I find the Naga/ Naga epic to be a better mouse. The side buttons are really easy to use once you get used to it after a day or two. And the Naga Epic is really the only choice if you want a wireless gaming mouse lol.


Wireless and gaming should never go together in the same sentence...

I fail to see why you would take the naga hex over the naga...


Because you don't need 12 extra side buttons that are hard to press and cramp some users thumbs with a couple hours of play? People do have different hands and use different grips :)

Personally I have and use http://www.cyborggaming.com/prod/mmo.htm and have found it to be great with being able to adjust it to how I like it and with more than enough buttons for a MMO.

The Hex also looks good with how the buttons are placed though and you should be able to use the flat of your thumb for them all with minimal fuss. As always the main thing with a mouse is to go and try it yourself. They are a very personal thing once you get past the responsiveness and accuracy.

I only use the ordinary naga

But here's some hex

74 68 65 20 6e 61 67 61 20 68 65 78 20 69 73 6e 27 74 20 61 73 20 67 6f 6f 64 20 61 73 20 74 68 65 20 6f 72 64 69 6e 61 72 79 20 6e 61 67 61 2e


Translated the hex "the naga hex isn't as good as the ordinary naga." very funny and I agree

Would this be based off of opinion then? Seems so...

I bought my Hex specifically for TERA, and I couldn't be happier. I have pretty small hands, so I'm very limited to the amount of numbers and Fkeys I can use without losing my hand placement.

-none of my spells are bound to letter keys for easier wasd movement
-spells with long cooldowns and potions are on the numbers and Fkeys
-everything else is on the Hex, using the number pad

Charging spells don't mess with my aim at all. The pressure from my thumb doesn't even make the slightest difference since I don't mash down. And the buttons are super easy to feel and reach so I never have to look down to see what I'm pressing.

The best part is that even though I've never used a multi-button mouse before, I had no trouble adjusting to the feel. It just felt..... natural.

I have both the original Naga and a Naga Hex which I've used for the last two CBTs. I like the functionality and ergonomics of the Hex much better. The mechanical switches on the Hex are very sensitive and allow charge + aim skills to work without disrupting aim. It really depends on your grip type, though. If you use a claw/fingertip grip, the Hex is obviously much better and requires much less of a squeeze to activate. The Naga requires a significant squeeze to activate. If you palm, the sensitivity of the Hex mechanical switches do not require any counter force on the right side of the mouse to activate. The same could also be said for the Naga but I personally don't find it very comfortable. The Hex is a good investment for a lot of upcoming games: TERA, Diablo III, GW2, Path of Exile, Torchlight II, etc. I like the Hex much much better than the Naga. I just hoped it isn't as notoriously flimsy.

There are four downsides to the Hex, though: 1. Synapse - I hate hate hate this thing and wish there was an unobtrusive driver; 2. Switch sensitivity - holy crap these things are sensitive. The hex requires more of a break-in period than the Naga to find the optimal thumb position and thumb rest so you don't go accidentally hitting buttons. Even M2 (right click) is very sensitive. At the same time M3 (scroll wheel button) requires much more force; 3. Less buttons - not really an issue as I don't need the 6 extra buttons to clutter the mouse AND I'm using a G13 gameboard so I can move and balance skill activation between both hands; 4. Design - it's ugly.
