(Would be kinda hard to get used to new bindings here...)
3. Pet: Roar of Sacrifice
4. Scroll Up - Silence Mouse Over Macro (If shift. they zoom in / out)
Scroll Down - Scatter Mouse Over Macro (If shift. they zoom in / out)
Press - Would be target self, would rarely use it as I find it hard to click without scrolling.
5. Pet: Intervene
6. Pet: CC
7. Pet: Masters Call
Gives me a really good useability of the pet abilities and the mouse over macros.
8. Set focus target
9. Macro to pop lifeblood and arena potion from alchemist.
(Buttons i need to acces fast)
10. Proximo Target 4
11. Proximo Target 3
12. Proximo Target 2
13. Proximo Target 1
(Great position to target people in proximo)
14. Aspect of the Dragonhawk
15. Aspect of the Viper
(Easy aspect change on a reasonable place)
So overall, it would increase my performance as I could move all the tricky things, such as pet control and mouse over macros out here, and perfection it. Together with the great targeting option it just brings me and overall godmode mouse.
I would setup a second profile for PvE, as dual specs becomes available, it's even more perfect to be able to "dual spec" your mouse.
I'd have a profile for arena pvp, bg pvp, idling and pve.
With coming dual specs I'd aswell have two profiles per area where i am at the moment (pvp / pve / idling).
I might keep the standard bind setup (like shown on http://s.sk-gaming.com/image/image/3d16e80c27ed0b73l.jpg) for the idling part.
For pve I'd addjust some of the standard binds for a handy assist of various targets, gear swapping (I'm dk so i have quite a few gear sets) and stance swapping for different situations.
For pvp, where the mouse shines most, I would setup as follows:
1. Select (Left click)
2. Attack (Right click)
3. Assist Target
4. Zoom In / Zoom Out / Rune Strike
5. Focus
6. Leap and Gnaw Ghoul macro (Ghoul Jump + Stun)
7. Focus (target) Leap and Gnaw Ghoul macro
8. Windows Button 5 ( Chains of Ice) / modified with shift for Deaht Coil and with ctrl for Pet Deathcoil (healing the pet)
9. Windows Button 4 (Death Grip) / modified with shift for Focus (target) Death Grip
10. Pet Stay
11. Pet Follow (retrieve)
12. Pet Shieldwall (Huddle)
13. Pet Attack
14. Frost Presence (tanking "aura" for when im getting trained by melees)
15. Unholy Presence (dps "aura")
On my mutilate rogue the setup would probably be something like:
1. Select (Left click)
2. Attack (Right click)
3. Zoom In (Mutilate) / Zoom Out (Kidney Shot) / Press (Blind)
rolling them mousewheel to victory
ain't need some other nerd bindings
... jk.
However, the mouse would definitely improve my performance for various mentioned reasons. Especially because I wouldn't have to assign faraway binds (like shift h or things alike).
After seeing the video and reading a bit on the steelseries homepage the mouse seems to be the perfect one for me.

I bought that mouse yesterday... And Im deeply disappointed, but maybe Im missing something and u can help (look at that review! I hope its not a commercial to fool us and buy crap)
The thing is I cant make self/focus keys work with that mouse, making it really useless.
Being a healer its crucial to be able to focus on tank and have another party member selected. Using self and focus keys u can heal 3 persons (including yourself) at the same time, just castin the spells. U recommend that mouse for wow players, have u actually played wow with it? If so, how were u able to make it work??
#showtooltip spellname
/Cast [target=focus] [SpellName]
Make that macro in the menu, and pull it to the specific key...
Or if you want it to be on a certain guy who you do not have focused, just replace focus with target name.
Or to make it simpler for you I would suggest doing as I do:
#showtooltip Spellname
/cast [target=focus,modifier:shift] Spellname
/cast [target=target,nomodifier] Spellname
Casts dispell on my focused if i press shift and click the button
and if I just click button it dispells my target...
Hope this helped, just remember make the macro yourself and pull it to the button in the "new" window you got in keybindings ingame!
