Making proper use of all your best abilities in Avowed is the easiest of the tips and tricks you can take into the game. When you begin, you will have your healing and mana potions set on your quick select bar, followed by the first skill you unlock and first companion ability. That's great in the early game, but it isn't long before you unlock new skills that you want on that slot more than what is put there for you. You can always access all your abilities through the tactical menu, but that is a bit cumbersome. Instead, here's how you can remap your quick skills to whatever you want.
How to rebind skills in Avowed
You have 4 quick select slots on controller and 6 on PC in Avowed that can be set with consumables, skills, and companion abilities. Changing them out is easy and only takes a few seconds, so feel free to change them as often as you want.
Step 1: Open the tactical menu and highlight the skill you want to put on your quick select bar.
Step 2: With that skill highlighted, press the corresponding direction on the D-pad you want to bind it to, or any of the 1-6 keys on your keyboard to bind it to.
Step 3: Exit the tactical menu and your new skill will replace whatever was in that slot previously.
Besides skills, you can bind potions, consumables, and companion abilities to any of these slots. We suggest keeping health potions on there at all times, but there's no restrictions on what you can put there.
