Razer - Naga V2 HyperSpeed

I was sceptical of the brand at first, but my Razer Naga V2 Hyperspeed is actually a pretty good wireless mouse, although it is on the lighter side of weight. It uses one AA battery and has no LEDs (other than a power/connection indicator) in order to save that battery power. It replaced my old Logitech G600. Don't be intimidated by the number of buttons. Once you get used to it, it is amazing for productivity.

razer naga v2 hyperspeed it uses a battery you can replace which was the selling point for me. it lasts for ages on battery. have had mine over a year no issues.

yeah it uses an AA battery, you can just use a rechargeable. just keep a spare fully charged up one around, you won't be swapping very often though if thats the concern. they say the battery is 250hrs on 2.4ghz mode or 400hrs if you set it to bluetooth. either way, its ages. it has a red LED that flashes when its at like 5 or 10% (cant recall which).

I recently got the Razer Naga V2 hyperspeed. (Bluetooth and no RBG) and I love it from my MMORPGs

I have a hyperspeed naga which is quite a chunk cheaper than the pro, it also has wheel tilt (if you mean left and right wheel click)

I use the dpi buttons you mentioned for my defensive cooldowns, so yeah really useful. Side plates, optical switches, rechargeable battery, rgb on the pro as well as adjustable mouse scroll wheel I think I read somewhere? Hyperspeed has 1x aa battery, I've never used or held a pro so I can't compare directly but I'm happy with the hyperspeed.

Razer naga v2 hyperspeed is awesome

You can still get that one in wireless form at least, I just got mine on Amazon this week. The Razer Naga V2 Hyperspeed

Currently naga V2 hyperspeed, i do use a lot of map grip too. I really like it, good shape, extra easy to change battery, if you get a small 2 slot battery charger and 2 rechargable batteries you are, virtually, always ready. It has 2.4 receiver or bluetooth. 12 buttons on the side that are default mapped as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - = I have no complain, aside that i would have liked it to have "mouse button1" instead of a button that already exist on the keyboard. Please avoid the Corsair Scimitar normal or Elite, they have a know flaw related to the scroll wheel, it brakes so easily ending up clicking but not rolling. I have 3 of them in my electronic graveyard drawer.

G600 is dead. Has been for years now, though you can find the Japanese version "Logicool g600t" on ebay but it's not worth the price. And just to be specific since there are a lot of Nagas, there's only the wireless "Naga V2" Hyperspeed and Pro. They stopped making the Naga X and other cheaper wired versions.

Naga v2 hyper speed works great for me. Super comfy. Came from a scimitar wired that would double click after a lot of usage. I tried going back to the scimitar when they had a wireless one but the comfortability for palm grip was terrible compared to the naga. Need more brands and models for MMO mice for sure but I’m really happy with my Naga v2 hyper speed

I like the V2 Hyperspeed a lot. It’s light, has handled a year or so of heavy use really well. I’ve used Nagas, Scimitars, and even the Amazon Reddragon special and have never had a scroll wheel break on any of them. As far as the Nagas go, the only problem I have had was the switches in the left mouse and #1 buttons going out on the original Naga I had for about 10 years of use on SWG and WoW. (I ordered some switches and a new keypad on eBay and managed to keep it going for a year or so after). What are you doing with the scroll wheel? If you are particularly hard on the scroll wheel and set in your ways, you might want to try the Reddragon, which is decently sturdy and easily replaceable. My wife used a Scimitar for a few years and it’s really sturdy but the numbers flake after a while. Good luck with the v2!

You gott a use RAZOR NAGA V2 HYPERSPEED!!! Its so good !! I love this mouse SM FRIEND trust me get the NAGA V2 HYPERSPEED i was so worried what to get i even use credit card i buy NAGA V2 PRO 2 ANND HYPERSPEED 2 guess what i RETURN the RAZOR NAGA V2 PRO 2 It too heavy !! I like the RAZOR NAGA V2 HYPERSPEED it so good AND the 2 button on the front are SUCH better that the V2 PRO 2 !!! Go for the RAZOR NAGA V2 HYPERSPEED !!

NAGA V2 hyper speed is SO GOOD I even bought the more expensive V2 pro version I RETURN IT because I like the hyper scan more !! Lighter and the 2 button on the left front side are very useful !! Worth every penny !!

In use number 3 RAZER NAGA V2 HYPERSPEED and it is. Amazing !! I don’t think you will not like it friend I. Tried Corsair SCIMITAR and the buttons so clicky idk it felt sort cheap

NAGA V2 hyperspeed is GREAT I buy both the naga v2 pro AND hyperspeed and returned the pro because I like how like it the hyperspeed is and the 2 extra buttons on the top are actually VERY useful !

NAGA Hyperspeed V2. Is great !!!

Just a question, why do you hate the wireless Razer Naga v2? That's the mouse I'm using and it's amazing.

I've tried a bunch of cheap MMO mice from Amazon, but I always end up returning them and going back to a Razer Naga as the side buttons give the best feedback. 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. Out of the other premium brands, which MMO mice have a similar feel with good quality side buttons? I'm willing to try anything else at this point, I just hope the scroll wheel lasts longer than 6 months. Update: I'm getting a Razer Naga V2 HyperSpeed, it has a completely different scroll wheel to all the previous Naga's I've used, and it won't break the bank like a Pro V2. I really hope this scroll wheel is more robust, but only time will tell. Thanks for all the input everyone, very much appreciated. Update 2: I just tried the advice /u/ShadoGear gave, and it only bloody worked!! https://www.reddit.com/r/MMORPG/s/x1prWOuidP The scroll wheel is working perfectly again, dust must have gotten into the sensor! I'm going to keep my HyperSpeed as it's so nice having a wireless mouse again, and I have a good spare now, so chuffed 🙂

Well I've had this Naga for 2 years now and I'm pretty heavy handed. The MMB still works fine, and the scrolling issue ending up being dust stuck in the scroll sensor and is fixed now. The MMB went on a couple of them but that was years ago and I can't remember the exact circumstances. I think it was on the special edition SWTOR Naga's, so it could have just been an issue with that particular model. I honestly wouldn't worry about it, as long as you're not pressing too hard it should last you many years.

That's good to know thanks, I found a couple of posts about the issue too, and it does look a bit flimsy in the pictures as there's no front support. Not sure it would last very long in my hands either. I think I'm just going to have to get another Naga but make sure to use the warranty if it breaks again, rather than suffer in silence!

Well it happened to my original Naga, then it happened to my special edition SWTOR Naga, so I got a second hand SWTOR Naga off eBay and it happened to that one. And I'm now on my second wired Naga after that. I try to live with it as long as possible before getting a new one, it also depends on the game I'm playing at the time. Yeah I've been trying hard to stay calm and not press so hard, and the better I get the easier it becomes. But I still do it sometimes when things get really intense. My friends used to joke in school that I had retard strength as I wasn't a big guy and didn't train, but could beat anyone in an arm wrestle, so it probably is me if it's not a common issue. I can't be that unlucky lol Come to think of it my work mice used to break after a while too, I'm really going to have to focus harder on not clicking so hard on the scroll wheel from now on 😅

Interesting, what behaviour do you get if you don't blow onto it? Curious if that would work with mine. I went out and got the V2 HyperSpeed today so I'll need to get it out and try.

I found the Razer Naga v2 hyperspeed was the best for me. Steelseries came close, but i like how the razer is in my hand than the steelseries.

very sad that there are no other mice like the g600 with the third button i can press with my ring finger, but I just got the Naga v2 Hyperspeed like 2 weeks ago and I like it.

IMO yes. I was looking at getting MX Master 3s for work, but I ended up getting a Razer Naga v2 Hyperspeed over it. I dont like that a premium mouse like that doesn't have the option of an onboard memory profile which holds your customization. It requires the logitech app. Some companies may be funny with installing applications like that. The Razer Naga has like 19 programmable buttons. Bluetooth or 2.4Ghz wireless options. You do need to install Synapse on a system to configure the mouse but once you do, the profile saves to the mouse and works either you connect via BT or Wireless dongle. Battery is great so far, weight is nice and it feels good in the hand. Also has the infinite scroll wheel. Lastly, my daily work laptop is a macbook, and I use it on here. I just had to change the modifier key on the OSX settings and I was good to go.

