WHY ARENT YOU SHOCKED

[@ratt3man]

If you're getting stuttering/FPS drops in games when running above 2k Hz check your chipset drivers (If you're on AMD for the CPU) I installed the ones released 7-26-2024 and that went away for me. 8k Hz will still give some rare and slight stuttering from time to time, but it could also be the game. I've tested it in Apex, The Finals, and Back 4 Blood and they all work at 4k - 8k Hz polling after the chipset driver update. Hope it helps.

[@jmantv7]

Thanks ill try that, I can’t remember the last time I updated my chipset drivers

Hi my hands are 16x8 what would you say will be a better pick the Sword X or the Thorn? I love the size and shape of the zowie ec2 (I dont like my GPX :i)

[@Diode7]

would you recommend the sword over the asus rog keris ii debating on these two mouses and not sure which to get would love to hear your feedback? i main the final mouse ulx at 8k polling its amazing but just want to switch up to a ergo style mouse due to having abit better aim in valorant with ergo style

[@RafaelSilva-yv3oh]

Pulsar XLite V3 (regular version, not the crappy esport one). Same shape, only an extra 3g and waaaaay cheaper. I also switched from the ULX to this one because I missed the Zowie EC3-CW but didn't wanna go back to that scroll wheel. I would stay away from Asus in general because having to install armoury crate is ruining your PC's OS

[@04raven]

@@RafaelSilva-yv3oh it's kinda funny that Sword X is 10$ cheaper to buy and ship in Russia. But anywhere else the XLite V3 is a MUCH better choice, mini and large versions for different hands also.

[@YurttheSilentChief1]

Evangelion is so influential in Japan that many video games and movies afterwards would include references in homage to the show. A shame that the only green color offering is just an accent to the purple body, not my preference at all.

yeah I had to negotiate myself out the purple because I jsut don't really vibe with the neon green. I like the purple on my beastx but the red/black looked really good as well so I picked that one instaed

For what its worth, i have the new Stormbreaker from pwnage and find the coating comfortable. I don't really sweat in it like i do with some other mice.

It isn’t the most slippery and wet coating you have ever felt on a mouse? Borders on unusable for me, very weird

[@8bittim]

@@boardzy compared to the razer basilisk V3 pro I had, which has grime all over from sweat 😅, and a beast x Max that I tried out, for my hand at least, the Stormbreaker is the one I don't really sweat on and fits my hand the best. That said I am curious about the sword x, but their downloadable software sucks and I can't always rely on web based software even if it's better

[@frappy0]

sword x is more like a true successor to the pulsar xlite v2. youd think it would be the xlite v3 but nope. that mouse was a let down in my opinion. as biden says im a sucker for egg shells

[@ZeBear]

What's wrong with the v3? I'm upgrading from my v2 and am trying to choose between these 2.

[@Boofski]

Boardzy can you check out the new Attack Shark X3 Pro? If the firmware issues you mentioned in your X3 review are fixed it seems like an insane mouse at $60 with a 3395 and 8k polling rate

[@daxie__3210]

Would it be worth getting this over the final mouse? Just got into the whole mouse thing and trying to find one that fits my grip (mainly claw). I’ve used the glorious model D felt good but switched to a pwnage ergo it feels a lot better but I’m not in love with it

[@boardzy]

If you used a model d and want something a bit smaller, lighter and more modern this could be a good option. Finalmouse and the BeastX would be much different feeling ambi shapes. There are also other ergos

[@RafaelSilva-yv3oh]

I see absolutely no reason to buy this over a Pulsar Xlite V3 mini at 52g and almost $100 cheaper.

[@RafaelSilva-yv3oh]

To be clear, I know he mentioned it as a $100 mouse. But it's been on sale at $70 since forever on Amazon, and it doesn't seem to be changing.

[@boardzy]

This is closer to the medium pulsar size and a decent bit lighter. When it comes to value definitely get a pulsar mouse for $70, even better if you're fine with 1k polling. Pulsar is releasing a magnesium xlite size 1.5 in a few months, they understand there's a market for magnesium premium ergos

[@boardzy]

That is what many people are saying

[@2D4J]

They used EVA colors, but of course they won't say it directly, since Evangelion exists as a brand, and using the brand without permission is a violation. Asus and Evangelion did an official collaboration, and used the anime name. And so, yes, it is a reference to Evangelion. In the photos, where the colors of the mice and their sword are presented, you can see that the sword of this version is made in a mechanized style.

[@godtinho1041]

Shocking spanish señor.

[@jenglercs]

What’s a good “filling the hand ergo mouse” similar to thorn and vaxee ax since this is more claw focused rather than palm

[@boardzy]

If you want that type of mouse but dont like the thorn or outset AX I don't know what you would like honestly. Maybe a dav3 pro just since its longer/something different?

