If you're using the d-pad to control your character like I am there is a bit of a learning curve as the d-pad is slightly off-centre. You'll need to practice a bit to go consistently in a straight line. Aside from that though it's really easy to use.
Okay mate, I've read some reviews and will either get my brother to modify the d-pad for an analog stick, or, run the WASD in the central area and use the d-pad for 8 button presses (Not for movement). I accidentally bought the Pro version but the switch activations are faster. I will see what I'm most comfortable with and determine the setup when I can get in game.
I won't use the double use functions for the Pro though, but, I will reduce the key activation to the highest preset possible for faster activation. Don't need a double press per button. I've heard the double press isn't too good anyway.
Edit: Spelling mistakes.
Yeah, sounds excellent mate. I've ordered The Huntsman Elite too. My current Logitech Keyboard is longer due to Macro Keys. I never use the Macro Keys so the space is wasted space. I should be able to sort the space out quite well indeed.
I need to try this. Hard to get away from my keyboard. What do you jump with? 20? I feel like jumping puzzles could get tricky on that.
I am using the Wireless Razer Naga Pro Trinity and its been great. Just a few hurdles. The 12 buttons are small. You also have to pinky grip the mouse which takes a bit of getting used to. But for an MMO mouse with customization I am not sure you can find better.
Yes, if you use the d-pad to move then jumping puzzles can get pretty hard. I personally use the scroll wheel on the Taurus to jump and that works fine for what I'm doing in wow classic.
If I want to do soon real jumping puzzles or similar, I just use my normal keyboard
I'd imagine you'd map one of the main keys to jump, it is fully remappable after all.
The little button above the joy stick is default space bar for jump.
A being can not judge light if he has never seen it, neither can he judge darkness if he never has been it
@PollexTroy I personally have jump bound to key 19 and press it with my index finger. That way I can still be moving around while I jump. Key 20 I have bound to my mount.
I knew you cared, really!
Now, now, no need to get all mushy. You are still a part of the brotherhood after all (although a weaker, smaller version). Plus there is ALWAYS a need to keep someone around to throw to the wolves should they be nipping at your heels
If you can get used to it, a razer Tartarus/Orbweaver for your left hand could also be useful.
Hahaha, I've already told my guild that the strongest part of my PvP game is as the cannon fodder.
My long time set up was the Tartarus, Naga and one of their macro keyboards. I just wish Razer had better quality control. Lately I am using a Harpoon with a simple Razer keyboard.
My advice for Razer products is to have backups and the budget for replacements. Part of it is build quality, part is software, part is Microsoft Windows. Now granted, I am a bit hard on my equipment. I’ve worn out the ASWD keys on so many keyboards, especially the A key.
I have the discontinued Madcatz M.M.O 7 one now, with a broken scrollwheel, but I absolutely love the button layout on it. I want to find one with a similar thumbstick on the side at the very least. Anyone know a good one?
I switched over to the G600 about a year ago and its much better in quality. I love the extra 3rd ring finger button as well. I use it for my push to talk on discord
I also prefer a split ergonomic keyboard over the left hand pad. Its got more buttons that way. I tend to play with esdf rather thank wasd for movement as well. Better positioning to all of the buttons on the left half of the keyboard.
Glad someone understands. I can't stress how hesitant I was to switch to Logitech over razor when I had a whole suite of matching stuff that all worked well at one time. It took years of loss of functionality and more and more invasive software to wake me up to the fact that razor is on the decline.
These days I rock a hand made keeb with QMK and the g600. The only thing that would make me ditch the g600 is if I made my own 3D-printed MMO mouse using QMK and a Teensey. Something that is possible, but a project I have not been motivated to take on.
I have put thought towards a split keeb myself. I even printed out an Ergodox shell for a friend. I can see the benefits, but I just have not been motivated to make the switch. Maybe some day I will see the light.
This is my personal feedback, shared to help the game thrive in its niche.
