"Saving the profile to the mouse memory fixes this. ... Then you can use it in any computer and it just works. ... I don’t even run the icue software anymore. ... You still initially save it through icue, but you use one of the 3 hardware spots on the actual mouse. ... Iv’e gifted 3 of these to friends who play with me, I opened each mouse and saved a profile so they wouldn’t have to mess with it. Plug them in and it’s ready to go."
"Works fine tbh ... Once you get it setup, you're pretty much good."

"their software is literally a piece of steaming dog shit. ... It's completely broken for me, I can't uninstall it ... it broke all the sound from my pc with a windows restoration being the only solution. ... Now I have to use the mouse as is, without any settings or macros. ... So first the software stopped working, couldn't recognize my mouse from one minute to the next. No settings work, can't change buttons. ... after deleting the software I got no sound. All my sound drivers were intact and everything, but no sound at all. ... So now I just have the useless broken iCue taking up space on my pc, and the program looks like a GPU glitch when opened, only that program. ... It's the most horrendous piece of software I've ever had the unfortune to install. ... I've literally had pc viruses that were easier to get rid of. ... the program forces me to update. And I can't uninstall to begin with."
"My scimitar would randomly "unplug/replug" itself (Windows USB sound would play) ... and then it would forget all custom keybinds until I rebooted...often in the middle of a key. ... I chucked it out the window after a year of pain"
"Icue is also surprisingly even worse and crash prone than synapse was for me."

"I also found the side buttons to be too "flush" with each other ... I also found the numbers on the side to be too flush with each other, making it easy to misclick or click multiple buttons at once"
"the buttons are in an very awkward position if you try to use anything past the first 2 columns ... If you move the numpad forward then the first buttons are hard to reach. If you move the numpad backward then the last buttons are hard to reach"
"The Scimitar buttons also didn't feel as good as the Naga"

"their shitty scroll wheel keeps destorying itself"
"the scroll wheel will eventually start scrolling up when you are trying to scroll down."
"You **will** experience the mouse wheel fucking up (registering up scrolls as down and downs as ups on some of the clicks)"

"had it twice, both times broke in under 6 months, don't want to ever buy it again"
"mine ultimately failed because of the common issue that happens due to the plastic they use for the top housing being softer than the switches they use on the left / right click so as you continue to use it eventually the switch indents the plastic and it stops actuating."
"My scroll wheel always broke on my scimitars. ... To the point where I'd need new ones like once a year."
Weight doesn't really matter much if all you do is non-competitive games, but I play a mix of most game genres and after switching from a scimitar (corsair's mmo moise) to a lightweight deathadder I don't think I can go back. My aimlabs score on multiple tests improved by like 20-30%. The deathadder with the AA battery is a good bit heavier I think
r/buildapcsales • [MOUSE] Razer Naga V2 HyperSpeed Wireless MMO Gaming Mouse - $66.99 ($99.99-$33) ->Corsair scimitar. Switched to it after using the older Razer naga with the indented clickers. It’s like the 2012 or 2014 version or something, anyway. Corsair has 12 buttons, I use all of them, they’re angled nicely. Mouse texture feels good. Very customizable rgb due to Icue (I haven’t had a problem with icue) you can fine tune the dpi as well. Tons of profiles due to it also. On my third or fourth year with it and it’s still working perfectly
r/wow • I need a new MMO mouse. ->My g600 bit the dust last year and I’m so sad. I had to switch to the Corsair scimitar which is good, but no g600 😭
r/wow • Ideal mouse for playing WoW ->personally I use a corsair mmo mouse, but like the red dragon they don't offer a mirror version for left hand use that is one thing the azeron company does well is they have mirror versions of everything
r/disabledgamers • Looking for One-Handed Gaming Solutions: Advice on the Azeron Cyro or Alternatives ->Corsair scimitar, comfort for me
r/pcmasterrace • Help for a mouse that fits my hand ->it has a known double clicking problem, or did, maybe they fixed it. I went through 2 of them
r/wow • Best mouse for WoW with side buttons? ->If you want the Logitech g600, look up "Logicool g600" on eBay. It's the same mouse, it never got discontinued in Japan, but the name Logitech was taken over there so they had to rebrand for japanese products to Logicool. I tried a Corsair scimitar, Razer Naga, and Steel series Aerox 9 and nome of them held up to the g600 imo
r/wow • What MMO mouse would you Recommend for WoW? ->Thanks everyone, saw the corsair scimitar was on sale for only $20 more than the M811 so I decided to get the scimitar. Hopefully I can get the hang of all the buttons lol.
r/TibiaMMO • Redragon M811 ->Scimitar 4th year no problems. But Razer Naga is solid.
r/MMORPG • Decent MMO mouse? ->Looking for a new mouse. Only play wowand only do Arena. I can get by with a minimum of 3 side buttons. Not interested in The Logitech MMO mouse I use that for a day and couldn't stand it. I ran the first Corsair scimitar for a while and I wasn't a huge fan but it wasn't horrible so the new wireless version is something that I'm looking at. Naga pro V2 is not something I'm interested in. I have a naga pro right now and I'm not a fan of the software. So my requirements are good software a minimum of three side buttons. Wireless and wired. And something on the bigger side that'll fit my hand. Not really concerned about cost not even really concerned if the mouse needs anything changed bonus points if there's any STLs out there for the mouse that I could print a different shell for that would give me the fit that I want.
