Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of SteelSeries Special-Edition World of Warcraft MouseCustomer Review: Very Pleased Summary: 5 Stars
Back in February I was looking for a new mouse as mine was about to die. Since I do play wow, I somehow came across this mouse in my search. In my excitement I just ordered the mouse without doing much research first.. (I usually never do that and was surprised that I was so spontaneous)
Once I started reading all the posted reviews on many different sites, I was very worried about all the problems that have been reported with sticky buttons, not working, DOA, not true macros ect. So, now I thought I made a mistake by ordering this which would be really bad as this was 99$.
Well I got my mouse a few days later and I went ahead and unpacked it and installed the drivers from the website. So far so good. I received it on a Friday so I spent a little bit of time configuring the buttons to my liking.. This took a bit until I was satisfied.
Then I went and cleared Naxx.
Yes During the raid I was having issues on how it did the macros with it using the chat window.. So, I took a few seconds when they were looting, and made the macros inside wow, enabled another action bar (dominos) scaled it way down and made it invisible unless I mouse over. Drug the macros out there, assigned key stroke and then bound that key to the desired mouse button. Problem solved. After approx 6 hours of play the mouse was still working (no sticky buttons) and I was completely sold on it. Thank God!
I have used the mouse daily for the past 3 going on 4 months and have had no major issues. The mouse works great. I can't imagine playing without it now. It helps being able to watch the fight and just press a button rather than watching the action bar ect.
Just because I am paranoid on a static electricity discharge frying the mouse as some reported, I have a computer case that is metal right at the edge of my desk. So before I touch the mouse, I always touch the side of the case first.. During the colder months this proved critical as there were times I did discharge some static. Now that it has warmed up, no issue but I still touch just in case. I would rather take 2 seconds and touch the case and be ok than touch the mouse and shock it to it's death.
I consider myself lucky to not have received one of the flawed mice. I love this and will probably order another one for my laptop. So when I am on the laptop, I don't have to unplug/plug the mouse in addition to moving cables.
I use this mouse in addition to the logitech g13 gaming board and between the two, I have enough buttons to do whatever I want.
Despite all the negative reviews and flawed mice that did ship out, I am very pleased and highly recommend the mouse.
