Default New Mouse

I'm in the market a new mouse and was considering getting one with a multi-button group of 8 more buttons to help out with guild wars. I want one that is wireless, but I'm not too picky about how that is accomplished.

Any recommendations?

My experience with multi button mouses (Razer Lachesis) is that you end up not even using most of the buttons because they are inconveniently placed. The best layout would probably be a Razer Naga, but it's not wireless. If you're looking for a gaming mouse, I would recommend not going with wireless because they tend to not be as reliable as a wired one. Also.. not sure if they make a wireless version of the Naga, but that's my recommendation for a multi-button mouse.

Yeah I did some more searching and like you said the razr naga does look like the best option. I'm thinking about getting this one:

More than two thumb buttons is overkill, you'll end up not using most of them. I'm happy with Microsoft Sidewinder X5, it's not wireless though and for ppl with bigger hands.

IDK I could definitely see using those extra buttons for emoing, which is the main position I play.

I vote for Razer Naga its one of those more comfortable multi button mouse out there. I tried couple other one but their button area way to closely packed. Forget wireless you wouldn't notice the wire after awhile, and no battery to swap or charge, more stable and accurate. If you got a large hand I do advise try to find a local store and try it out because those button does't get tricky.

Default Alien Ware Mouse Set-UP

I got an alien ware mouse with my M17xR4 and its enough mouse for this newbie. I was wondering if anybody could save me some work by offering up a set up for the mouse to be used in Guild Wars 2.
Thanks to all replies.