I would recommend a 12 side button MMO mouse. I was originally a Logitech G600 user but if specs matter to you, I'd recommend the Razer Naga V2 (Hyperspeed model but the Pro is decent too). I'm really into mouse tech and r/MouseReview and out of all the 12 button MMO mice, this one has the most updated switches and sensors (mechanical switches to avoid double clicking and 30k optical sensors for better accuracy and lower latency). Sadly, Logitech (G600) and Corsair (Scimitar) have not refreshed those mice in over a decade. Newer tech is more common with FPS mice but luckily Razer updated their MMO mice recently.

I spent about a thousand dollars over the last few months trying out every single mmo mouse on the market. They all suck in one way or another, I could write an entire essay going over the particular issues I had with each one and how none of them were perfect but the one I finally settled on was the razor naga pro v2. I’m a huge mouse enjoyer so this was a particularly surprising experience for me as previously I shit on razer mice pretty heavily but I truly believe and can confirm this is the least bad mmo mouse on the market right now, especially when you’re including the software because holy fuck is all of the mice software fucking awful. Additionally, the naga v2 hyperspeed also isn’t bad but you’re missing out on the significantly better sensor, optical switches, rechargeable battery. Special mention to the SteelSeries aerox 9 and the Corsair darkstar, both are very nice pieces of hardware that both were close but not good enough and both having the cream of the crap worst software in the market. Razer has never been great but their software is actually pretty decent, I think it got shit on so hard and so long that they have had more time and incentive to work harder than the others.

I have the Naga V2 Hyperspeed. If you like the shift button for your side buttons, this mouse has two of them. And it's wireless.

I've replaced my Naga 5 different times since 2009 (3 Naga1s, and 2 Naga 2s)... Problem is the left or right mouse buttons click eventually starts glitching out and it will start dbl clicking even though you're single clicking. It's happened on each of them...same issue all times

I got a naga v2 and it’s been very good to me. Tactile side buttons are really nice and battery life is really good too.

I currently have the Razer Naga v2 wireless, and I'm extremely happy with it. Build quality feels much better than previous generations of Naga, and haven't had an issue with (yet). I also have the charging dock from my older Razer Viper Ultimate, and that has been working without issues as well. I don't take advantage of the replacement sides, it's always just using the 12 button side option. So I'm not sure how reliable this mouse would be for someone that is always changing the side buttons (I have a Lamzu Thorn for everything else other than WoW)

Everyone has great suggestions. I still prefer my Naga V2 with swappable side panel. You can switch from 2 keys, 6 key {I think} and my favorite is the 12 key. Soooooo much better to program keys like the inventory key, the "F" key, hotkeys for weapons and usables. So yeah, Naga V2 or V2 Pro. My suggestion for you.

Im on the NAGA v2, I haven't found anything remotely close to it.

I've tried a bunch of mice and ended up sticking with Razer Naga V2. I started out with an old wired Naga, then went to Scimitar then G600. G600 was my favorite for a while, but they stopped making them. A few years ago I bought a wireless Razer Naga V2 and have used it ever since, feels like the best one so far. I find having buttons around the mouse make it hard for me to press, I usually just use 1-8 then shift/alt/ctr + 1-8.

I personally have been using Razer Naga v2. I bought it for like $80 on amazon and it's wireless. I love the ability to customize how many buttons I want on each side along with their easy to use app. to customize the button key binds with ease. You can change the colors it lights up, mouse speed and so much more with their app seamlessly. I made a video on how I use it to play my one video game and makes thing so easy and I have tried many different brands and models but always open for other ideas.

I loved my Razer Naga and Naga v2. Both lived for 5 years, first one "died" when it started to get doubleclicks and on v2 the mouse wheel died. Was a godsend for a MOBA player like me who moves the camera with WASD and needs extra keys for items/abilities

It kinda sucks but there are not many good options. The naga typically feels great but have a reputation of being built like shit. Supposedly the newer naga pro is a lot better but they tend to be really expensive, they are probably the best mmo mouse out there right now. The chinese ones are ok, they get the work done but don't feel as good but they are also dirt cheap. The g600 was also amazing but you can't get them anymore for a reasonable price. For a while Logitech was supposed to be working on a lightspeed version but it never came out. Pretty much I think if your budget is high enough go for the naga pro or naga v2.

I’m using a naga as we speak

Think the v2 comes with three side pieces

This is one I will give a try. I did order a glorious i2 which has I think 4 or 5 side buttons but the naga looks pretty cool for customization of side panel. Thank you again beatzs

I will also use this mouse for making techno with a few programs and like the ability for macros and presets the side buttons will offer me

Both Naga V2 Pro and Naga X have optical switches, so no possibility of having double click and longer lifespan. Only Naga V2 HyperSpeed have mechanical switches which are bound to double click someday.

I have the steel series and like it a lot. I had the naga V2 and it is the single worst mouse I have ever used so I would avoid that one if I were you.

Right, the Razer Naga V2 is a solid choice. Another option is the Logitech G600; it's got 12 side buttons and great performance for MMOs. Give it a go!

Razer Naga V2. It is the only MMO mouse I know that has 12 buttons on the side (with a swappable side for 6 and 2 buttons) and is also wireless!! It's a shame that I'm forced to buy such awesome mouse to a greedy company that is terribly bad repair-wise. But boy does it run. All the spells are under my thumb and easily accessible.

I have the G502 Hero and Naga hyperspeed V2. I love them both!

Razer Naga Pro (2020) and V2 of it. I tried I think most alternatives, I had Corsair Scimitar at the time it was popular, but the software was ass and it didn't had internal memory, so I could not use it across multiple pc's or even on linux, the button tho a bit slanted were not easy (for me) to make apart. I will never recommend it just due to software being a cow nowadays. I used G600 it was really nice, but I had some issues with software saving my profiles properly. I had ReDragon MMO mouse and same as Scimitar, the buttons were hard to make apart and IIRC didn't had internal memory at the time. As for my Razer Naga 2020, only problems I had in the past \~4 years were MMB double-triple clicking, I had 2 new mouses and 1 repair on it. Nothing else really broke, I still have aliexpres charging thingie, but the pins need cleaning like once a week (at least in my case) with some alcohol wipes to work properly, so I just use the USB cable to charge it.

Razer Naga X is the only mouse I have liked. Pure mmo (no panel swapping) and leans towards the lighter side for this category in terms of weight. It is wired though, so if you care about wireless and don’t mind a weight increase, Naga V2 is the same mouse but wireless and slightly better overall. I tried and ALMOST fell in love with the SteelSeries Aerox 9, but the button placement felt off (I’m sure I’d get used to it over time). Extremely lightweight wireless mmo mouse. I have the Naga X for mmo games and have fully separate mouse for everything else (superlight pro). The 12 side buttons are an absolute game changer.

Looking for a new mouse. Only play wowand only do Arena. I can get by with a minimum of 3 side buttons. Not interested in The Logitech MMO mouse I use that for a day and couldn't stand it. I ran the first Corsair scimitar for a while and I wasn't a huge fan but it wasn't horrible so the new wireless version is something that I'm looking at. Naga pro V2 is not something I'm interested in. I have a naga pro right now and I'm not a fan of the software. So my requirements are good software a minimum of three side buttons. Wireless and wired. And something on the bigger side that'll fit my hand. Not really concerned about cost not even really concerned if the mouse needs anything changed bonus points if there's any STLs out there for the mouse that I could print a different shell for that would give me the fit that I want.

Same play style, brother! Except it wasn't a stroke for me. Pretty similar mapping as I use, but I traded abilities for more movement (in FPS games). I crouch with 7, reload with 6 and jump with 8. I play with MMO mouses since the first Naga came out and now im at my 17th MMO style mouse, the Naga Pro v2. Have/had them all, EVERY Naga, G600, Corsair Scimitar, Steelseries, noname Utechsmart things from Amazon... You will wear them out pretty good, but it's worth it! It's a learning curve, and you get better every day, I played competitive Counter-Strike one-handed, so we can do everything! Good luck and much success! If I can help you with something, ask away.

I've had the best experience with the Naga v2 pro. The driver/software could be better, but I was even more dissatisfied with the software that went with my corsair stuff when I was using a scimitar. The biggest complaint I had with older Naga models was wearing out the left or right switches, which have been updated with optical switches in the new model.

Also agree, the Naga v2 Pro is a perfect mouse. I don't even use the funky scroll wheel customisations.

