EPTI have mine around 50%, not so slow that I feel like I'm dragging the camera through sludge, but not so fast that I skip where I'm trying to get to in the heat of battle.
Does the mouse scroll speed influence your micro? - Page 4

I don't see why scrolling seems to be one of those 'don't do' things, for small incremental movements, i.e placing a pylon at the perimeter of your base, it is faster than any other method. I also like to split my army quite far back, with a second wave of templars quite far back, and have got it that I can do this pretty comfortably. I actually love UI/hotkey discussions, it's amazing just how much variation there is and although there are generally accepted norms, there is no consensus on 'the best' setup | ||

Unless of course you are not able to move your screen precisely enough with 100 % ... I'm going to give the 100 % a try, but the jump from 25 % up to 100 % was to big, I'm going for some middle steps ;P | ||

According to Day9, you should never be scrolling anyway, but rather click the mini-map and use location hotkeys. | ||

Then I stopped playing for a pretty long time and now I can't even handle 50% anymore without screwing everything up. | ||

If you can't control the screen at 100% then perhaps your mouse speed it too high, or your mouse accuracy is at fault. I use camera saves for my bases and rally point, so I'm not using scrolling except when controlling a large army, building depots, and microing drops. | ||

But scrolling from your main to your natural is worse than using the mini-map and a location hotkey. However, you could probably equalize time by turning the speed wayyy up. | ||

Mouse sensitivity turned off in sc2, so you get desktop speed. Just uncheck "Enable mouse sensitivity". | ||

not using scroll speed makes you more dependent on hotkeys and minimap which IMO is faster than the highest scroll speed. | ||

I know that this thread is not for discussing about mouse sensitivity but nevertheless I ask this: I have set my mouse DPI as high as possible, 1800, and it is not fast enough. I would like to have at least 2200-2500 DPI if it just was possible with my Logitech mouse. Many people have said that I shouldn't increase mouse speed from Windows settings but how could I then increase the speed? Do I really have to buy a new mouse just because I need a few hundred higher DPI, or is there some other way? | ||
