Stuck using a G1 until someone makes a decent mouse with > 450 dpi (though I'm going to see how the Asian Salmosa goes, but even before it arrives I know it won't be perfect due to angle snapping, and I've heard bad liftoff?) >_> Yeah, it's not good with a QcK. If you switch to a newer cloth pad like a Goliathus Control, it's got basically perfect tracking though. It's also flawless on my 5L. Haven't tried mTw/dkt pad. | ||

I know that Brat_OK plays on that It really just depends on the shape and if you like it for RTS style movements. The MX518 is an excellent mouse though. I preferred it for FPSes though (before it broke.) | ||

I'm also using the old G1 logitech for all games I play, although it's getting very hard to find in France. For me the most important aspect for a mouse is how comfortable I feel while holding it, and the very simple design of the G1 has been the best for me. I believe any recent laser mouse will have enough "precision" especially for an RTS so it is really a matter of personal preference. Over the years I have used several Razor mice (the diamondback most notably) and several microsoft and logitech mice, and even for FPS games (I play with low res 1024*768 at most) I've always prioritized the shape and "feel" when buying a new mouse. I also think that the mousepad is almost as important as the mouse, I'm using a QPAD CT which feels very good for me. | ||

now i switched to razer and im really satisified with my new razer imperator. initially i bought a razer lachesis but didnt like that at all, had to bring it back to the shop. lachesis has a total different feel compared to the intellimouse since its so flat and not ergonomic at all imho. the imperator however is really really sweet and also looks way cooler than the intellimouse... costs almost double what the microsoft model does, but im hoping it will also last longer than the usual 1,5 years my intellimice last me... i dunno about accuracy, but i turned up my mouse speed quite a bit now that im using razer. the main improvement was getting an actual mousepad tho, i used some plastic surface before and it was hard moving the mouse tiny amounts since it would stick to the surface a little, now its all very smooth and my apm increased from 60ish to 80ish | ||

I'm currently using a Logitech G9. The quality is superb, but the ergonomics aren't that good.. | ||

Alot of FPS require you to have a fancy, high precision mouse (measured in Dots per inch) to be somewhat competent. However in Starcraft you can definitely be good w/o a fancy gaming mouse. ANYTHING works. You'll find if you stick with your mouse, it will never actually slow you down, but switching mice will. What I recommend is a macroboard. I use the logitech G13 gameboard which alot of those WoW players use. Its great for grid system key layouts, and you can add group control and shift, ctr, alt and all that good stuff. Yeah like everybody said RTS do not need fancy mice, but a fancy keyboard never hurt everyone here already knows this. the whole point of the thread is to talk about which mice right now have the best sensors that dont skip/jitter/etc and which ones are most comfortable. the latter is subjective of course. | ||

The DA isn't a great ergonomic fit for me, since I use mainly a fingertip grip and I have small hands - if I were to purchase a Razer again, I'd probably get an Abyssus to fit my hand size. If you're looking for a new mouse, just make sure you find one that fits your grip, hand size, and wallet. Brand really doesn't matter too much, as long as you like it. For example, I believe Savior and Bisu used to use the Logitech Mini Optical... | ||

That's actually why I got the QcK in the first place, and it was great with an IME3.0, MX518 and Deathadder. Just not the Abyssus. :| | ||