I've used the scimitar, the g600, an original naga, and now on a v2 naga pro. I would say my favourite is EASILY the v2 Naga Pro, but it's extremely expensive. I love being able to change the side panel as I hated playing shooters with the MMO side, so it feels more versatile. The sensor is also far superior to the others from what I notice, it seems to track very well. The others aren't bad though. I'd probably rank the Scimitar as my favourite for pure comfortability and ease of pressing the right buttons for strict WoW use.

Logitech G602, I bought 2 of them years ago I wish I had more. I own a Naga Pro V2, the software is garbage. It tough finding a good long term multi button programming mouse these days

Naga V2 Pro. All the others cannot compare (expect Logitech’s awesome mouse - though it’s way too expensive and hard to find new at this point)

I just went through mouse shopping myself and let me sum up what Ive tried and what I settled on: 1. Corsair scimitar - Tried it for a few days, ultimately I did not find it comfortable. The numbers on the side being able to slide was nice, but I have smallish hands and couldnt get my grip to feel good. I also found the numbers on the side to be too flush with each other, making it easy to misclick or click multiple buttons at once 2. Steelseries Aerox 9 - Splurged and tried the WoW anniversary edition. Got returned almost immediately, again found to be too large and uncomfortable. But it also just didnt work, the sensor on the mouse just didnt want to work on any surfaceI put it on (flat on desk, nor mousepad). Resulting in a lot of stutter. 3. Naga Pro v2 - This is what I most recently have bought and settled on. Very comfortable in my hand, has changeable sideplates so you can switch out how many buttons you want on the side. However, it is very expensive.

The only good mmo mouse is the naga v2 pro the rest are crap and for eSports lightweight mice with minimal buttons are the way to go

Naga v2 Pro for me. Zero issues with it since launch. I just prefer the switches,ability to swap out side plates,scroll wheel functions.

A bit pricey but so far I've really enjoyed the Naga V2 Pro.

People are recommending the Naga Pro, although after owning 2 I would not. Get the regular naga with 12 buttons that doesn’t allow you to change the side buttons. Just my opinion.

Razer Naga. I have the wireless version, and its worked wonders for a few years now.

A razor naga had a wired one from the start of legion till now and recently got the wireless one have had no issues with either.

I went through a Naga, Scimitar, and g600. I decided go wireless and the best option I ended up going with was the naga. I was surprised how much I like it, I thought I would have liked the scimitar more, but I'm team Naga once more in my life.

I have a wireless one and it constantly stops working for like 1.5 seconds. It’s some known software issue for which there still is no patch fix.

https://insider.razer.com/razer-support-45/razer-devices-constantly-disconnecting-and-reconnecting-42226

This one is great when it works or lucky. I loved it soooo much because it was comfy so I kept giving it chances. Buuuut I've burned through 3 of them though over a few years (averaged about 1.5 - 2 years each), all scroll wheel issues. I'm a heavy user but not an abusive user... just normal gameplay. The symptom was always the same: scroll wheel started skipping, eventually stops scrolling completely. Corsair support kinda sucked. One was registered online with warranty etc. but because I didn't have the original box they wouldn't honor an RMA, so I attempted repair but no luck. Currently on year 2 of a wireless razer naga, so far so good. Don't really care for razer products but it's working. Logitech G600 was flawless as well. I have a new one as a backup in case my naga dies. Just wish these had a wireless version.

I like the Naga because it is one of the only (or only?) wireless ones with 12 side buttons, but Razer definitely has quality issues with their stuff. The side panels are swappable (another cool thing) but the 4 button one stopped working and there isn't any way to buy replacements other than random used ones off ebay. I'm just waiting for the 12 button one to fail :( My keyboard (Black Widow v4 pro) is great, but also failed - some of the keys would register 0 - 4 times per keypress. Luckily that one was still in warranty and their warranty service was great at replacing it. Their software sucks - somehow it is even worse than iCue. It started randomly stealing focus, which is awesome when it minimizes your game! I like they design and features of their products, but for how expensive they are, they should last a little longer.

I’m not always a fan of pushing razer products but their 12 button mouse has been my favorite mouse for years. Their program isn’t perfect but I can customize so much shit so easily for me it’s the best. Had this mouse at least a few years before I got another used and it’s been going strong. Got 12 side buttons. Two top buttons. The mouse wheel can be pushed left or right as well for two more

Someone bought the SWTOR Naga for me that christmas it was released. The battery swelled up a long time ago, and I've had to replace the clickers, but I still use it every day!

For me, I've been using the Razer Naga with the 12 button side for more than a decade. It takes a while to get used to, no lie. But I picked one button and mapped it to one action (a spell) and got used to that one button. Then I expanded as quickly as I felt comfortable. I wouldn't play without it now.

My only issue has been the 12 button has completely stopped working - I’ve cleaned all the contacts with isopropyl, and everything works except for 12 <\3

I used to have the 12 buttons Razer Naga, but then modified keybinds to have 3 rows 1-9, control1-control9 and shift1-shift9. So I just need the 2 modifiers on the mouse (using wireless Razer Viper now).

First proper gaming mouse I got was the Razer Naga with the 12 buttons on your thumb and middle mouse buttons. I've the tried the Logitech Hero (G502? can't remember) and some other less popular variants and brands but nothing beats my first love. My Razer Naga Pro is just too good. Most expensive mouse but the option to go wireless or not, Side buttons variations for 14 buttons, 2 buttons or none depending on your gaming needs, and simple dpi settings which you can choose on the fly makes the mouse absolutely worth it. I love the ergonomics on it too. Just bloated enough to fit my palm and evenly weighted for comfort. No regrets.

Same experience with razer mouses here. Had the one with a numeric pad, what was it - naga or something like that. Actually used the pad a lot instead of kbd for hero skills and it did die on me before even warranty ended, had it replaced and it died again the same way, then just lost it and brought 10EUR vertical mouse which still is going after many years no issues. One could argue that the pad was flimsy and I maybe used it too much but then why have it as a feature if it's half assed. Wasnt happy with this company at all.

In my experience they all get double click at some point. But either Razer naga or Logitech g600 are fine. Corsair makes a pretty good one too. Go to best buy if you can and check them out. Logitech g600 might be hard to find since they aren’t made anymore.

Scimitar 4th year no problems. But Razer Naga is solid.

On all my toons I bind movement speed to the mouse wheel tilt so that was important to me too. The Logitech G604 also has decent side buttons (6 + 2 top) and mouse wheel tilt... Logitech discontinued it last year though so when mine dies I'm probably going to have to go back to Naga, which I got the Logitech to avoid since my Nagas kept breaking.

Naga feels the best, razer sucks though

your best bet is to go to a local electronics store like Best Buy if you can. if you're lucky they will have display mice out you can try out. the only real recommendation is to get an "mmo mouse", that is, a mouse with 12 buttons on the side. other than that the best one to get is the one that feels best in your hand. everyone has their own experiences with durability. I know many hate on the naga for not being durable, but I've used the naga for 13 years now and am on my 3rd, granted I can also be a bit rough with them. 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.

Ah okay makes sense you just want to try new things and stuff, alright man sounds good for the razer naga, aerox 5, and this one has 4 buttons but the pulsar x2a. Keep on grinding man have a nice day!

Naga is better for small hands. The Scimitar is pretty bulky. Otherwise, I agree.

Razer Naga, Ive heard the quality has been dropping for years, but it's got the most buttons, is a decent size and mine have lasted me 7 and 5 years so far (Ive had two models)

Razer Naga. My first one I used for about 11 years almost everyday use. Recently got a new one just to update it. Still a great mouse.

To me nothing comes close to the naga

I’ve used razer naga for so long that I can’t see myself ever using anything else. I love the feel

[this is the best mouse ive ever had](https://www.prohavit.com/products/hv-ms735-mmo-gaming-mouse?_pos=32&_sid=765c30659&_ss=r) and i only dont have it anymore because i broke it. was very much a me problem. however while this mouse may be hard to find and not of a ton of help. ive also ran through 4 razer nagas ALL with the exact same issue. the laser just dies in them. and razer synapse is a certified virus. the only thing razer makes i would ever possibly consider buying again are the keyboards but they dont even make the deathstalker anymore which imo was the single greatest keyboard of an era. TLDR: just dont buy razer its not worth the headaches or cost.

I got the Razer Naga, the one you can swap the side buttons, can have 2, 6 or 12 if you need them.

