>>
>>341973857
100, 300 or 700?
>>
I feel you senpai, mine has died several years ago.
>>
>>341973857
It looks good, I assume it has a similar feel to the mx 518 since you recommend it?
>>
>>341973857
>cord became broken
If you mean that it got cut/snapped/torn, you should be able to splice it back together.
>>
Get a G400s
>>
>>341974665
>Get a G400s

this. it's identical.
>>
>>341973636
I got a G500 for like 15$ when my mx518 started dying
>>
>>341974665
didnt they stop manufacturing those too
>>
>>341975881
yup
>>
>>341973636
buy a 15 bucks logitech mouse and stop being a fucking moron.
>>
>>341976174
I dunno... my mx518 was pretty damn good
>>
MX 518.. fucking legendary. Lasted me 8 years. Best mouse I ever touched, from start to finish. Switched to G400s when it finally bit the dust.
>>
>>341973636
Buy one used but still functional on eBay.
>>
I still have one it cost 15 eurobucks seven years ago. Still going strong. Too bad all gaming mouses nowadays are edgy razor shit.
>>
meh
death adder is superior
>>
>>341976101
Did they release another nearly identical successor or..?
>>
My MX518 lasted me years, was so upset when it finally gave out. Keep it around OP, it served you well.
>>
>>341973636
Probably dying because someone took a hammer to it or something. Don't get so mad at video games, OP.
>>
>>341976464
Mine was still functional but the plastic legs were so worn out that it didn't glide as well. Had to take it to the back yard..
>>
What is the edgiest mouse you can buy? I'm looking around for one to give to a friend.
>>
Mfw i always saw a snowman's face at the bottom of the mouse
>>
>>341973636
Mine is still working and tonight I will hold it tight and lovingly because they are gone too soon!
>>
Just beat a normal Logitech with a hammer

>>
>>341973636
my 6 year old mx518 batman edition is still working but i have used other mice for last 1-2 years, recently i decided to plug it in to see how it fares and oh boy, the 125hz angle snapping garbage sensor is terrible and absolutely doesnt hold up to todays standarts. Went back to g303
>>
>>341976630
probably a R.A.T

I sure love Death Adders
You'll never know whether your buttons will double click or if the mousewheel breaks first.
>>
>>341973636
>MX518
>DYING

What the fuck bro, you beating the mouse with a hammer every day or something? That mouse is one of the strongest pieces of technology after the older nokia phones.
>>
>>341973636
i know that feel op.
get a rival 100, simple, no bullshit, comfy.
Gunk from your finger collects on the top of it hella quick, so maybe don't get the white one.

Then fix it you tard.
Cord frayed on mine and I just rewired it, it took longer looking for the solder than it did fixing it.
Fucking kids these days.

Dunno if you're being sarcastic or not lol. But I tend to drink water now. Right now it's Vodka but that's for other reasons

>it's not manufactured anymore

W-what? What am I supposed to get that is as comfy when my current one dies?
>>
If you care about tracking get a DA2013. Vastly superior to the Logitech g400s in my opinion.
>>
>>341973636
Get G502
>>
IKTF. my third mx518 just died a week ago or so, this sucks

Happened to me too.
I got the Arachnid Sicarius because it had a near identical button setup and I'm pretty happy with it.
>>
Holy shit all these retarded logishills

It's not 2005 anymore retards there's less than zero reason to give a terrible company like logitech your money

My DeathAdder / G400 will work forever as long as I put in new micro switches

You might want to get one of these op.
>>
>>341973636
wow what the hell happened to that mouse, how'd it get so dented?
>>
>>341982059

What's wrong with >>341981424 ?

It has a simply button setup and isn't flashy in any way (aside from that you can make the spider glow in different colors).
>>
I upgraded to a G400, might be expensive but worth it
>>
my MX 518 emits an annoying audible hiss but it's still working after all these years
>>
>>341982238
it is made that way, anon
>>
>>341982501

Have you checked it for snakes?
