Ranger Awakening QoL & Input Changes

In the last patch, Rushing Wind was changed so it no longer can be used on cooldown, but it can be cast with LMB when Breezy Blade is on cooldown. These changes, despite needing to adapt and retrain muscle memory again, were great in my opinion, making the class more intuitive for new players and more comfortable when you get used to it. So why don't make more similar changes? I propose the following:

Flow: Rushing Wind

Change the RMB input to LMB instead and allow the skill to be cast by holding LMB for a quick flow transition from Breezy Blade, or by pressing LMB twice to linger the Super Armor.

LMB has become the primary input after the last patch, while RMB is currently only used to cast the skill after Breezy Blade. I think by consolidating these inputs, it would make the flow much more coherent and intuitive.

Flow: Tempest icon

Change Space input to Q.

This flow can only be cast after Wailing Wind, and spaming skills while on cooldown was heavily nerfed in the past. I think Q is a more natural input choise.

Breezy Blade

Allow Breezy Blade to be cast via Quick Slot while in Pre-awakening, the same way is possible in awakening, allowing also Rushing Wind flows.

Twisting Wind & Riding the Wind  iconicon

Allow these skills to be cast while in Awakening.

Currently, Shift + A/S/D is not used in awakening, it could be a great swap and tool to improve the flow when swapping stances.