There's not that many that exist, your options for ones you can reasonably find are: * Razer naga * Corsair scimitar * Steelseries aerox 9 * Red dragon m908 All of these are mediocre mice with large QC issues and whether or not you get one that lasts 5 months or 5 years is complete RNG. You're going to have a bunch of people pop up and say things like "I've used the X for Y years and its the best!" and its some bullshit, they won the lottery that their mouse didn't arrive defective or shit the bed after some short amount of time. There used to be the logitech g600 which was both cheaper than 3 of those 4 mice while also being just as good if not better quality... not by much though... but they discontinued it. You can find them used but they're mostly overpriced and yknow.. used mice are pretty gross. They all have minor differences, pick whichever one suits you at whatever price point you're ok with paying every year or two and pull the trigger. The razer and steelseries are the most overpriced, the scimitar isn't as bad price wise, the red dragon can be bought right now on sale for 22$ and is normally like 32$. Red dragons a budget brand though so don't expect the world.

Razer Naga, cheap, effective, a whole numpad on the side. I've had many other brands I always return to the naga

I have to wonder what people do to their electronics because I've bought 3 nagas and only one of those failed due to my own fuck up when I accidentally tripped on it and broke the USB. The other two we have had for 13 years and 5 years. They still work perfectly despite the ridiculous amount of hours put on them.

I've used the Razer Naga since 2014. Once you train yourself to find all the side buttons without looking, it's pretty great. I've used it across MMO's, shooters... it even comes in handy for excel spreadsheets and stuff. I had something like the Tatarus back in the day (I think it was the orbweaver), and I did like it, but it wasn't a game changer. It crapped out after a few years, and I never bothered replacing it. So my vote is gaming mouse for sure, if you're only getting one.

Switched to the scimitar away from the naga for the same reason as you, and also thought it felt wierd at the start. But (at least for me) its only at the beginning, prefer the feel of the scimitar now over the naga by a lot.

Damn I've used Naga for over a decade and never had a mouse wheel die. What do you do to that thing lol

Razer Naga, because my mmorpg keybinds are unnecessarily complicated and I like it that way.

Mouse is a personal preference. Check out r/MouseReview and do your research. For example I used Razer Naga for mmorpgs for ages, but I strated playing FPS with my Wooting and wanted a more FPS friendly gaming mouse ... I quickly realised that the most popular ones are ABSOLUTELY TINY. I don't even have giant hands, I have 19,5-10,5 hands. For example I bought the VXE R1 PRO which is one of the more popular ones thanks to the price and quality, but I had to send it back, because I couldnt even reach the side buttons with how small it was. Did some more research, at least I had a reference point to look through elo shapes here: [https://www.eloshapes.com/mouse/database](https://www.eloshapes.com/mouse/database) , so I just went through all mice with a reference for that VXE and Naga. Now I knew what I wanted: Mice as big as the Razer Naga, but lighter and with a hump in the back. I sorted them by size and ended up at Pulsar X3 that came out at the end of the year and I couldn't be happier. That was my journey of finding perfect mouse. I still use my Naga for mmorpgs and I switch to the Pulsar for every other game.

Went from Naga to Aerox 9 because of very poor quality of the Naga. Turned out Aerox 9 was as bad. Expensive trash that didn’t hold for long and I’m very careful with my stuff.

I have only ever used naga's I have had like 3 of them during the last 14 years. 

If the Naga ever discontinues I’m cooked

Razer Naga is the jam.

I've used naga since literally the month they released in NA but have recently switched to a Swift point Z2. It has less side buttons but more buttons otherwise to basically break even with the naga and is a lot more comfortable for me over a long session. Note, I have pretty small hands for a man. So take that in account.

Agreed. Went from RAZR Nagas (3 total over years) Corsair Scimitar. Have been happy since.

Razer naga

Depends on how you want it to feel. Razer Naga and corsair scimitar felts very delicate to me. I actually prefer a redragon impact

Razer Naga Feels the best Imo but they do not last forever.

I use a Naga on my MacBook. I had to install some MacOS software to be able to use all the keybindings (Like Shift+1 to work on the mouse), but otherwise works flawlessly. The program is called “Karabiner - Elements”

Been using it for a few years and they haven’t hacked my bank account yet.

I’ll echo the Razer Naga if you have bigger hands. It’s a little bulky for me but I absolutely love it. Have used one since like 2016 and I can’t play any game without it even non MMOs. If you’re okay with wireless walmart sells a cheaper version for like $100 ish. Check around I got mine on sale for $50

I got a razed naga recently and I’m happy with it, mainly because it’s hard to find a g600 these days

I’m have to replace my naga every 2 years, they’re great, but kind of problematic, first one was a laser issue, second was laser issues as well, third lost its left click

I’ve used and loved the naga’s, Logitech, currently on the Corsair scimitar. They have all worn down on me and had to be replaced after 2-3 years. The one I’ll probably never get again is a Logitech though. I’m at about 2 years on the scimitar and have not had an issue yet

G600 and Razer Naga are the best by far. I preferred my G600, but I really like the Naga as well.

I used the Corsair for a couple years. I am using the Razer now. I really lied the ability to reposition the button pad on the Corsair. I have fairly large hands, so sliding that bit forward was comfy. Like many people, I ran into issues with the scroll wheel. Read online that a little lubrication would fix it, and it did. Temporarily. I would regularly have to open the thing and dab a bit more oil in there. Eventually, it didn't quite go back together right, and the right click started to fail. Additionally, I liked the iCue software, once I had it figured out. I would actually program in some macros to help with crafting. I went for the Naga next. It has been fine. I struggle a bit to hit the back three buttons on the fixed pad. There's also no real tactile difference between them, so it is often a matter of "Thumb forward, confirm first column, move back to desired column, press button." I'm used to it, though, so it does not slow me down. I have one more... odd complaint. I play from a recliner. The arm of the recliner is my mouse area. Movement is absolutely fine, but the pads have so little friction that the thing will slide off of my chair the moment I remove my hand. So if I am not raiding, or otherwise doing normal computer things, I have a wired Deathadder at hand. There is not enough play in the wire for it to fall off. You will probably never again hear someone complain about mouse movement being *too smooth*, but here we are.

I've bought the trinity and the Pro. Then I bought the Mac Daddy version of the g502, which i think I've used... twice? I still use the 6 button layout from my trinity, it's great for shit like Tarkov and Warframe. Only thing I wish it had is the only reason I bought the G502, the unlockable scroll wheel. For whatever reason the Naga's are way more comfortable for me than any other mice I've tried with as close of a match of function I've found. Would love to have a backup mouse as it's Razer and they will eventually kill the line just bc, but that seems like a pipe dream

If you go with a razer keep the box cause you will need to rma it around the 2 year mark. How do I know this. I have had 3 Naga's from the first to the epic. All died within 2 years. All suffering from switches broken or scroll wheel issues. Went to the scimitar 4 years ago and it still works. Razer's build quality is bad.

After 7-ish, double clicking Nagas, I recommend Aerox 9. The Aerox, being much lighter, is also a bonus.

I really like the Razor Naga. A lot of people will tell you they’re trash, and maybe in their experience they are correct. But I haven’t had any issues over the years.

+1, my Naga just seems to last forever. Can't say the same for razer keyboards but their mice seem to be robust

I've got a razer naga that I've used since like 2010 that's still going very strong. Wife bought me a basilisk recently but i think I'm going to return it for the new wireless naga. It feels so much better in my hand. The basilisk feels so narrow and after a while it tends to cramp my hand.

i agree wholeheartedly. only wish the naga on its own was lighter

I bought this one but I honestly hate it.  too slippery. Just ordered an Asus Spatha... very let down with Razer lately. Think I still have my original Naga working in the basement though...

I've considered it, but I've been playing with this mouse for years.

It's the Razer Naga

I’ve been using Razer Nagas since ~2012 (gone through three of them now, I think), but next time I need a new one, I’ll probably go for the Corsair Scimitar. The side panel’s a little nicer compared to the Naga (adjustable position, and the 2nd and 4th rows of buttons are textured, so it’s a little easier to tell which are which).

ah the razer naga. an elegant mouse for a civilized age.

I jumped from naga to scimitar years ago, zero regrets.

