Turning off autorun in Final Fantasy XIV is a simple process, whether you're navigating Eorzea with a keyboard and mouse or a gamepad.
How to Toggle Autorun On and Off
You can quickly enable or disable autorun using specific keys or buttons, depending on your preferred input method.
For Keyboard and Mouse Users
If you're playing with a keyboard and mouse, you have two primary options to toggle autorun:
- Press the "R" key: This key acts as a toggle, turning autorun on if it's off, and off if it's on.
- Press the mouse wheel: Similar to the "R" key, clicking your mouse wheel will also toggle the autorun feature.
For Gamepad and Controller Users
For those using a gamepad or controller, the method involves a specific button press while moving your character:
- While moving the left stick (to move your character), press:
- The LB button on Xbox Series X|S controllers.
- The L1 button on PlayStation 5™ or PlayStation 4™ controllers.
This action will activate or deactivate autorun as needed, allowing you to control your character's movement with ease.
Customizing Your Autorun Keybind
Should you prefer a different key or button for autorun, Final Fantasy XIV offers the flexibility to customize your keybinds:
- Open the System menu.
- Navigate to Keybind.
- Look for the "Turn On/Off Auto-run" option.
- From there, you can reassign the action to a key or button that feels more comfortable and intuitive for your playstyle.
