The Ultimate Division Mouse
Ok so I decided to make this post for 2 reasons.
First, since I got this mouse, I started enjoying Div1 and Div2 again, so I figured I'd share it with others.
Second, I realize most people are not like me and don't enjoy tinkering and theory-crafting, so I figured I would share the setup I personally found to be most enjoyable.
First of all, the mouse:
(And yes you guessed right, the tilt feature also makes it the ultimate mouse for R6S.)

I think I am like most other people, I hate gimmicky stuff that only seems awesome but doesn't really improve your experience in any way, so you can be sure the setup I use is to make my gameplay EASIER and thus more fluid and enjoyable. Obviously everyone has different preferences but if you don't feel like testing around or are looking for inspiration from something that works for someone, down below it is!
My grip and button cap setup is such that my fingers touch, but not trigger, the top knuckle triggers. That way I can trigger them by just the tiniest finger stretch.
I am unable to reach the front-most button next to the LMB.
I also use the tilt feet even when not using tilt, because it's more convenient to be able to tilt the mouse slightly when moving it left and right, it adds a little more mobility.
My keybinds are as follows:
- ability 1 and 2 on thumb buttons 1 and 2
- zoom on 30% deep click on RMB
- reload on right knuckle trigger push
- map on right knuckle trigger pull
- interact on left knuckle trigger push
- inventory on left knuckle trigger pull
- melee on left fingertip button, though you could also go with the left extra button
The idea behind this setup is obviously to have all the most important and frequently used functions without needing to move my fingers anywhere.
The only instances where my fingers move on my mouse are a slight upwards movement of my thumb to activate the other ability and a slight inward or sideways movement of my index finger to use melee, which I almost never use.
I also move my index or middle finger respectively to open map or inventory, but it's way more convenient than finding an off-WASD key on the keyboard.
I like to keep one finger on every single "ASAP" button as I call them, which are buttons I need to be able to push instantly during combat, which map and inventory are not part of.