Obviously hand size is different for everyone, but like many others have said, the G600 is pretty damn nice and comfy. I also like the Razer Naga and am currently using the Steelseries WoW mouse and love it. Those 3 are about it for me as far as "MMO" mice are concerned ;D Good luck!

Personal preference is razer naga series but I’ve also use the corsair scimitar I like both

Steelseries Aerox 9. 12 side buttons, and unlike basically every other mouse made for MMO games, it does not feel like a brick weight wise, so if you have long gaming sessions, your wrist will thank you. It's like 89g compared to the Logitech G600, which is a common recommendation that is 133g. Or the Razer Naga that is 122g and Corsair Scimitar, which is also about 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.

Ultimately it comes down to preference. I personally like the Razer Naga, the way it feels in my hand feels natural and I’m used to it. I tried the Corsair Scimitar for an expansion and while it was good it was just too heavy a mouse for me. I’ve heard good things about the Logitech mmo mouse but I have not used it so can’t talk on that one. Everyone is different and you’ll have to find what works for you.

ive had my naga for 5 years and have had zero issues

This ^ yea you can still get it. I’ve had my wired one for about 7 years now and I bought a wireless one for my laptop. The face plates change between a 12 button, 6 button, and 2 side button configuration.

I always default to razer ornata and razer naga for my go to. 12 buttons on my mouse is just damn good for the games i play. Ornata just because it matches the razer aesthetic and is not 300 bucks

Corsair schimi or Razer naga is the way

I've owned both the Razer Naga and the Corsair Scimitar, both of which I can recommend wholeheartedly. If you own a keyboard from either brand , it's a no-brainer since you link your lights and shit. They're great purchases that'll change your game. With that said, if you can, go to your local PC store and try them out. The feel is different and you might find that some other brand suits you better. Just make sure you've got a good amount of accessible side buttons.

i’ve been using MMO mice for shooters for years now, the one i have at the moment is the corsair scimitar but the razer naga is good too

I've had a Naga and then two G600s. G600 is brilliant, couldn't ask for more really. Naga worked fine but broke after a couple of years.  Think the G600 has sadly been discontinued however it looks like some 3rd party sites still sell them. Not sure if those are fakes or old stock, or what. 

Razer Naga, always. :D

A one handed keyboard.. like a [Tartarus?](https://www.razer.com/gaming-keypads/razer-tartarus-pro?srsltid=AfmBOoqNdVujMwEPZOxooz1BYLCaEq3CDoufW3WzuopY7rYia43pkbAC) IMO you would get more value out of an MMO mouse rather than a one handed keyboard like that one. Unless you've got some disability, I think your normal laptop keyboard will work just fine. I personally have been using a razer naga for 15 years now, it's a total game changer for MMOs.

Bought a razer naga to play a hunter in wow, learned you CAN actually have TOO many buttons. Took some pliers and actually snapped off 7_12 because I kept misclicking, so hard to differentiate between rows. Pressing stuff with your thumb @ 90deg is proper annoying. If they ever discontinue the g502x ima buy 10 🤗

the razer naga is amazing. they even have a left handed mouse for us lefties. I remember when the first left handed naga was released and sale prices rose to 200-300 because they had been discontinued before re-release

I’ve been using the Razer naga for over a decade now and will never use another mouse

Razer Naga ! Mine lasted for 10 years before partially giving up

For mouse, Razer Naga. I do 3 3x4 grids, bound to 1-9 and left, center and right scroll wheel for bottom row. One grid with no modifiers. One for shift and one for alt. Q and E are my strafing buttons. I use a Razer Tarturus instead of a keyboard, And that is a whole different ballgame at that point. So damn comfortable.

Razer Naga is the best. I've used like 10 different MMO mice and the Razer Naga is just the best one. Brands MMO mouse I have used had terrible software problems. Although the Naga isn't totally perfect either. But its the best imo. Edit: Logitech G600 was trash. Kept having weird mouse issues where the mouse would bounce around. Happened with 2 different ones years apart. Honestly the worst MMO mouse I used. Also the ergonomics on it were the worst as well. Razer Naga Molten was good but the mouse button wore out within 6 months and I needed to open it up and hot glue the clicker to keep it working. Roccat Nyth was good and probably the longest lasting mouse I had. It started falling apart the mouse of any mouse I owned and was by far the most fragile feeling. Contradictory but thats how it was. Corsairs MMO mouse sucked ass. Kept having weird software problems. Razer Naga X wired so far is the best MMO mouse I've used. Had it 2 years now about and the biggest problem I have had was this weird problem where scrolling up/down would bounce around weirdly. But blowing air into it would fix it. It hasn't had that problem for a really long time though now. I've used more but I cant remember them off the top of my head. I used to have a literal pile of them in a box somewhere but I threw it away a few months ago. TL;DR though the MMO mouse scene is a bunch of garbage but the Razer Naga X is the least Garbage one I have used.

My naga lasted 5 years without issue and this one has gone for 2 now. Thats wild. But I had a Red Dragon Predition for about 6 years back in the day and though it was a bit small, it was reliable.

I have 6 scimitars and they are all shit compared to my one naga :/

I had a g600 die within a year on me, I have a razer Naga now that's like 6 years old and going strong. Maybe I just got a bad one but that's my experience. I also haven't had a g600 in about 7 years lmao maybe new ones are better?

Been hooked on Naga since the original release so I'm pleased to see 3 of em up there 🤘🏾

Razer Naga or Corsair Scimitar? I prefer the Naga because you can change from the 12 thumbs to 6 or 2

That's awesome. I only ever used a Razer Naga when playing Star Wars Galaxies. Wishing you all the best in your continued recovery.

No worries that explain a lot. I'd just practice on aiming then and movements with keyboard. Stick to basics then go to macros etc. If you don't get much better on M+K or feel like you're just better on controller, maybe it isn't for you. Lots of players do well on controller, even pros. If any case you need a mouse with more buttons there are some out there but those are usually an old design like the Logitech G503, Naga or other MMO/all in one mice. They won't be the best for aiming compared to modern mice these days but yeah something to note. Personally I'd just try and get better with what you have but there's no harm in testing out other mice, I guess. Good luck and happy gaming.

Naga is too many small buttons for my fat greasy fingers. This should probably follow the thread already about it, but Logitech G600 series. 6 buttons is more than enough when you throw in shift/alt/ctrl modifiers. Death Grip on the button, shift+button grips mouse over, alt+button grips focus target. One macro, one button, dynamic application of your skills.

Back i. The day when this mouse forst came out and I was playing WoW I had 36 skills tied to this fucker as a priest and could play one handed. I'd be playing fetch with my dog while raid healing, it definitely confused the fuck out of a lot of people. I've been using the Naga ever since. On my 3rd one now!

i use one of those ergonomic vertical grip mice for workload, and have my gaming mouse on it's dock right next to it. for a bit i had a naga that i had bound to macros, but realistically i think the biggest productivity / ergonomic boost you can get is with an ergo-mouse. first off, 8k polling rate is more of a gimmick than anything else, and what you need in a high-speed high-end gaming mouse is completely different from anything considered productivity. consider keyboards, where a top of the line HE 60% wooting with clicky switches would be next to useless in a heavy workload setting, but my huge ergonomic logitech with an entire row of function keys and switches and doodads would not be at all useful in a competitive game setting. i think once you actually start going for high end peripherals, the use-case defines the product. just like you wouldn't wear a dress watch when going scuba-diving and you wouldn't wear your gshock to a wedding.

Both nagas I had developed the dreaded double click issue after around 2 years of use. No complaint about my scimitar yet apart from the mediocre software.

Not really. Swappable panels is excellent idea though. Especially when well-implemented like on Razer Naga.

I still have the razer naga I bought like 10 years ago. Works great and feels good to hold.

Razer Naga has been my go-to for years.

I have a naga I bough years ago, only problem i have is the number 4 key isn't registering, I have to press the button hard to for it register, I love using that mouse I play mostly rpg games and mmo.

Yeah, I’ve used the Naga since it came out.

Have a naga for 5 Years and it’s still perfect :)

The reddragon feels like shit. So does the corsair. The razor naga is the best

This 100%. The Naga feels like it'll break in my hand, and my tiny gamer wife literally broke one by accident after a particularly frustrating wipe. We both use Corsair scimitars now, recommend them to friends, and have never had to buy replacements. The iCue software it requires is the worst thing installed on my computer, an aberrant resource hog that barely functions. It's worth it for a reliable mouse that feels good in my hand, though.

its because they havent released a new naga yet and I highly doubt they will

I have this issue with my razer naga where the mouse freezes or stops working for a second. Makes it really annoying when healing and moving with my mouse. I can’t seem to find a fix for it anywhere. Other than that I love it though.

