How do you like the Lachesis?

Have been thinking about getting one..

I like mine so far. I've only got it like 3 hours ago :laugh: so I'm still experimenting with the settings. It's comfortable in my hand and works well as a mouse.

I'm going to search a bit for the 'ideal' settings. Many people say that 4000dpi is too much for daily use - well I set it to 4000dpi and put the sensitivity on 2 and that increases the precision though the pointer doesn't travel as fast.

And btw the driver supplied with the disk didn't function correctly. I mean it installed and when I rebooted the buttons functioned but the pointer didn't move, it remained at the centre of the monitor.
I downloaded the new driver (not the firmware) from the razer site and it works fine now.

Edit: You should read the review on TPU. (http://www.techpowerup.com/printreview.php?id=/Razer/Lachesis);)

Hey Sol! How do you like your keyboard?:)

its amazing its a little louder than i expected but much MUCH more quite than my eclipse and the buttons are absolute perfection with their rubber coating. very fast response time and the simultanious key press is wicked handy and it can do like 50 buttons at once i dont use that kind of feature but i dont get any system beeps when i rpes more than 2 now :)

also the volume control stop/pause/play next/back /Vup/Vdown keys as well as the button that changes the lighting is actually a touch pad not physicall buttons and that lights up as well as the huge razer logo right in the middle :)


o btw list updated :)

The feel of it I liked but you must keep the old driver and download the add on becuase it won't work in COD4 as I use the number 4 and 5 for leaning left and right and with the old driver it jumped

One of the main reasons I bought the Lachesis was because I needed a high dpi mouse, not only while gaming but because the way my desk is I don't have enough mouse space even for browsing and was constantly hitting my keyboard with the mouse and have to lift it and reposition it. That is not so bad while browsing but while gaming...:shadedshu

Now the thing is that the retailer gave me a razer mantis mat free. I wouldn't have taken it if it wasn't free... for the reason you can see in the picture below!:laugh:

Now the mat is really good (I've only ever used the desk or real cheapo mats that the desk is actually better). And I would really like to use the mat, if not for anything to save the wear and tear from the mouse's pads.

Thing is that if I try to put it on the same level as my speakers, I'm not accustomed to have the mouse so high because I keep it on the keyboard and rest my arm on the arm of the chair. If I put it high I end up with an achey arm. And I think if I put it under my keyboard in order to use the mouse on the part which is exposed I guess the mat'd get damaged due to pressure points from the keyboard. And to cut the mat up in 6" x 6" pieces would be a pity wouldn't it?

Another thing I wanted to ask, for those of you who have a Lachesis:
- Do you use the same sensitivity and dpi setting while browsing and while gaming?
- Do you think it's better if I use same settings all the time, or better if I use different settings depending on whether I'm gaming or not? Would the latter make it more difficult for me to get used to the mouse?

Right now I got it set at 3125dpi and 10 sensitivity. It's wonderful for gaming. It's also comfortable for browsing since I move my mouse like 1/2 inch to get from one side of the 22" monitor to the other so even though I have very small space I don't need to lift the mouse. However it's a bit difficult to hit the right spots while browsing. I get accustomed to it like after 15 minutes of usage. To top it all at work I my mouse is far from gaming standard (it's still good old roller ball!:eek:) but I don't want to go to the extent of having to carry my own mouse to work!!!:roll:

[Solaris17]

you get used ot it black panther..its hard at first to get the right place in a browser window etc...but you get used to it and it actually gives your senses something to do imo...you see in a game on a 22 inch screen the only thing your ging to need real percision for is sniping right? other than that it just lets you move around fast helping you get the edge in your game....however i tend to leave the sensativity up in desktop and while browsing because 1 you adjust to the sensativity quicker and imo your senses get sharper because you learn to click on little ity bitty drop down boxes with a high sensativety lazer helps in all areas imo...

[Homeless]

I don't own a mantis, although I sure wouldn't mind owning one :)

[Black Panther]

I'd appreciate some help on what a friend just told me:

He got a razer piranha and didn't get a driver disk and he said neither did he find drivers online. And his sound is bad like an un-tuned radio receiver...

thanks! :respect:

The main problem is not really managing to put the pointer on the exact place.
It's the clicking part which is going to drive me up a wall! :banghead:

For example, I'd see a link, put pointer exactly on link with no problem, click..... and...... during the clicking action the pointer moves a fraction of an inch and instead I 'select' part of the link!

