You'll find it very natural
You'll find it very natural once you set it up.
your left pinky finger can easily reach any of the modifier keys, your middle three fingers almost never leave WASD so you can always move and strafe. Your right thumb triggers most of your skills.
When facing someone who relies on mouseclicks to fire off skills, you will be able to beat them completely with movement, they'll struggle to even damage you (a lot of hunters, who can get away with this in pve fall into this trap in the moors).

I never thought about using the keys around WASD for skills, I'll have to experiment.

I use Palantir for the
I use Palantir for the moral/power bars, TonicBars for the maps (they have drop down lists when I scroll over a crude revealing the coresponding poor and good maps), and I use Buffbars.
That was actually almost the end of the day, I like to stock up to 120 stun pots, 80 root pots, 50 moral pots, and 40 stealthed hobbit trackers each morning. I'm actually running low on fear/speed/mini brand pots... looks like it's back to the delving XD
I do actually use the number keys above the letters for 1-8, everything else gets clicked except stun/root/moral pots which are bound to the back/forward/middle buttons on my mouse. I'm actually hoping to get a gaming mouse with lots of buttons on it so I don't have to click the skills/pots not already bound to my number keys or mouse. It probably really helps that I have large hands so I am able to reach to 8 without much trouble :P.

I would suggest experimenting
I would suggest experimenting with modifier keys first.
I use numbers 1-4 without modifiers, all for "root you in place" skills where I won't be moving (since using a movement key while hitting those keys is awkward).
Everything else is z,x,c,v then alt+z (etc) and shift+z (etc) and finally ctrl+z (etc). Pet attack and pet passive are bound to mouse buttons (currently using a 2 side button mouse as my last gaming mouse broke). A few auxillary pet skills are bound to f (mandible strike), g (lethargic venom) and r (devour).
spider heal and consumables are bound to modifier + r (so r is devour, shift+r is a heal potion, ctrl+r is spider heal... the r button is for healing) or modifier +f. That leaves me room to display all of my maps in quick slots layed out by location (though I am probably going to get around to getting those on a plugin like yours one of these days).
I can use every skill fluidly on the move without changing hand position, which is key for really fluid skill use.
I'll throw up a screenie of my setup sometime when I'm home.

I'm amazed you have skills
I'm amazed you have skills bound all the way to 8 (unless you have a secondary key set for those?)
Which plugins are you using? I like your HUD.

Which plugin are you using
Which plugin are you using for the map slots?
i do the same thing as feel. i can easily reach up to 8 comforatably, but find it awkward trying to use the modifier keys and the rest of the numbers so everything else is a click. i wanna be able to use more of my skills on a more regular bassis withiout shifting my keyboard hand or clicking. when in a fight and going against someone whos running around like a headless chicken its sometimes impossible to click on the skill i need because im a mouse turner, and its really hard trying to remember which keybind its on at the spur of the moment so i run around doing nothing for a few secs trying to get one skill to go off... which is why i like ur set up stickeez, and will experiment with something similar to find something that works. :)
