What mouse should I get?

[Ragnarok]

Well my old mouse was pretty basic and is starting to go to shit, so I'm wondering what you guys would recommend since I'm basically clueless on what to get. Thanks.

Yup, I use the Logitech VX Nano for my desktop. I love it. Batteries last a long time, and the feel and precision are excellent. I originally bought it for my laptop for travel, but it works just as well staying in one place!

If you want a decent gaming mouse minus the hefty price tag, take a look at the Microsoft Sidewinder X5 - I love mine, personally.  The X3 doesn't look bad, either.

I use a logitech G9. If you can get a G5, even better since it's pretty much the same specs at a lower price last time i checked. Both are fantastic though.

Well guys thanks for all your help. After going to the store and testing all the different mice you guys recommended I decided on the G5. Again thanks for all your help.

Ironically enough, my VX Nano has started a double-clicking issue. This keeps me from dragging and dropping anything. I need a new mouse...

Picked up a Logitech G500 today because my old Logitech's scroll wheel broke after two years of hardcore use.

I. Love. This. Mouse.

As a last minute Xmas gift, I got...

Razer Naga MMOG Laser Gaming Mouse
and
Razer Nostromo Gaming Keypad

My plan is to have mastered both devices before SWTOR!

[Broin]

Yeah I've got the Naga and I love it....  Been looking for a new keyboard as well.

My buddy has the Razer Naga MMOG Laser Gaming Mouse and he thinks it's the 'ballerist' thing ever.

The Naga has been working pretty well. I'm concerned about the Nostromo. I'm going to post my review of it on our Gaming Keyboard thread.

[Tbone]

So I've been playing Champions Online, which should have a pretty similar combat layout to TOR, with my Razer Naga. It has REALLY helped me get used to the buttons, and now I don't even think about it. Combat feels so much quicker and more fluid with this mouse.

Like TOR is going to be, you can move while you are fighting. Enemies knock you back, maneuver around you, and retreat, so you need to be able to do the same. With the Naga, my hand never leaves WASD and I never have to look down to make sure I'm hitting the right abilities.

Let's say I'm using a move that has an AOE cone of damage. I can quickly adjust my aim mid-swing to make sure I get the guy on the side. If someone retreats, I can follow without stopping to try and attack. Also, for the first time ever since I've been playing MMOs, I feel that ALT and CTRL 1-9 are viable instead of ridiculously awkward.

So if you plan on playing TOR hardcore, and especially if you are going to be a melee class that will be bouncing around a lot, I HIGHLY recommend picking up this mouse. Get it now and hop in a f2p MMO like Champions to get the feel of it so that you will be trained with it in time for TOR. Do it!

P.S. I tried using the Nostromo a few times and gave up on it. It isn't ideal for anyone who is used to a keyboard.

I need a new mouse and keyboard.  I'll prolly pick up the mouse tbone recommended but what should I get for a keyboard?
