Don't think anyone else has mentioned it but I love my HyperX Pulsefire Raid mouse! It's not a conventional MMO mouse so it doesn't just have a pad of 9 buttons on the side, but it does have a bunch of extra buttons however they are in a configuration that I feel is probably easier to use and memorize, which is why I got it. Using it with the modifier keys of Ctrl, Alt, and Shift, I'm able to have all my mounts, heal, auto-run, dodge, profession 1-4, utilities and elite skills, tab target, and auto-attack/1 skill all bound to my mouse buttons :D Highly recommend, especially if you think the traditional 9 pad button layout might be hard to remember/memorize or be less comfortable than ideal.

I had the exact problem with mices before. I got my hyperx raid a few years ago and its still going strong. Although knowing hyperx lately, they probably dont make it anymore, or even if they do they downgraded the quality greatly. I miss the old hyperx man.

I like my HyperX Pulsefire Raid It has 5 side buttons instead of 9 to 12 I don't find myself having enough controls or macros on the mouse for that many side buttons

HyperX raid is perfect for me in FF14. 4 side buttons and L/R mouse tilt. Remapped DPI button as well. Super comfortable and light. They stopped manufacturing it though, and my 5 year old one is on its last legs..

If anyone is interested the Hyper X Pulsefire Raid (mmo mouse) is decent for the money and is often on sale.

I have the pulsefire raid, and im planning on replacing it due to the mouse wheel. Turns out there is a flaw where dust will get into the mousewheel and prevent it from knowing the difference between scroll up vs down. I also have an issue with my hand cramping on the mouse.

same, my wired hyperx is the only mouse I always come back to and I’ve used about 15 other different mice from egg, logitech, razer, zowie, xtrfy and different chinese clones. Maybe it’s the shape or clicks, maybe both but my next mouse is probably going to be vaxee xe considering it has similar shape and amazing click quality
