I have in the last two weeks gotten into Diablo III Reaper of Souls and find myself playing for lengthy periods.

I am using a Razer Deathadder mouse but my hand gets kind of achy after a while, I was wondering if anybody out there plays this and what mouse they use and how they find it ?

I have been looking at the Diablo III steel series one, any thoughts on this mouse also ?

Thanks.

I use a pen tablet and find it the best way to play, tap to walk, shift tap to attack, secondary attack on the pen. My tablet also has four buttons for the specials.

When I played, I've also used a Razor DeathAdder mouse. I've only found my pointer finger aching after extensive playing sessions, but that's expectable after so much left-clicking, no matter the mouse.

Regardless, I can verify that this mouse can take some really heavy usage without complains.

I bought and tried the Diablo III steel series mouse but my hand just does not get on with it, gone back to my trusty Deathadder Respawn :)

Thanks for the replies by the way.

Logitech G402 & G502 work just fine if you're right-handed...

Thanks for the pointer, only thing is I have an issue with mice with buttons on the right hand side, must be the way I hold a mouse, I press these buttons unintentionlly when moving the mouse around.

The two mice will go on my list to try though.

I actually played using the magic mouse back then. I don't remember all my configurations anymore but I remember setting spacebar to click/move so I didn't have to do any clicking on the mouse, it was purely for moving the cursor around.

Never thought of that :)

I find the magic mouse is just too low to use for any length of time. As for games, forget it. :)

I recommend a Logitech mouse. I use a Corsair M65 when I play on my PC.

Can I ask which Corsair M65 you use as there are several models of this this mouse ?

I play it with a Microsoft 5-button Intellipoint Optical USB mouse (El Capitan broke the extra buttons though at least until I can get a USB stick to disable SIP long enough to get the M$ driver working again), but the extra buttons aren't needed. 3 will due along with the keyboard. I've tried a lot of mice; I've liked the Intellipoint Optical USB the best. I don't think they make it anymore, but I was able to buy several off Ebay a year or so ago.