Naga has too many buttons for me and they were too small for me to consistently hit the one I meant to. I prefer the G604 as I think the 6 buttons were a happy medium. When I was big into ESO, I only had 2 side buttons and I only used one for weapon swaps.

Maybe check out the Turtle Beach Kone XP Air or the Steelseries Aerox 5 although, some of its buttons are hard to reach and also weird material choice of slippery glossy buttons with a flick up and down button some people love it but I hate it. I ended up settling with the Kone I also use the naga but its heavy and wanted something a bit lighter.

I've had quite a few Razer Nagas and a Logitech G600. They all ended up dying after a year or 2 where the left click becomes unreliable. (doesn't hold, doesn't always register, etc) I've decided to just buy cheap Redragon mice now since at least I'm not out $80 bucks when the thing fails. Currently using a Redragon M908 without issue. If Logitech or Razer want to start putting reliable switches in their mice, I would gladly move back to them.

I like the thought of it. I use my naga mouse currently for work and gaming. The click would make that more sustainable and comfortable over time.

As a leftie I can recommend the Razer Naga too. Doesn't help that most MMO mouses (or mouses in general really when not ambidextrous) are made with right-handed people in mind, so the choice is pretty limited lol.

The caveat with Razer is that rebinding mouse buttons does not work in Linux. While the defaults work for me (I have a deathadder and a naga, and the side buttons on both are mapped to number keys), someone with a more specialized use case will need access to Windows to set up the mouse. OpenRazer only allows you to adjust the lighting and sensitivity IIRC.

I only had one, Razer Naga, the old one... Amazing.... 5 years to broke

I’ve used a naga, aerox 9, and schimitar. It’s a toss up between the naga and aerox for me. I think I like the ergonomics of the aerox a little better and I find the larger buttons easier to navigate. I didn’t like the schimitar and it broke within 6 months. I also thought the software was the most cumbersome. 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.

Can confirm - unfortunately. I'm on like my 5th Naga I think? They usually last me around 2-3 years. I really want to switch, but the Corsair just wasn't price competitive last time I needed one and the G600 is discontinued.

I would rather use my naga with broken switches than use icue.

It is a mouse that is usually bigger in size because.it has programmable buttons on the thumb area, like Razer Naga let's say or Redragon Aatrox etc or Corsair Scimitar

Yea I don’t think that’s it considering I fit the same profile and my naga has lasted……longer than I can remember? Honestly I think you got unlucky and Naga is still the best bet. I found no evidence that the scroll wheels go bad. Also, learning to control that death grip is part of getting better at games lol

I’ve used a razer naga for so many years. It’s my favorite.

same. i dont even know how many i've had now. been using them since somewhere around 2013.

Does the mouse wheel tilt to scroll? I tried the Scimitar, but I missed that feature from my Naga

I've been using the Razer Naga trinity, and before that the Naga pro and before that the Naga. With 12 buttons you can bind you can fill one bar and control everything from your mouse. Up that to 2 bars using shift+12 buttons. In games like guild wars 2 you can use shift+1, 2, 3 etc to swap bars and use 1-12 to use abilities. It's been so much easier than reaching up to hit a key.

Hell yes thats true. When i was in my teens i used to only buy Razer gear. As ive grown older i realized im wasting money having to buy a new "gaming mouse" every year cause their shit breaks constantly. I got pissed once and bought a 30$ logitech mouse at walmart after another one of my Razer mice broke, i think the Naga, and it lasted me 3 years and i only replaced it cause it had a wire. Razer is the Apple of gaming.

I had the Razer Naga with 12 side buttons for many years. It was great until eventually it wasn’t possible to fix the double click anymore. For a couple of years after I had a cheap copy of it, which was okay but not quite as good. It did the job. Currently I’m using a G502 X, because I don’t play much and it was half the price of a Naga Pro. It’s a great mouse, but I do still miss the 12 side buttons and how simple it was to use.

I've been using the Razor Naga for nearly a decade. Same one. Things a beast. Edit: This isn't a normal decade. I took it with my on 7 TDYs and 2 deployments. It's seen some shit.

Naga is definitely best. I've had 2 over 10 years. Only issue I've ever had is my dog eating it.

Used a Razer Naga until I found the Logitech G600, but that’s discontinued. So when my Logitech dies I’ll probably get the razer naga again, I just got the Logitech one because it was cheaper than the naga.

I love my razer naga faster for me then reaching off my movement keys to use shit

Been using the naga for nearly a decade now. Big ups.

People hate on the Naga for whatever reason, but I love mine. I've used it pretty heavily for about 4 years without any issues. I bought a Corsair Scimitar as a backup and it also works really well. Both offer basically the same package; 12 side buttons and the normal mouse stuff. The Razor and Corsair software are pretty similar too. Only real difference is the Naga feels a little longer and more flat in the hand vs the scimitar being a bit more tall and round.

I didn't see any comments mentioning it, but I have to give a MAJOR recommendation for the SteelSeries Aerox 9. I bought mine in early 2022 and it has been my go to mouse for everything. Light, wireless, good battery, good side button layout (for my big hands at least), its easily my favorite MMO mouse (Have also had 2 G600s, a Scimitar, and a Naga) and probably my favorite mouse period.

I loved my Logitech g600 but since they discontinued I use Razer Naga because of mouse button 4 and 5. I love to use mouse button 4 or 5 for my Opie key bind. I wonder if any other mouse has mouse button 4 and 5?

It is hit or miss, I have been using a razer naga for probably 15 years now, but I have had lots of them and lots of problems. It has been feeling like the new ones last less and less, but whenever the one im currently using breaks im buying a new one.

Can't really beat the Naga, anything else will have less buttons, and aren't much more reliable.

I started using the razor naga about a decade ago and I’m full-on dependent.

I’m on my third one. If they ever discontinue that line, I’ll be so sad.

Top 3 MMO mice I've owned: * Corsair Scimitar * Logitech G600 (discontinued, but closest in shape is UtechSmart Venus and Redragon MMO series) * Razer Naga It comes down to comfort at the end of the day for those long MMO gaming sessions, so I would suggest going in-store and trying out the shapes. Both Scimitar and Naga have wireless variants. Scimitar's side buttons are mushier and have some movement, but this actually helps me lift the mouse without misclicking the side buttons. You can also move the side button panel on the Scimitar to match your hand size and comfort (its biggest selling point). Naga's side buttons feel the best - very snappy, but its shape causes me to misclick at times. If you want to play FPS games with your MMO mouse, I would buy the Scimitar as they release each iteration with the best sensor in the market for that given point in time. Naga's sensor is ok; my Naga Pro jitters when fast swiping/flicks. G600 has the oldest sensor (and is laser).

I had a razer Naga for about 4 years and it was good, razer software felt nice enough to use but the mouse itself was a little on the smaller side especially the buttons. I've had a Corsair scimitar for maybe 6 years now and I love it. Icue software can be great or shit depending on the update but on the whole it's good. Feels really nice to use and can't see myself changing to anything else anytime soon

Left handed Razer Naga here that works perfectly apart from the number 6 is intermittent. Which is a cleaning issue as it frees up whenever I clean it briefly, I just need to take the time to clean the buttons properly. Still lasted me five years, already ordered a spare one.

I actually couldn;t agree more. When my old old naga finally gave out several years ago, I managed to go through 3 new razer mice in a single year. i will never buy a razer product again. In other news, I switched to Dream Machines, and i'm immensely happy with them.

To the people with nagas where the scroll starts skipping or scrolls back the other way, just take a straw and blow into where the scrollwheel sits while scrolling or use canned air. It’s very sensitive to dust.

I switched to this after my second naga broke in 2 years, and haven't looked back. Great mouse. 

I use a Naga that I’ve had for many years. I’ve been curious about a Corsair Scimitar though.

I would say razor Naga if they didn't just stop working after 3 months automatically. Really liked the ability to have 12 side number buttons for mmos

Wireless Corsair Scimitar is the best, just above the wired version - having used a Naga and a G600 in the past. All of them are solid, though.

