack, move and loot and heal myself, the amount of buttons you have to type is just ridiculous and doesn't seem very healthy.

Comparing it to WoW, you have significantly less bottom imputs and you have even the option to use macros, which seems to be a tabu on Tibia for some reason.

My question is, does this get better in the future? My plan was just to stop leveling entirely when i hit 300 and just survive by killing bosses, is this a viable strategy?

hello. You added the knight tag. You want to expand it to include any vocation or want solution only for the button smashing as a knight?

I believe that this thread wants to focus more on ideas on how to reduce button smashing routine/alternatives to live on Tibia with less sessions like that (as a knight?) instead of dealing with pain from gaming sessions on Tibia. I don't think that this flag should be applied here. But thanks anyway @Shawtay :)

not a problem! i said possible because i'm not sure myself just want to make sure. I think the question should change to exactly what you suggested to avoid confusion (but of course the question asker can clarify if he wants it for all vocations or just specifically for a knight as he did say he was one)

I believe this is a Knight only issue, all the other classes can cover the cost of most their spells with 1 ultimate spirit / ultimate mana potion, the Knight needs to use 5 mana potions to cover the cost of Exori Gran, 4 for Utito Tempo, 3 for exori min, not to mention the healing, mages recover almost 100% with only 1 spell, paladins will recover with only 2 - 3 depending on ML, the knight will probably need to use dozens  Exura Icos to recover full hp at around lvl 300.

Is there any other way to deal with this huge mana problem other than "get stronger so you can mana / health leech more"?

Also, at what level can i just stop leveling and just survive (pay premium) with bosses profits? I want to do all bosses available for around 300~

They are few things which crosses my mind at the moment:

- Your Imbuements are either not enough or you have equipment which does not let you put enough of imbues to cope with the hunt;

- Do you have any charms discovered and set on those monsters ? You might be in need of that also ( an example, dodge- it will decrease need of healing)

- Perhaps you need to set some preys? Defence or Offence - for decreasing of healing and killing monsters quicker. 

- The way of set up of your hotkeys-

Do you have set up hotkeys only on keyboard? Do you have some of them on the mouse? If the answer is already yes- I use keyboard and mouse for my hotkeys and it is not enough, perhaps 12 button Mouse can be solution for you.

- Hotkeys Set Up- you might go through few videos or advices to find best set of hotkey's for yourself: TibiaQA (no hotkeys on mouse); Youtube.com- Dcaari (Keyboard & Mouse); Another one. They are several videos with different ideas- find what is best for you

- Your Computer Equipment might not be right or can be outdated/overused and need little boost or refreshing- like change of key dampers

- Tricks and Tips- Please check this Video  by Vian- Tip #1 is surely for your attention. It suggest to use Mouse Hotkey for refill mana if you have it set otherwise. Few more useful tips.  

- Improve your spell rotation - Video here by Itexo

- In case you have sensitive fingers xD maybe you need  Finger Cones?

Great answer! Also, depending on where you hunt, team hunting would relieve you as a Druid can do the majority of the healing.

Thanks for the tips!

But yeah, my imbuements are always the best available, 2x powerful life leech and 2x powerful void, the best gear for my level with the only exception being using ornate chestplate instead of lion plate, i even have fabulous legs, charms are also on point, dodge on werehyena and freeze on werehyena shaman.

But the other tips are very nice, especially the finger cones. Thanks !
