    Finally going to get an MMO mouse and fix my keybinds

    Any suggestions for how to set this up? I play many jobs so I will need to bind keys which work for all of them.

    Logitech g600 is heavenly. It comes with a third mouse click button, which you can bind to a modifier. This allows for essentially 24 buttons all on the mouse itself. My setup makes very little use of the keyboard for combat because of this.

    Although I have yet to try it myself, I have heard very good things about the Razer Naga. And likely will be the mouse I switch to if I ever opt to try something else.

    I use a Corsair Scimitar mouse. I have mapped all 12 keys to my F-keys, 1-12. I also use Shift and Ctrl modifiers giving me 36 total possible keybinds just on my mouse!

    Bind the buttons to ctrl, alt, ctrl-alt, ctrl-shift, alt-shit, and then change your hotbars to those modifiers and like 1-5 or so. That's what I did, I have the same mouse.

    I have an mmo mouse and love it I don’t know how I would play without it. I pretty much just left the Mouse buttons and key binds in game set up as is. The mouse was by default set to 1-+= so I just left it. All I changed in game was to swap hot bar 2 to use shift and hot bar 3 to ctrl as that made more sense to me for some reason (I guess because shift is a little easier to reach while I’m also moving around).

    I use a Redragon Perdition these days. I used to use the Naga before they increased the size, and I tried a Logitech 600 but it's also made for players with bigger hands (male). The Redragon is very close to the original Naga in size so it fits well in my hand.

    I have three bars set up in a numberpad pattern, and one vertical bar with 3 binds set up for wheel clicks. One 12 skill bar with no modifier, which is normal rotation skills, one 12 bar with Shift, which special skills like speed boost, cooldowns, additional things for openers, etc, and the last 12 bar is kind of a spillover for things that aren't used often and uses ctrl modifier. I try to use that as little as possible since it's harder to get to the modifier key. The mouse wheel bar uses the same modifiers and those are for interrupt\rush skills on DoW, convert\transpose on blm.

    Good luck! It will definitely improve your gameplay.

    If you are a healer.. I still love using my Logitech G15 for quick spells I can set per player.
    Imagine 3 rows, 1 cure for each party member, esuna or even swiftcast raise. Its so lovely.

    I have a Razer Naga, but it seems like the Logitechs are easier to handle, because the side buttoms have a different shape, helping you to differentiate them. I'm really bad at this and I used to fat finger other skills. So I bound the same skills 2-3 times around that area -.- So I play with a mix of keyboard/mouse, having the most important skills key-bound in my mouse.
