The clicky thing your hand is on

World of Warcraft MMO Legendary mouse

I'm looking at all these expensive mice and wondering what the point is. I have a mouse that moves the pointer and clicks. So, basically it does everything I need it to. I've seen mice with more buttons than Michael Knight's Pontiac, but if it's a nightmare to use half of them they're kind of useless at the end of the day.

Mine has a scroll wheel, two buttons and has faithfully served me for years. Tis all I need to play.

I use a Logitech G600. It's a little big for my hand, but it's a good mouse especially if you have a lot of keybinds.

Red Dragon Mammoth.

Stop laughing at me, stop it...

Ah inferior PC race who sits all the time in front of their superior, more expensive computers where the money would be better put in a benefitial way elsewhere.

i use a Dual Shock 4 and a Logitech keyboard

Standard Microsoft mouse that came with my computer. I use keybinds for my actions and move with the mouse so it works out fine for me (I never could get the hang of using WASD to move after years and years of playing games that used the arrow keys or the number pad to move).

Logitech G500s - love it

I'm currently using a Logitech G500. It's technically an FPS mouse, but I like all the same.

No offence ment, nothing wrong with using a controller plenty of people play this game well with them, just thought it would be funny :p

Its true I could use more hookers and weed.

Logitech G600 is the way to go. hover mouse over 1/2 the hotbar.. 1-12 on mouse...

Took a while to get used to but now I couldn't go back.


I did try the g602, but didn't like the sharp feeling of the buttons.


But the new Corrair MMO mouse where you can change the pos of the extra 12 buttons really looks good.

I'm using the Anker 8200 dpi mouse. It's amazing for the price, but after about 8 months of using it, it's showing some wear on the left and right click buttons. Definitely great for the price though, it's better than some expensive ones.

So i decided to return the Erebos. Is there a mouse that has the similar fit as the G602, doesnt need to be wireless.

... I may have to give this a shot. Compare to $130us for the Roccat mmo mouse, this looks to be a much better deal.

Corsair makes exceptionally solid peripherals.

if u have no mouse buttons how do you even level 60 keybinds

Just a standard $5 Samsung mouse for my PS4. No complaining for almost like 3 months.

First I open Actions and Traits and go to the page with the action I want. Highlighting the action I want I press Square and choose Assign to Hotbar. Pressing Left or Right Shoulder I then press the button for where I want the action. I repeat this for every action I want. Sometimes I first make a macro (which I'll not describe here for brevity), but the process is pretty much the same with the exception that the macro menu has no pages to navigate. So far it's worked just fine, and I've done everything save beat Titan (and by extension Ifrit) Extreme, Twintania (and by extension Second and Final Coil), Bismark (and by extension Ravana... how the Hive Bow eludes me) Extreme or Alexander Savage. Controller for life!

Append: Typos, yay!

Proper macro usage can bring most lvl 60 jobs down to 1 and a half cross hotbars pretty easily. Using only a third for rarely used abilities.

I'm using the Razer Naga Hex and I love it. I find having the 6 buttons easy to manage. For skill shortcuts I use 1-6, ctrl 1-6, shift 1-6 than alt 1-6. It's alright, but I kinda want to get a MMO mouse with more thumb buttons and see how that works out for me.

Clicky thing?
You mean this called Dual Shock 3/4?

Kensington Expert Mouse (trackball, great for FPSes, too).

I use an Arachnid Sicarius (link to picture - people with spider phobias should be aware that Arachnid's logo is a spider and is displayed on the mouse).
It has enough buttons for my taste, all of them programmable. Since I never really change DPI settings and just find it annoying when I accidentally click that button and end up with a slogging-through-molasses mouse speed, I don't have a button with that function anymore xD
For hotbars, I mainly use slot 1-6 (well, my hotbars start on the key to the left of 1, which on my keyboard is §, and end on 5, but it's still 6 slots) and use one mouse button for ctrl and one for alt, to give me a potential of four hotbars. Less used skills are non-keybound and I just click on them to use them (summons, limit break, raise, etc.).
I also have one button set as F2, to give me a convenient shortcut to the tank for when I heal, and one key to select my focused target.


