Useful Keybinds
#3
First off, I would very strongly recommend that you do not bind distribute shields to the space bar. All abilities have a 1 sec global cooldown which means it takes 1 sec to activate and during that second, you can not activate any other abilities. Distrubute shields only has a 2 second cooldown, which means every couple of seconds it's going to go off.


RyanSTO put out a video explaining why this is not a good idea and also why massive keybinds like those in the Hilbert guide are generally not a good idea.

Also spamming abilities using the space bar can throw off the timing of your abilities which will lower your overall DPS. For example on a beam build, you'd want to activate your attack pattern and then immediately activate FAW so that FAW takes advantage of the attack pattern, when you bind a bunch of stuff to the space bar you can't reliably control when they will go off. Timing abilites is very important to improving your overall damage out put.

If you look at this video, and scroll about half way though (around 22:30 seconds into video) Ryan has a very good explanation of timing using a spread sheet. You can't optimize your timing if you bind your abilities to the spacebar.
