I've been buying scimitars for MMOs since they released, and now I cannot buy any other mouse. It's fantastic. The only caveat is that the clickpads wear down and the scroll wheel stops working way sooner than it should for a AAA company mouse. I feel like, with heavy gameplay every day, these should last 5 yrs. Mine ususally only last 2-3.

i use this fir more than my MMOs like ffxiv, throne and liberty and many others. works good for crafting games with many toolbars. was a tad bit confusing mapping the buttons at first but was able to learn fairly quickly.

Great mouse. Responsive, tactile, and very customizable! Software is not my favorite.
A little small for my hands and grip and I wear size M gloves.

The mouse is super comfortable and the adjustable side buttons are a nice touch. downside is if you have fat thumbs its hard not to hit more than 1 at a time. The corsair software is not the greatest though and does not make programming the side buttons easy at all. also depending on the grip you have you cant reset your mouse without pinching the buttons on the side so its kind of a pain.

Great mouse for MMO's, not so much for shooters.

This is a really great mouse for MMO's and general use. Fits well in my big hands via palm grip, features a bunch of programmable buttons, feels very high quality. This may not be the mouse for you if you're looking for something light for shooters, have small hands, or want to go wireless. None of those flaws bother me, though wireless would be nice.

I recently picked up the Corsair Scimitar mouse because it was on sale and I thought it would be a good upgrade from my Logitech G600 -- seeing as they're nearly identical mice with 12 inner-thumb buttons.
The Corsair's RGB options are more fun and it has several more light sources on the mouse than Logitech's.
However at the end of the day I'm planning to return the Corsair and keep using my Logitech. The Logitech G600 is half the price and honestly feels a little sturdier (I don't accidentally press the inner thumb buttons like I do on the Corsair when using it casually) and the lighting/key reprogramming software is way easier to use.
I don't hate Corsair's iCue software (I have a Corsair keyboard) but it feels clunky, too technical and unintuitive.
I don't think the Scimitar is a bad mouse but when the Logitech G600 is sitting right there for half the price and offers basically the same functionality, I'm sticking with it over this.
Unless you're just dying to jump through iCUE's weird program hoops to program some extra lights on your mouse, I recommend spending less and getting the G600.

The side buttons work great and can be adjusted to fit your hand size and grip. DPI is more than enough and this mouse is very useable for not only MMOs, but anything else in my opinion. I’m not the biggest fan of Corsair, but this is a great gaming mouse. Now if they just solve the ICue problem….

I love this mouse but, the mousewheel notoriously breaks. I've become so dependent on the side buttons and I wish they'd restructure how the mouse wheel is made.

I have issues with my hands and wrists so a device like this is almost a necessity for me, no matter what I'm playing. Being able to bind keys on easy to access buttons that require no additional hand movement is a godsend. The adjustable keys alongside Corsair's top-notch build quality and support are really what set this above the rest, with Logitech's version being a close second. Whether you play MMOs or simply want to make navigation shortcuts, this mouse is great.

I’ve had Corsair mice and keyboards since I’ve started pc gaming. I’ll never go back. They feel great and they’re durable cause I can’t tell you how many beers I’ve spilled on these and after a good clean they still work phenomenally

Mouse is really comfortable to those with thicker hands. Buttons are also really nice to press with all the clicks. Also customizable RGB with the Corsair App. Can also set DPI modes within the App.

One of the best MMO mice available. Purchased for wife who has smaller hands. Software isn't particularly intuitive but none of it is for any of the MMO mice and i've tried them all. I actually prefer the Logitec G-600 because its a bit larger and fits my hand better, HOWEVER, build quality and longevity of the Corsair is top notch. Once you get a handle on the software, key bindings ect. you'll never go back to a regular mouse again,

Very sturdy. My first one lasted several years of constant abuse and only needed replaced because I let it get gunked up instead of taking care of it and keeping it clean. Easily had hundreds of thousands of clicks on the side buttons and never had one fail. The ONLY negative is having to download the icue app but it really isnt that big of a deal.

It's very comfortable. I love being able to customize The side buttons and center. The two bu ttons below the scroll wheel are customizable as well. It comes with one of then to change profile and the other to change PDI. I just changed it so both are PD I up/down instead of rotate. My right click is becoming touchy now though.

If your into mmo's or in need of a mouse with an array of buttons, look no further.
I've been using this mouse for almost a year and it's really helped in taking my gaming to a whole other level. Feels comfortable and light. I will say that sometimes the drivers/app may cause some games to crash so if you are experiencing game crashes, uninstall the app.

It’s a solid overall MMO/MOBA mouse. Light, but sturdy. My only real complaint is that it’s software for keybinds and lighting effects etc. is not the most user friendly. You have to save after assigning each button and open a new action before starting the next. Also the light in front of the side buttons color change options are not found in ‘lighting’ rather in DPI.

Honestly so far it’s a wonderful mouse for it’s price. Adjustable and sturdy with a comfortable feel. It’s got great color and tracks well without a mouse pad on a solid wood desk. I would honestly recommend this to anyone who needs a mouse for gaming of any kind. I use it for both FFXIV and League of Legends. With an adjustable dpi I feel it’s great for FPSs as well.
