I'm running out of room for keybindings for wow (4 accounts atm, getting a fifth) and need some programmable buttons that wow will recognise. I've got a G11 but it's too awkward and doesn't have enough keys. If I bought another G11, would I be able to programme the normal keys (i.e a-z 0-9) as macros rather than pay 160usd for a 58key keyboard from a competitor?

Eh ?
I see no reason for G11/G15 for WoW or any other mmorpgs, by the time it takes you to move your hand from WASD to the side panel to push macro you could have been dead. I guess it's fine for PvE and casual gameplay but if you wanna be top in PvP every scratch of second is precious.

Did you even read my post? I'm a multiboxer, I've got 4 accounts at the moment and will have 5 in the future. Over 200 keybindings and I still can't control my characters fully, ofc I need BUTTONZ! :P
 
Wilko49, I was looking at both the Belkin and the Logitech you linked after I created the thread. Has anyone got experience with them? The G13 has more keys, but also a much higher price tag. I can see the Belkin has 3 keymap stats, so I'm assuming that means the 15 keys can have 3 different macros each, but that's a bit too impractical for me. The G11 has 18programmable keys, with 3 keymaps, but they are also a bit impracticle. Which is why I'm swaying towards the G13.
 
Yes I was looking at one of those, but as you said they are expensive if new (cheapest is 160usd!)

How much would you have to pay to get the buttons built to your spec like that?

Can't see them anywhere atm :( If you see the product you mentioned for cheap somewhere email via trust if you could :)

What realm do you play on? Which classes? Always nice to see a fellow boxer :P
Levelling 4 toons atm (but not allowed to play them atm due to account issues).
62 Druid (tank), 62 mage, 62 shammy (ele), 62 mage. when they reach 72 my paladin will join the group and take over the role of tank

I did say in my original reply that i spent £40 and that picture isn't of my x-keys but of one i found on the internetz.

$1160 is a bit much? I guess you mean $116. It really is a great bit of kit and i cant recommend it enough - $116 new is really not bad at all.

Yes I realised that you didn't put them on yourself, I worded my reply wrong.
As for pricing I meant 160usd xP which is quite a bit more than a G13 and
since I only earn £100 a week it'd be good if the G13 was adequate for my
needs, though if you think the xkeys are the way to go I can save up :)

*edit* after checking from their site, looks like I will have to find it for auction somewhere as you did,
since with shipping costs included it's 250usd or something around that....

I play on Turalyon - EU. There's a few boxers on Turalyon. My main team is the standard 4x lvl80 Elemental Shamans. But also have countless other teams on the go.

Im sure you'll be fine with the G13 - especially with a new team. I just found i needed a lot more buttons for all the unique situations you get into playing PvP. I think PvE you could get away with about 3 keybinds with how easy things are at the moment. lol

Tehe - I'm planning on icc10 5box with the 5 toons, perhaps 10box if I can find the funds! The extra buttonz come in handy for individual movement hotkey's, though I might just use a dummy keyboard on my netbook.

Have you got any mixed class teams? I was thinking of a feral druid/rogue/warrior/2dk settup sometime!