[@chronozeta]

Speaking strictly shape wise i dont think you can get anything better than Outset AX atm. Its the king %100. Other than that go on eloshapes and compare other ergos

[@yhiz4757]

"My right click is louder and sharper than my left click but overall no issues" lol same issue as the vxe R1 pro and some other mice, mehhhh definitely disappointing for a $155 mouse

[@boardzy]

It’s most likely the angle of the shell or a poorly binned switch. Id imagine future batches will tune it up

[@yhiz4757]

​@@boardzy Ngl I think it's either that or the side button PCB dampening the sound of one of the left click, this is the case with my vxe R1 pro and also the op1 8k Vs my Atlantis which has it's side button PCB mounted on top of the main PCB and as a result the clicks basically sound the same, was planning on seeing if I can add foam somewhere to even out the sound on my R1 pro

Can someone tell me if these wlmouse mices actually perform well on the sensor side? Like are they actually good on the latency & sensor accuracy side? I want to try them but have huge doubts about their sensor implantations and QC issues and such

[@boardzy]

Yeah, there has been plenty of testing done their firmware and implementations are solid compared to lots of other domestic chinese offerings. Why are you concerned?

[@koennako2195]

they’re about on par in terms of performance to any Chinese implantation (including lamzu and ninjutsu) which is nothing special or bad (it performs as advertised). It does have some problems with polling instability, but if your computer is configured correctly and your pc is good, it should be fine.

[@chronozeta]

⁠@@boardzyIm concerned about issues such as tracking accuracy, dpi deviation, compatibility with glass pads, worse than average polling/hz instabilities In 2024 i really expect premium mices to have none of these problems anymore, if im buying latest gen sensor mice @8khz i want to see very stable consistent results

[@chronozeta]

I am on Outset Ax 4Khz atm and i pretty much trust Vaxee a lot with their sensor implementation and stability, and the shape is definitely endgame ergo (for me atleast) - the coating is also amazing, however i still expect even more upgraded versions of the Outset Ax with the same shape. I believe they should work on the side buttons and the scroll and the weight

[@boardzy]

No issues with glass pads, tracking, or polling stability, solid 3950 implementation. What do you think Vaxee would be doing different at a firmware level to be better? Main difference is Vaxee not understanding debounce time and having a few ms higher click latency. This probably won’t be worth it if you’re satisfied with the outset AX though

@@jimbo_modeso what’s the verdict

[@2D4J]

It looks interesting, but the visual appearance is probably one of the worst. The ergo with honeycombs looks as visually repulsive as possible. I would prefer the OGM Pro v2, both visually and in terms of shape. But to each his own.

[@boardzy]

Fair, I have an OGM pro v2 I haven't been using much, gotta cover it soon

[@2D4J]

@@boardzy I'm waiting for the OGM Pro V2 the other day myself, along with the Scyrox V8. I played for about a month on Pure Air, I bought it because I think Kone Pro Air is the best representative of ergonomically shaped mice, and the only disadvantages are the weight and tactilely weak mice, which some people may not like. At the same time, it has the best wheel implementation of any mouse I've used, and a great shape with large sides. Although I would also note that after some software update, the Kone Pro's wireless stability dropped. The Pure Air is certainly not exactly what I would have liked to get, it may not look much smaller on EloShapes, but in person it's a huge difference.

Why the sensor position is awful for you?

[@yhiz4757]

​@@markus301 Just too low, I prefer higher sensor placements due to it just being nicer to make microadjustments but even regular sensor positions are fine for me. When it's too low though it sorta feels like my microadjustments have to be done moreso with my arm or I have to overwork my wrist to do something that I could have done with less movement on a higher sensor position. I also end up having different grip styles based on the sensor positioning and end up ftipping most of my mice as claw makes me grip further up if I want a comfortable grip but the sensor is usually too low so my microadjustments feel like too much effort Vs ftip and they feel muted. Also showed the sensor placement to a lot of people I know and they basically gave the same reaction of "Ew" Tldr higher sensor better cuz easier microadjustments but not too high otherwise no stability.

[@boardzy]

Also why did nobody complain when they "stole" shapes from finalmouse?

[@s34s3n]

The art style of the mousepad is inspired by traditional Chinese aesthetics, reflecting the fact that both the company and its newly released sword-themed mouse are Chinese. While the mousepad design resembles the Padsmith Crucible, it is important to note that it does not directly copy any elements. Instead, it features a dragon and sword rendered in a Chinese ink style, and this design was created specifically for WLMouse by a designer.
