Razer Naga Question


 

Posted

Well, my last mouse died and I decided to go ahead and get myself a Razer Naga. I'm enjoying the setup and the feel of it, but I have a question for those out there who also have one...because something seems off to me.

This feels somewhat complicated to me, so forgive me if this rambles on...

When I enable the Razer Naga Mouse Tray and have the mouse set in the 123 configuration, whatever I place in the first slot in the Mouse Tray will be triggered by either the #1 button on the mouse OR the #1 key from the number row on the keyboard. It doesn't matter if I have the normal Tray set on 1 and the Mouse Tray set on 2; the keyboard and the mouse are now slaved to the Mouse Tray.

However, if I set the mouse into the Numpad setting and go into the Options/Keymapping/Powers and change all the Alt Tray settings to the Numpad...well, this is where I get even more confused. Whatever is now in the Mouse Tray is...activated by the keyboard and the normal tray is activated by the mouse...

...yea, I'm confused.

What I'm trying to so is set it up so I can have Tray 1 be used by the keyboard and Tray 2 used by the mouse (example...on a Archery/TA Corruptor I'd like to control the Archery attacks on the keypad and the TA debuff's on the mouse). I can accomplish this one of two ways:

First by setting the Mouse to Numpad, changing the Keymapping so that Tray Slot 1-10 are now set to Numpad 1-0, changing the Alt Tray Slots from Alt+1 through Alt+10 to 1-0 and it'll work.

Second, by DIS-abling the Razer Naga Mouse Tray, setting the mouse to the Numpad setting, and rekeying the Alt Tray settings to the Numpad settings and putting all of Archery into Tray 1 and all the TA into Tray 2.

This seems...way too complex and I'm wondering if something is wrong here. After all, it would seem logical to me that whatever is showing in the Razer Naga Mouse Tray should..you know, be activated by the mouse and whatever is in the normal tray should be triggered by the keyboard.

Writing this up and working through this, it seems to me that, with the standard Keymapping settings and the Razer Naga Mouse Tray open, the Mouse tray BECOMES the bottom active tray while the Normal Trays are shifted so that the bottom tray is now the Alt tray and one one above that becomes the Ctrl tray.

Is this WAI or is there something wrong here? Or is there something I'm missing? Because as is, either way I now loose the ability to put binds into the majority of the Number Pad because it's being used either way.

I don't have any Razer products myself, but I've heard about it's special mousetray feature with CoH. From what you've said, I would try deleting the mousetray(if possible) and having your Archery powers in tray 1 for the keyboard, and "customizing" the 1-0 buttons of the Razer to be the corresponding key but with alt in front for the TA powers in the 2nd tray.

BTW nice powersets, mine is lv46 . When I respec I'm moving him from Leviathan Mastery Shark Skin&Hibernate to Power Mastery with Power Build Up (which ALSO boosts your TA secondary effects), Temp Invulnerability, Force of Nature and possibly Total Focus for a melee power.