As for keyboard, I use the A4 Tech X7 G800V (picture). It's a cheap one, so the keys are a bit... rattly if I shake the keyboard, but it's functionally sound, and the best of all is that it has the thumb macro keys, which I use for an additional hotbar (macroed to ctrl+shift+#, iirc) with more important less-often-used skills, such as protect, stoneskin, stances (cleric, tank/offtank), mudras and such things. Still haven't seen another keyboard with more than three thumb keys. (I've also moved one of the rubber keys from the arrow pad to my § key and one to my 5 key, to give me a tactile feedback of where I am which means I have to look down at the keyboard less often to avoid hitting the wrong skill/spell.)

which clicky thing?
this?

Currently using a Razer Naga Molten, though during a couple of moves some months back, whoever moved my computer must have been really rough on the mouse, because something inside is broken and sliding around, causing the mouse to malfunction every now and then. But before that, the scroll button on the mouse will periodically stop working. I'm definitely going to replace it when I have the cash to, possibly with a Logitech G600.

I love things where the LEDs can have their color changed so much.

Using a Logitech G502 Proteus Core. After 3 Naga MMO mice that broke after 3 months of use I will never ever go again to Razer low quality products.

Mouse: Logitech G303 Daedalus Apex. Small, light-weight and extremely accurate sensor.

Keyboard: Ducky Mini. Small and mechanical. No nonsense performer.

Controller: Logitech F710. Wireless with long battery life. My preferred layout (Dual Shock) but with the more common Xbox button icons.
http://i.imgur.com/88jAOl9.png

I mostly use mouse+keyboard but for some tasks such as mining I usually switch to the controller.

Does anyone have experience with these mice and can share their opinions:
Mad Catz MMO 7
Gamdias Zeus
Roccat Tyon (cat on the palm is off putting)..
Utechsmart Uranus

I keybound all XIV commands to mimic the same keyboard-only controls I have on FFXI. Mouse is overrated.

I ended up getting a CM Storm Inferno, works great and no hand pains

I used to use a CM Xornet, before the scroll wheel started getting funky on me.

I've been using a Razer Deathadder (2013) since. (Been about 7 months now)
It's a very comfortable mouse and I don't regret the purchase. It's just unfortunate that the rubber grip on the left side fell off very quickly. (Within a month)

Naga Hex. I originally had the 12 button naga, but the buttons were too close together, the last row was hard to hit accurately, and it wasn't heavy enough. Returned it for the hex and haven't looked back. The buttons are easy to hit and the weight is perfect. These are just my preferences of course. Some like lightweight mice, but I like to have some weight to them.

I have a g600 too, love it! But...what to you mean by the bolded comment? Am I missing some awesome feature that would make my life even easier?!

i using cheap, local branded Rexus (?) G6, its big because my palm is very big, have two extra macro button for using mount and confirm button, so i can spamming the nodes with my thumb not index finger ( i do gathering 5-6 hour a day), very light, and cheap (4$).

planning to get razer naga soon, but i worry my finger is too big for naga

I use a Logitech G402 here, and a regular amazon keyboard which I like a lot since the F-keys are right above the number keys so i can easily use both for my hotbars.

The G402 I like a lot. I originally was considering the G502/G602, but after getting my hands on both and testing them out I just opted for the G402 instead. Just enjoy the feel of the 402 more since the 502 buttons feel more flimsy (also dislike the scroll wheel). The 602 seemed like a good choice but just opted for the lower price and the wired design of the G402 since I'd burn through that 250 hour battery life of the 602 constantly.

I'm still using my Razer Naga I bought back in 2010. Haven't had any issues with it surprisingly and I have put it through some heavy use.

I just use a regular logitech G9X with the small grip which I like because it reminds me of the old mouseman from the 90s. I've never gotten on with mice with tons of buttons (though I have tried) so I just use regular buttons on it. Also most mice are huge which I don't like.

Was using the R.A.T. 7 for a while, but even after I got a replacement, the laser tracker broke.

Now I am stuck with my 3 year old R.A.T. 3 again^^

Logitech Trackball, great for playing from the couch =P

Imo, mice are overrated and have a minimal impact to gaming ability (in terms of buttons). What I think matters more is you find a mouse that fits your hand well, and is easy for you to use (muscle memory). Keyboards on the other hand matter a lot more. So instead of getting some 12 button mouse, I have a keyboard with extra buttons and find it much easier to use those as hot key modifiers than a 12 button mouse.

My Keyboard is a Roccat ISKU and my Mouse is a Razor Death Adder (2 side buttons, left/right/scroll) = 5 button mouse.

The Death Adder fits my hand really well, and it's named after a snake!
