After we already presented you with keyboards, headsets and regular mice, we would like to present you today with special MMO mice that are tailored to the needs posed by modern MMOs to the little critters (as of April 2014).
Do you know Sebastian? Do you have such a guy in your friend circle? Once a year, Sebastian goes skiing and immediately buys a perfect ski equipment for 300 Euros. Then he plays football once and it has to be the right shoes from adidas. In his room lies a devilishly expensive electric guitar, on which he couldn’t even play “All my little ducks” and next he plans to acquire a mountain bike, a set of golf clubs, and a gaming mouse! Sebastian needs it for Solitaire and the latest Facebook games! Pah! Well, the ski equipment, football shoes, electric guitar, mountain bike, and golf clubs, the guy can buy them all he wants.
The mice we introduce are reserved for true gamers. Sure, they won’t turn a mouse-click dyslexic into a Korean e-sports star… but it’s a step in the right direction!
Logitech G700s Wireless Gaming Laser Mouse
The G700 from Logitech has the wonderful characteristic of being wireless: No chance of a cable break and thus a long life. Despite being wireless, it reacts instantly to commands. The Logitech G700 is particularly suitable for shooter games – and what is good for Counterstrike can only be cheap for The Elder Scrolls Online. The Logitech features 13 programmable buttons, is relatively heavy and relatively small (and a charging cable is also included).
Its sensitivity can be adjusted to the player’s needs (100-8200 dpi) and it generally has a sleek and simple appearance.
- For the mouse, the response speed, the grip sensation, the absolutely high-quality workmanship, and the elegant design speak in its favor. The steep price, the weight, and the relatively short battery life might be drawbacks. The thumb buttons are probably not made for eternity.
Conclusion: An excellent mouse for anyone who perceives every cable on their desk as a personal insult and still wants to chase their heroes through dangers at top speed.

Razer Naga Gaming Mouse
Razer has one of the most prominent names among gamers – for whatever marketing reasons. The Naga gaming mouse is also available for left-handers, who naturally have difficulty finding a decent mouse – and it is reportedly even sold by Ned Flanders at the Leftorium. However, this is not confirmed.
As a gaming mouse, the Naga shines with solid workmanship, a total of 19 cleverly arranged buttons, and a stylish design. Only the software to configure the mouse causes hair-pulling for some users. Like other mice from Razer, the Naga Gaming also has a somewhat dubious reputation regarding longevity. In this price range, it’s a tricky issue. Reports vary from “lasts forever” to “a new one every year and a half”. Certainly, this also depends on the careful treatment of the device.
- For the mouse, an unparalleled grip feel, an elegant design, the prominent brand name, and that it is specifically designed for MMOs speak in its favor. The picky software and somewhat dubious longevity are objections to the mouse.
Conclusion: For left-handers, there are hardly any alternatives in the gaming sector. For right-handers, the Naga is also an excellent choice once you have become friends with the software.

Mad Catz M.M.O. 7 Gaming Mouse, 6400 dpi, PC and MAC
The MMO 7 Gaming Mouse from Mad Catz is known for its unique design, and they traditionally place great value on high configurability.
This mouse also features various sliding, pulling, rotating, screwing, and additional parts, allowing length and weight to be adjusted. One might get the feeling that the mouse could also grow two eyes and then try to take over the All-Spark.
In terms of the number of available buttons, the MMO 7 Gaming Mouse boasts quite a lot. 15 buttons can be assigned a total of 90 commands thanks to various tricks. There’s really still room for the last skill, some obscure chat macro, or something.
- For the mouse, extreme accuracy, extreme configurability, and the overall extreme look of the mouse speak in its favor. It is also of high quality. The price and the fact that you probably have to engage with it extensively until it looks and functions as you want it to, are objections. Moreover, it could try to take over the world if left alone.
Conclusion: The Mad Catz is an eye-catcher and definitely worth its price.

Mein-mmo says: These are already three beauties we present here. No manufacturer would have been able to sustain in this price segment if they didn’t belong here. Whether there really needs to be such a mouse for MMOs or not – everyone must decide for themselves. However, Sebastian surely has one!
