Think I'll be sticking to me Razer Lachesis

Looks better imo.

indeed, it is the best mouse ive used too.

Only thing is I HAVE to use the middle mouse, uni 3d modelling work it gives it a right beating. Dont think this is the mouse for me if every one seems to do this :/ Shame, cus every other part of the mouse is superb

lol, majority of clicking I do is used with middle mouse to adjust viewing angles.

I've had mine since release and as Psypher said mine broke too on Friday. I've used the mousewheel everyday, pretty intensively in 3D modelling programs and it was fine up until friday when I was scrolling down a webpage, it jerked, then there was nothing

I think I'll be getting a replacement, it really is an awesome mouse. Hopefully Roccat will fix this soon if it really is a hardware defect with all Kones.

And snap went the scroll wheel on my mouse.

Out comes the MX518.

Edit: Aghhhhh, it feels so wrong.

Do I ask OCuk or Roccat about this?

You'd think someone might have checked how robust the mousewheel was prior to release?

unlucky mate

Its just a ticking bomb for everyone then.
My copperhead is limping along while I do my uni work! whaha

Roccat didnt reply to my email, should have thought as much. Ace Modder anychance you could slap roccat about this? I want a replacement over xmas (rma, when I finally get chance!) but I dont want another kone to die on me, which looks like I can bet a tenner that it will..

on the roccat kone mouse is there anyway of telling what dpi its set to like on my Fatal1ty mouse ive got a light that changes colour red,amber,green=400,800,2400 dpi.

And snap went the scroll wheel on my mouse... again.

Maybe time for a refund.

I am pretty sure that if they got rid of the tilt function the mouse wheel would be much stronger. The mouse wheel is quite hard to click, and if your accidentally tilt it at the same time it probably puts more stress on the joints.