Hey there! I used to use a Naga mmo mouse, but after it broke i felt like spending less money on something I wouldn’t mind replacing every so often. Since then I’ve been in love with the [Logitech G600](https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/products/gaming-mice/g600-mmo-gaming-mouse.910-002864.html). The “g shift” third button on the side is my favorite because you can have it set to ctrl so you have your regular hotkeys plus ctrl+your regular hotkeys if that makes sense. It might be discontinued though so I might have to start looking for a new one for when this one bites the dust…

The day I got my naga my warlock was so much easier to play lol. 1-12 and shift/control modifiers. Even had health stones and soul stones bound. The only stuff not on my mouse was mount and bandages. I could never go back to a regular mouse.

I like the buttons but I've always had a problem with razer's quality. Their stuff tends to start breaking down after a year

Having 12 buttons on a mouse is so much more convenient

The razer naga is such a good mouse design with such terrible quality

Bro I used to love this mouse, my favorite shape of all time, unfortunately the newer models are bad for my grip style. I now use the steel series Aerox 3 which is pretty much the shape as the steel series rival 3, a cheaper alternative. I like how my palm feels resting on these mice, but I tend to use more of a claw grip. If you like using a palm grip the Logitech g502 would be good, it has a button in a similar spot as the sniper button and you can make bind it to do the same thing as the sniper button with the Logitech software. Edit: I’ll be honest man I’ve been looking for a mouse like this one forever. I don’t think you’ll be able to find a shape quite like it, I haven’t been able to. The only thing I liked almost as much was the razer naga.

Same here unfortunately. I've tried a lot of other MMO mice over the years. None have as good a thumb button pattern/sizing. 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.

Naga. I'm not a fan of razor in general. But no other MMO mouse has better thumb button size/placement. 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. No other mouse fits my thumb that well. 99% of the time I only use the bottom six buttons. The others are just basic things like auto run, sit, walk, etc. That makes for 8 buttons that I can press instantly with just my left thumb. Lots of quick reaction buttons there. 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. In WoW I double bind 5 and r to the same spell, same for 6 and f. 789 -shift= are on my thumb button. And 0 is moved to ' (left of 1). This gives me ready, instant access to the entire hotbar. And with shift, an entire second hotbar (excepting shift+7 and shift+9). Then a few non-reactionary spells like buffs, hearthstone, toys, etc can go wherever. These can go on a bar that is vertical against my party frames (I play healers). So it's real easy to cast them on friends when needed. But these are also bound to F# keys as well so multiple casts can be done quickly with mouse over macros while moving forward (but not jumping/strafing etc). 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. It's been a couple expansions since I played, so I'm just assuming the button bloat hasn't gotten too bad since.

Best one I've had, shame it's out of production now and only available on eBay for ridiculous prices. Can recommend the Steel series Aerox 9 now tho, it's a bigger mouse and I can play with my palm resting on it unlike the Naga I had before.

Im using naga for years but they break very easily for me. I ve replaced 2 since ~2013. Im on my 3rd

Razer Naga, the way Swifty inteded

Yeah me too Naga on the right Tartarus on the left keyboard and headset all Razer

I'm curious in what position you put your hand to make those left 2 columns reachable. At best I can reach the rightmost 2 columns, and I'd probably have to completely relearn how to use a mouse to use the first two... but I do admit that having a dedicated dodge button that doesn't require double tapping or contorting my thumb to the alt key has become a core part of all games that I play. I just wish that games would be more consistent about allowing the binding of mouse-4 and mouse-5, because I got like 3 different profiles on my Razer Naga because some don't allow me to use shift, some don't allow me to use mouse-4 and mouse-5, and some don't allow me to use function keys...

I've been using a razer naga for probably 2 & 1/2 years and it's held up well, although one of the buttons recently started acting up.

I've used it VERY heavily for most of the time that I've had it, so I'd say it's pretty good for it to only now start having any kind of issue, and its still very usable. I plan to get a new one soon when I have the extra money. (the wireless version this time, I can't stand the wire with dual monitor setup)

I second this. I had 2 Razer naga stop working within a year each. I tried the scimitar for a similar button layout and it has been great. It's more reliable and feels better. The ICue software was weird at first but I'm used to it now and like the flexibility

This is why I initially bought a naga. Dont even play wow anymore but I still hotkey stuff for other games. Being able to move with WASD and use all of your skills without letting go of a direction helps pretty much universally.

Logitech g504 hero has been my go-to budget mouse for anwhile Short of that the razer naga is great.

It's a hit or miss with the naga for me, my last two nagas all failed because of the left mouse click. I got myself a naga pro, and have recently swapped from the 12 to the 2 button panel to try it out, works like w charm too. However, the pro also comes with the issues for the side panel, including that sometimes the buttonpresses won't register. Quick fix is to just take them off and put them on again

Razer Naga

had a corsair scimitar elite, which developed a scroll fault where it was randomly scrolling uncontrollably after 2 years use, cleaned it all out internally and it still persisted after stopping it for a short while, switched to a second hand Naga then from CeX in the UK and it worked a lot better for longer for me, though your mileage may vary :) I preferred the Naga to the scimitar

I like the razer Naga. It has 12 programmable buttons on the thumb side. Makes doing a rotation, moving looking, and doing dungeon mechanics much easier IMO.

Just don't get the razer low ass quality shit. The redragon mmo mouse is literally more durable for one third of the price.

2 Nagas broke within months for me and the internet is FULL of other people having the exact same complaints, its overpriced crap. The redragon is working flawlessly for me for almost 3 years now and costs a fraction of the Naga.

Had my naga for eight years now. No issues.

I did a bit of mouse experimenting around when I first started and ended up sticking with the Naga. The Naga along with Synapse has the easiest configuration with the best feeling mouse in my opinion. I wasn't able to remap keys on my mouse to Shift+1 thru Shift+= like I could on the Naga than when I tried out the G600 and Scimitar. I also appreciate the click sensitivity and the modular scroll wheel. The G600 has that 3rd click button, that I just couldn't get used to. The side buttons are kinda mushy and require more pressure to push in. It became an issue trying to press side buttons and not accidentally pressing that 3rd mouse click. The software is utter garbage. The Scimitar has the ability to slide the side buttons up and down to your feel, while have an extremely good design. Even better than the Naga. However, the left and right click are extremely sensitive. The software isn't the best, and due to not being able to map the side buttons the way I wanted to without issues, the mouse that would have been my choice got 2nd place to the Naga. Overall, I recommend the Naga, then the Scimitar. And this is also coming from someone who wanted to do away with all of their razer products.

I've prolonged the use of my Naga by blowing into the wheel, like you would a game cartridge back in the day. I need to do this every couple of days, takes.seconds and it's good as new.

When I scroll down there is a bit of a stutter or it looks like it's 'slipping' on a web page. I had it with an older Naga model as well.

The first Naga it happened to got so bad that the scroll wheel was barely moving my page down and that was when I decided to replace it. When it comes to replacing this one, I'm going to get a Corsair Scimitar. I always hear good things about them.

Razor products are super cheaply made and break all the time. I went through 3 Nagas before I switched to the Corsair Symitar and its lasted me 4 times as long as any of the Nagas I had

Razer Naga Logitech G600

As much as people hate Razr, their Naga has lasted me YEARS and it finally died and I got a newer one and its also still going strong after years. I cant play MMO's without the number buttons on the side.

Laptop with a Razer Naga.

Razer Naga has never done me wrong

I used the Naga for years, but they broke so damn fast and the price tag was a bit much for me. So I switched to the Logitech G600 and while it worked great, it had so many issues not remembering its settings. So I would have to open the software to sync it back up. Very annoying. Now I’m using the Corsair and I love it. I haven’t had to install any stupid software. It worked straight out of the box. So far no complaints! I just miss the 3rd button that the Logitech had :(

Been using Razer Naga for years. 12 buttons. So between regular pressing, shift, and alt thats 36 keybinds. Other mmo mouses have 12 buttons as well but its always personal preference

I stopped using the Naga. The prices are just not okay for the quality.

i've been using a utech venus (though it appears to be redbranded to utech red dragon) mmo mouse for 6 years and it's legit the best mouse I've owned, I've a logitech g600, cable went in 2 years, a corsair sabre, right click died in 6 months, razer naga, middle mouse started playing up before the cable went. Yet, this cheap, shitty (build quality) wise, mmo mouse has survived 3+ years now? The side buttons are ridged nicely, the settings and left click button are useful My main critique is the achaic software it uses , looking straight out of 2004 but other than that, for 30 quid, worth a shot

I to use the three grid style with my Naga, I absolutely love it and think it keeps the ui looking clean.

