Xornet 1 is my favorite mouse of all time (I have two of them). from what I've heard xornet 2 is much worse and not worth the money.
If you can mange to find one, I suggest you stick with xornet 1. There should be a few around in ebay still.
I've had xornet 1 for a few years as well, and it's great indeed!
Atm I'm happy with xornet 2. Apart from some software issues, I haven't had a reason to doubt its performance yet. Both large jump maps and high bpm/low ar maps seem to be fine.
OBS time ZZZ dt fc! Started badly, but still ended above 99% in the end. It's a fun map, and if memory serves, it gives a decent amount of pp for its difficulty.
Changed dpi to 1500, as the pressure on my wrist became a bit much in intense small area patterns. I'm still incredibly slow, both in terms of tap speed and mouse movement. Somehow I did manage to ace the last 35 notes of Underwear (mapped by lolikore), never expected that, lol.

Not with these maps. But when things get very intense (think about high bpm with little sliders), I do.
Stamina is something you can train, and getting better helps relieve much of the tension of playing. For example, when your reading becomes better, the tension in your aim hand becomes less and the amount of concentration needed to play decreases.
sometimes i just forget to breathe while playing maps that are hard in certain ways, other times it's fine but osu can be surprisingly physically stressful
There are two ICDD maps that cookie has come close to 1000pp on, pretty cool maps and songs IMO + Show Spoiler +
both extremely long (~3.4 - 4.5k combo) and moderately high BPM
Different pengrip style and area are starting to click

for reduced wrist stress (still working on that one)
this map is cool for testing because it has a mixture of high velocity streams that go all over (if you adjust grip / lift mouse etc midstream then you'll screw it up) and some pretty fast jumps
using thumb+finger1 partway up pen, finger 2 to rest pentip against
cookiezi and some others rest pentip on finger3 but i've found it very difficult to use
band helps to keep the same place and stop slip
for usage i've just been trying not to squish part of my hand or translate any weight through right wrist because i usually seem to default to pressing it into the desk. More finger movement is good too~
