I would love to rebind an action to two keys = for specific reasons.

There may be various reasons why people want to bind two keyboard keys to do a identical action, if possible, can we please have this feature? It is many other games.

An example:  
I love being able to hold R to cool down my psyker, but, it’s a bad keybind, because, if you’re holding that, it’s difficult and upsets my flow to dodge with the D (step right key), without releasing R. So as my psyker, i spend most of my time dodging left and backwards because i spend so much time cooling with the R key.

But if I rebind reload from R to something I can hold with my little finger (a button I don’t use like control) and still dodge, then, I’ll be playing my veteran or ogryn or zealot, and be pressing R in the heat of combat to reload. So it’s not acceptable to have only one key for this action and I would ideally like to be able to bind reload to both R and left control, etc.

Fwiw, there’s a mod for this. But yes, double-binds, both ways, should be a default.

And better to see it implemented in the game.  
That’s a legit demand.

Or someone will say that using mods is cheating…

that’s why i have reload / quelling bound to left ctrl, i can quell with my left pinky while dodging all day. but sure, getting used to a new setup takes time, and while i recommend the multibind mod, it should be standard to have this function by default this day.

I’m genuinely shocked you can’t bind at least to one other key for every function.

-1 to the mod. i’m not getting a dang mod. any mod. 😛 i’m not going and fiddle-faddling every time there is a patch and getting silly mods. i have no time for that.

and also another -1 to fat shark because i installed vermintide 2 again the other day and there’s so many quality of life features in that game that are missing in darktide = dual keybind support, dodging options, ability to bring our other characters as AI (and preference which class comes first) as bots, etc.