My go to has always been razer naga for the past 20 years. I think I’ve had a total of 3 of them so they last an average of about 7 years for me. I know some of my friends have had a couple fail within a couple of years and swap to the Logitech.

keep you're receipt handy, im on my 3rd naga now because it keeps breaking after 2 years..

When I used an mmo mouse I used a Razer Naga. Now when I play WoW I just adjusted my keybinds and use my Lamzu.

I have an older razer naga. 12 buttons on the side and I friggin love it. I’m not good at swiping all over the keyboard to hit keys so I use all 12 of them. It’s great.

Razer naga ftw.

Google it. Its a common issue in Nagas. I had the same thing happen to me for who knows what reason, somewhere in the 6-12 month time frame. My middle mouse button can rarely be held as it usually spams the button and scrolling sometimes gives additional inputs or does that kind of "rubberband" inputs where it'll do the opposite input after scrolling. No rough handling at all.

This has been my issue as well. My current one I'm using, the scroll wheel is acting up. This is my second one. That being said, I still prefer it to the razer naga. Those things broke so fast in my experience.

Biggest misconception about the G502 is that it's made for large hands. While it works for some; myself included cannot use it. It's too damn narrow at the grip. My buddy with slightly smaller hands performs extremely well with it. If you fancy spending a little $$$ for a long term mouse, I recommend the Zowie EC line. Ergo shape, very large, around 70-80g, no extra software needed. I myself searched all over for a good mouse that fit my hand, went through about 40 different mice, and ended up on the "Zowie EC1-CW". I wanted large, not 100g, wireless, don't care for RGB, and more modern performance (negligible), and no additional programs needed to change mouse settings. Another few mice I enjoyed (though heavy) was the Razer Naga, Corsair M65, and (not heavy) G Pro Wireless / Superlight, and Glorious Model D. My hands are 8.25 x 4.5 (If I remember correctly). And I can totally palm the EC1-CW comfortably. It's literally a perfect fit for my hand. They also have different sizes of the same mouse. Also take grip style into account. I'm more a hybrid of Palm/claw. Width was the biggest killer for most mice from my experience. Anything under 63mm grip area width gave me cramps in my hand

Razer naga and it’s not even close

I have been using my razer naga ever since swifty promoted them back in wrath

Razer Naga, Corsair Scimitar are my favorite!

Razer Naga for me, though I will say it is way too easy on some gaming mouses to hit the wrong button or smack it completely unintentionally. Not awful if you just do story quests and dungeons, can get annoying if you're healing an intensive raid. I would go to the electronic store nearby and try out a bunch - everybody's hand size is different, and if you're someone with smaller hands or left-handed, you might hate a mouse everyone else loves.

I’ve replaced 5 nagas in the past 10 years

I've used the Razer Naga and the Corsair Scimitar. TL;DR- Scimitar had more weight & felt better but the mouse wheel broke consistently. The Naga feels lighter/cheaper but I have yet to have issues with it. The Naga is lighter and I dislike that more, but I haven't had any issues with it. The Corsair Scimitar had more...heft, and felt better to me, but the mouse wheel broke every time after using it the same amount as the Naga. I had the Scimitar replaced twice within Corsair's normal warranty on it and that was always the issue. Still loved the shit out of the Scimitar but swapped to Naga because of that to test it.

Literally same. Replaced 2 times because of scroll wheel in their warranty (so no cost to me but still). I fucking love that mouse though, but it made me switch to the Razer Naga to see how it is. No scroll wheel issues with same amount of use, but I dislike the feeling of it in comparison.

I don't have the V2, but I've been using the Naga for over 2 years now and it's the best investment I've ever made for this game, hands down. No issues with buttons wearing even when I was spending about 4 hours a week raiding, the software runs smoothly and doesn't bog down my performance any. Would highly recommend, if not for mice apparently being hyper anecdotal in actual performance from what I've heard lol.

Comfort is 100% a key aspect of improving how you play. I made two investments in that front, first my Razer Tartarus and then a couple years later my Naga, and both of them drastically improved my ability to play the game comfortably by just having all my buttons on hand and not in awkward places to reach. Unfortunately they're a bit on the pricey side to play around with and find the exact one you like best, but au least a minor improvement is an improvement.

I've used a LOT of different mice for wow. Logitech g600 was great, but it's discontinued. Unless you wanna pay 400 for one, then you'll need something else. Razer Naga MMO mouse with 12 buttons was also very good. But also discontinued. I finally settled on the razer v2 hyperspeed. It's identical to their old 12 button MMO mouse except that it's wireless. I'm the kind of person who likes everything wired, but honestly after a while I was sold. Excellent response time, battery life, etc. And I pvp mostly. Some like corsair, etc. But i personally found them sometimes large and clunky. Personal taste. If you don't mind changing batteries once in a while the razer v2 hyper is great.

Naga. Cause I need 36 keybindings

The Naga is amazing. But it is pricey. More than anything - there weren't $40 alternatives available like there is now. So it's really hard to justify any of the more expensive options.

I've had my Razer Naga for over 10 years now and it's still working so no plans to replace it. It's pretty easy to set up and use. 12 extra buttons feels right - I can have one full action bar just be the mouse.

Razor Naga is my Nº1 for sure, i've been using it for a year now and it has so many side buttons it's so good, also think Logite*c*h G600 is one of the best ones (i've been looking for one). Was making my sear*c*h one of these days and found a really *c*ool site *c*alled "Pofari Gaming", [https://pofarigaming.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-mmo-gaming-mouses/](https://pofarigaming.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-mmo-gaming-mouses/) this is the link if someone wants to see their post. Its has really good and updated information, really re*c*ommend!!!

I'm using a razer naga. No complaints.

You absolutely can. The Naga is terrible. Cheap parts, switches in LMB and RMB often break after 6 months, issues with side-button input recognition. Terrible mouse for the price it costs. Scimitar is far better, and the G600 is infinitely times better.

Well my naga has 38 keybinds with modifiers, and I could do more I suppose, compared to your 10. So it’s technically better for keybinds.

Razer naga gang🤟

I’ve used the Razer Naga since the first one and it took *maybe* a couple days to get used to it. Seems weird at first but it’s really not bad if you just use it. Ends up being like typing, the more you do it the better you get at it. I’ve since replaced it with a newer version but it worked great the whole time. Current one I’ve had for years and still works great. It’s a blessing and a curse though because now I won’t even consider playing a MMO without it. With shift and ctrl modifiers I can bind far more skills/abilities/consumables/etc than I would ever actually use. I even use the side buttons for other games, shooters for weapon selections/grenades, ARPGs for skills/consumables/etc. As far as competitors go, sorry I’m not sure. Never had a problem with Razer so never tried anything else.

Razer naga have never steered me wrong.

Naga since 2012 or was it 2011. Try couple of others too, but always return to Naga

Yup, had the exact same experience, 2 Naga's died over the span of a year, got a scimitar and it lasted 3 then got another which has thus far lasted me 4.

Yep, same mouse I have. I swap the plates off depending on what I am doing. I still prefer wired though so I never remove the cord.

Razor naga, Red dragon 913, Corsair scimitar and Logitech g600.

I have had 2 so far moving from Razor Naga's, and it is my preferred mouse even though I don't play MMO's any more, but i'd say it's on par with Naga's. Both have the problem of semi-rapid mouse button wear causing clicking issues, with I think the scimitar being slightly worse for it. Also they have different ergonomics and people would have a preference between the concave-style of the buttons on a scimi compared to the convex-style of naga's

I started with the Naga, had a couple since it was the only option for a while, then went with the G600, which was great but got discontinued, so now on the Steelseries Aerox 9, it's ok but I sometimes missclick, which didn't happen on the other ones, not sure if it's the button placement or the size, but I guess I'd go back to the Naga if I had to remake that choice

Just go with the Naga. A lot of MMO mice have issues with the grid button placement, or being able to differentiate the buttons with just your thumb. The Naga (and G600) didn't have this issue.

I have the Razer Naga, been flawless so far

God Bless. Two Nagas broke the scroll mouse press button twice. Expensive Garbage Since Scimitar Im happy
