21 inch Asus monitor, Cyborg RAT 9 gaming mouse, Razer headset and an old Dell keyboard... lol never really felt compelled to get a high end keyboard.
Keyboards are all mostly the same. My rule is to go for comfort, everything else is usually an excuse to get more money out of the consumer. When I think about it, keyboards even seem a bit archaic.
Never understood trying to cram more and more buttons under a single digit (especially the thumb of your mouse hand) I'm pretty sure (just an opinion ) that it's 'inefficient'.
Still looking for a mouse that has 2 extra buttons that are comfortable to strafe with. Then movement is all solely right hand, skills solely left. This kinda falls down in gw2 where you need dodge too. Game pad might be the way to go though not quiet a neat fit.
(still got a G15 logitech as reserve, but i doubt the BlackWidow will ever break down) BlackWidow takes a while to get used to as it's a mechanical keyboard, but once you get used to it, it's alot faster, wouldn't want to miss it anymore).

If your looking for just 2 extra buttons on a mouse have a look at the Cyborg RAT 9 or even RAT 7 if you preffer wired. Highly customizable and looks great too but can be a bit pricey like most gaming equipment...
Just a plain ol keyboard and mouse. :P Nothing fancy I guess.
Same. Microsoft keyboard and optical mouse, both wired.
I found out that the best way to play GW2 for me is to disable the "double tap" dodge (which is utterly annoying for jump puzzles anyway) and to bind dodging on the middle (scroll wheel) button. For movement, the classic "Doom/Quake" ZQSD (WASD on English keyboard) move forward/back/strafe setup.

Logitech G13 Gaming Keypad and a 7 button Logitech Gaming Mouse.
I'm considering a mouse with more side buttons, but my current set up is capable and comfortable. One mouse side button is Shift+, which I use to modify the 6-10 skills to use Shift+1, Shift+2, etc... Dodge is on the second side mouse button. Everything else is on the G13 and I use the G13's thumbstick for movement.
Out of curiosity, do you guys really manage to remain precise with a mouse with side buttons? I've tried some and I found it very unreliable, at best, I prefer the buttons on the top so when you press them the mouse isn't "pushed" sideways.

Honestly, I don't use all the buttons on the Naga. Some feel akward to get to. I'm 6'2" and of course my hands (thumb) are a bit large. I feel I'm struggling to reach back on some of them. I use the top 2 rows primarily all the time and the other 2 rows are more for utility functions like keymapping my map or journal, opening my bags, etc.
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
Logitech G9X mouse, G19 keyboard and I might dust off my G13 gameboard I never got used to because my hands are too small but having less skills to keybind in GW2 than in other mmo's it might work for me.
Played it with my friend's g700 last BWE, thinking of buying a g600 in a few days... I don't have a gaming mouse now and a g700 is almost twice the price of a g600 in aus... (I can buy both online, but they're almost the same price, so I think i'll try the g600 with their multiple buttons and then trade it if I don't like it...)
Yes, I am a Logitech fangirl. They have yet to fail me and their customer service has been absolutely amazing over the years.
Just wondering, when a logitech product fails you, you just go to them right away rather than the retailer, right? I'm planning on buying a g600 mouse online so a bit worried IF the product end up breaking...
Whoever made this cheap keyboard..I don't see a logo on it. Less than 20 bucks, almost certainly. Too bad I can't pull that indestructible PS2 keyboard out of the garage.
Mouse is still an old classic G5.
Self-pity imprisons us in the walls of our own self-absorption. The whole world shrinks down to the size of our problem, and the more we dwell on it, the smaller we are and the larger the problem seems to grow.

G700 mouse. Microsoft Elite keyboard (this baby has served me well for over 10 years now).
Also have a pinnicle profile set up for my xbox controller for casual DEing, which I may or may not use.

I plan to use Dragon Speak because I like to pretend that I'm Harry Potter announcing all of my spells as I cast them.
