in The Chronicles of Spellborn

I made a post a little while back basically stating that I wasn't going to play this game because it required you to control it with WASD.  I was really interested in the game though and I was thinking about other games that may handle the same, so I went looking for a gaming mouse with more buttons or something. 

I found this "thing" at Best Buy that isn't a mouse, because you still use your mouse, it's more like a mouse assistant or something...I call it my power glove.  But if you are like me and just can't get down using WASD keys, this may help you enjoy some games you otherwise wouldn't, it's called a Belkin n52te.

By the way, I'm really feeling Spellborn thus far...still contemplating on if I'm going to sub or not.

    I have one of these actually, and yeah it's pretty good. Very comfortable to use and a nice array of options, profiles etc. It's a great alternative to a gameing keyboard.

    I'm not sure how it solves the WASD problem (which I don't personally get btw...) though, it's basically a moulded mini keyboard really... You still have 4 keys for movement.

    I've been using my n52te since day one. I love it.

    I had been using these speedpads since the earlier version that only had two rows of buttons. I was having some issues with wrist pain and the speedpad let me continue playing without damaging my wrist. Now I'm hopelessly addicted. The macro features really help a lot in some games that have repetitive tasks.

    Its cool you found it and like it. It works perfectly with Spellborn. Since the game requires very few keys, all I needed was R, X, and F mapped in addition to WASD.

    It solves the WASD problem with the joystick on the side.  I just binded the joystick WASD and move with it.