Gaming is different. I can game much better now. What solution is there? I didn't get a high dpi mouse to adjust it to low dpi and start banging the keyboard and lifting mouse again (don't have much mouse space).

:cry:

[Solaris17]

imo your just going to have to get used to it with me it was hard but it was a much bigger mouse than i had had before so the back of my hand touches the table this adds stablility for situations like this.

i have a razer mouse pad....does that count :p

Black Panther is that an IKEA chair? (if i am mistaken :slap: for me)
Because it looks like one I am considering to buy, if so how is the build quality? Because I am having a few doubts about how it will last with that price tag
sorry if it is too of topic :o

We don't have the IKEA brand in my country so it's definitely not IKEA.

If you like it I will take a photo of the chair and I pm it to you. It's good quality - I've been using it for nearly a year now, it's got wheels, is rotating, comfortable but not too soft, real leather and I bought it for ~$140.

There is one glitch though -- the armrests aren't padded.

Look at my photo, previously I used to keep my mouse on the level of the satellite speakers and that got me a somewhat sore shoulder. I saw a photo of a similar desk on TPU with the mouse on the same level as the keyboard and was surprised how much more comfortable that was! (Gotta love TPU for ideas!)
The thing is that to use the mouse on the same level as the keyboard means that I have to rest my elbow on a rock-hard unpadded armrest which is now making my elbow bone sore... :ohwell:

So what can I say, my chair would be fantastic... only if it had padded armrests!

On the topic of razer:
I think I mentioned before in this thread that the drivers which came with my lachesis on disk didn't work correctly and I had to download the updated drivers from the net.

I notice that there is also firmware update.
I would like to know from owners of Lachesis mice which firmware version you are using, and whether you suggest I download the latest firmware.
Normally I say that if something isn't broke you shouldn't fix it, but there is some stuff which doesn't work like I would like it to. For example if I'm using my ODD like installing a game while browsing the net the mouse pointer starts moving slowly upwards. :confused:

Can i join the illustrious Razer club?

I have a Razer Diamondback 3G, Green.

It was before i was banned that some people on the forums suggested i get a Razer mouse due to the excellent build quality, precision and comfort.

Id say that sometimes the left buttons for me as a right handed person are hard to use not overly tho.

The shape has become comfortable after a few months use, ive got quite fat hands lol

It needs a mouse pad tho as the wood of the desk although slidey isnt ideal and i dont like the small lumps of dirt that form on the edges of the bottom of the mouse.

I contacted the retailer, and he did suggest that I update the firmware.

Last March the Firmware v1.64 was released for the Lachesis.
It's amazing the difference it made to my mouse.
It's actually very stable now. I can even browse using 4000dpi at full 10 sensitivity. Though I decrease the dpi to 3875 (one notch down for 125dpi less) for more comfort in browsing. The new firmware for the Lachesis really rocks!:rockout:

Might I add that I browse/game at such high dpi because I downloaded the CPL MouseFix (http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/763/.html) from TPU.

It makes a difference, mouse movement is more realistic in that when you move your mouse on the pad the pointer moves the same amount on the monitor whether you move the mouse slowly or you jerk it fast. Test it out, if you don't have the mousefix installed if you move your mouse the same distance but faster it will make the picture on the monitor move very disproportionately when compared to the result you get with the mousefix.

I agree it's a lot better. I got the beta testing version first but this full version is a lot better

Originally bought it 2nd hand with carrying pouch @ car boot sale for £0.5. Brilliant mouse for me. I like the sensitivity & that my wrist doesn't get tired. Definetly going to buy more Razer products :)

[Black Panther]

Little update - I really got the hang of the Lachesis now, I don't think I'll ever move to a non-gaming mouse! (I'm itching to use it on my work pc but that'll get me some funny looks for sure :laugh:)

The grip is magnificent too. My hands get a little sweaty while gaming (adrenaline?) and my previous mice ended up feeling like a wet dead fish in my hands, but not the Lachesis! :)

[DeltaFox]

Black Panther, you have experienced how using high quality input devices greatly enhance productivity and comfort when using a computer.
unfortunately that does not seem to be the case for the many office workers, who work with computers for as much eight hours a day.
Its really a shame how ignorant the average computer user is about what effect their peripherals like mouse, keyboard and monitor have
and ultimately quite a few grow to feel uncomfortable or even hating using a computer.
It is really so stupid to cut computer costs on such an important component to save $/€/£ !!!
So bigger keyboard/mouse budgets ftw
