"It feels so much better in my hand."
"I use them entirely because they feel extremely good in my hand ... whereas the competitors like the corsair and logitech just don't feel right."
"no other MMO mouse has better thumb button size/placement. ... No other mouse fits my thumb that well."

"I personally have been using a razer naga for 15 years now"

"Only the Naga let's me assign shift to one of the middle row buttons, then easily roll my thumb left and right to get shift4 or shift6 from just my thumb."
"With the Naga I map the center button on the bottom row to shift. ... And with that I can roll my thumb up, left, or right and get another three keybinds. ... And just having shift there also lets me press that for shift, instead of my left pinky. One less thing for my left hand to do. Makes Shift+4 while moving and jumping easier. ... This gives me ready, instant access to the entire hotbar. And with shift, an entire second hotbar (excepting shift+7 and shift+9)."
"Macros will let that be enough to play even a druid in all forms with every spell being useable. ... And this is without stopping movement to reach and without any annoying left pinky stretch ever being required."

"Side buttons variations for 14 buttons, 2 buttons or none depending on your gaming needs"
"Once you train yourself to find all the side buttons without looking, it's pretty great. ... I've used it across MMO's, shooters..."

"After 7-ish, double clicking Nagas"
"they broke so damn fast"
"The only problem is the scroll wheel always breaks after about 6 months and becomes useless. My 5th Naga just broke with exactly the same problem, and I'm very reluctant to buy another. ... Mine does the same but it's really bad, you can't control where you scroll at all. ... When things get intense in PvP I definitely grip and press the buttons harder than I need to, but I honestly can't help it. The only thing that can't take the punishment seems to be the scroll wheel. Either the click stops registering properly or the scrolling breaks. ... It doesn't always break in exactly the same way, sometimes the click stops registering properly and it either doesn't work or will start double clicking, sometimes the scrolling stops working and starts rubber banding back and forth erratically no matter which way I spin. ... I've been living with the issue for well over a year. ... I definitely think part of it is a me problem, but it happens to enough people that I think the components are just very cheap too and can't take the punishment. From the research I've done today, Razer aren't well known for their longevity that's for sure."

"Naga is too many small buttons for my fat greasy fingers."
"Naga's side buttons feel the best - very snappy, but its shape causes me to misclick at times."
"sometimes the buttonpresses won't register."

"Two Nagas broke the scroll mouse press button twice. ... Expensive Garbage"
"All of the MMO mice I’ve tried have terrible scroll wheel sensors that don’t last me more than a year or 2. ... Even the naga and aerox… thankfully I was able to get replacements for both under warranty."

"Or the Razer Naga that is 122g ... I've used all of them and the weight savings on the Aerox helped me no longer get any kind of wrist discomfort after days of longer gaming sessions."
"though heavy"
"I dislike the feeling of it in comparison. ... The Naga is lighter and I dislike that more ... The Naga feels lighter/cheaper"

aspaceadventure 1.0Razor Naga. This mouse works for over 10 years now without any issues. I can’t play this game without it anymore. I‘m not quite sure if you can get that model anywhere though, since that mouse is old and I never had to replace it.
I can't confirm that. My (wired) Naga works fine for ten years now - with constant daily usage. Maybe I'm just lucky?
Exactly. That’s the version I‘m talking about. This thing is indestructible. Unfortunately I hear that newer versions are not up to that standard.
I‘m talking about the old wired version. That thing served me for 10 years now without any issues. Personally I‘d never buy a wireless mouse out of principle. I see too many people having issues with the batteries after a few years. It‘s nothing more funny than you tank/healer stops moving during an operation or flashpoint because his mouse run automatically of has … eh energy. It happened quite a few tubes in my guild.
Holy shit. What versions did you get? The wired 2012 version like me?
karma629 1.0If you find it cheap I have 2 suggestions: Mad Catz MMO TE. Razer Naga Epic 2012 version(wireless or not is is PERFECT)
KingGinger3187 1.0Wired Razor Naga 2012. Still kicking ass without maintenance or replacements. I'll never NOT have one.
No_Director9292 1.0The 2012 Naga was the best mouse I've ever used. My Logitech super light is wonderful but it only has 2 side buttons. The new Naga was made for a Duplo person.
trojangod 1.0Still using my naga from 2011. Best mmo mouse made.

Auxilium1 0.4I still have and use my Naga 2012.
cphi87 0.42012 era naga was the best they could charge me 200+ for a re edition of this and I would gladly pay
grim5000 0.4I had one, and it died on me in about a year. Before that I had a 2012 naga for about 12 years and it ran well for about 6 years before I needed to start working on it. Pulling hair out of the scroll wheel's inside, and adding super glue to the lmb part that pushes the switch since it would wear out. For the naga pro v2, I've found that it works pretty well, but the side buttons sometimes need to be resealed because they occasionally stop working.
hoopthot 0.4I still have my Naga from 2011-2012 and although it works, I did get another one 😂
