Hi!

It is legal to use a gaming mouse or a controller as long as you only assign one hotkey per button as is mentioned here:

5e) Is it allowed to use the extra buttons on a gaming mouse/keyboard as hotkeys?

Yes, you can generally use the buttons of your gaming mouse or keyboard like hotkeys. However, please note that you may not bind more than one action to a button. For instance, it is acceptable to bind to a button the drinking of a mana potion. However, it would be illegal to assign to a button the drinking of a mana potion and then casting "exura". Thereby, it does not matter if the action is performed by pressing a combination of keys (e.g. CTRL+F1) or a single key (e.g. F1).

Also, when reading the tibia rules in the Cheating part, they only mention unofficial software:

Using additional software to play the game:
Keep in mind that you are supposed to play the game yourself, not to have a tool or program play it for you. Doing so gives you an unfair advantage over players who invest time and effort to gain power. Using unofficial software such as a macro program or a so-called "tasker" or "bot" to automatically execute actions in Tibia for you may lead to a punishment. Thus, play fair.

It is important to note that they do not mention specifically an Xbox Controller, but nowadays there is not much difference between the functions that you could perform with a high-end gaming mouse and a console controller. 

Hope this was of help!
