I would like a mouse with RGB, but if not possible then probably no lighting at all. Optical sensor only. Palm/claw grip as I said. (It seems to be mostly palm but I pick up my mouse a lot because of low DPI/sensitivity in games like CS:GO) I currently have in my possession the Razer death adder and Cosair sabre, I have bought them from best buy just to test them out and see which ones I like and I seem to get a lot of wrist fatigue. I am coming from an ambidextrous microsoft mouse(Just some dinky old mouse). With the Death adder I notice it has some height to it and a rather large bump where it almost makes your hand into a V shape, creasing at the start of your fingers where they connect with your plam, and your plam is sloped somewhat harshly downwards. With the microsoft mouse my whole plam and fingers lay flat on the curvature of the mouse. With the Sabre my hand lays fairly flat until it gets to the middle of the palm where a hump seems to just but into it(Very annoying and fatiguing)

So as I have said, I guess I have a mostly palm but some claw grip hold when faced with low sensitivity. I hope I have described my issuses with these to mice and maybe it's just something I would have to get used to with them over a little bit of time. what are some mice recommendations from you guys?

Not a mouse recommendation but just a thought to pass along:

Do you use any sort of wrist support - ergonometric "pillow" sort of thing?

I now use two support pads: one for my wrists while typing and one for the mouse. Started developing lots of pain and discomfort while typing at work. Problems went away almost immediately.

You do not really need to purchase anything at first. Just use a rolled up towel or washcloth. Bean bags can work. Anything to straighten the arm-wrist line.

May find that having additional wrist support will open up more mouse choices for you.

Find a good "fit" for you and your posture and then buy, if necessary, a commercial product that suits.

"Getting used to it" is likely to end up being damaging.
