While adjusting the actuation point gives you faster response times, you would still have to fully release the key to reset the keystroke. Rapid Trigger bypasses this rule and enables you to rapidly retrigger the key, for as little as 0.1mm in both releasing and re-pushing on the same key. You could think of it as firing off a rifle then reloading another round into the chamber faster than you imagined possible.
1. To start the customization, select your ROG Falchion Ace HFX in the device category in Armoury Crate.
2. Select the Analog Trigger tab.
3. Under Rapid Trigger (RT), use the RT slider to apply how far a key must travel upwards to reset the key, and downwards to re-actuate the key. I personally find that an RT distance of 0.2mm is sufficiently responsive without causing accidental retriggers. Trial and test over time to find your optimal balance between the best response times and least accidental retriggers.
By default, the RT slider decides the key release and retrigger (re-pressing) sensitivity. Turn on Independent press and release sensitivity settings to customize their sensitivity separately.
4. Click on Edit to choose keys to be affected by the RT slider.
Selected keys affected by RT are highlighted, with WASD on by default. Click on additional keys to apply RT to. I personally like to add Ctrl and Spacebar for RT, as I want these movement keys (for crouch and jump) to also feel rapidly responsive and fluid. Click on Apply to save your settings.
*Continuous Rapid Trigger: Rapid Trigger is only active past the actuation point by default. Continuous Rapid Trigger ensures that the entire keystroke benefits from the rapid trigger feature until the key is fully released.
5. The Rapid Trigger switch found on the top right of the keyboard can toggle Rapid Trigger on and off quickly, as indicated by the panel below it. Quickly turn it off during normal typing to avoid accidental triggers.
