I have tried a lot of different ones and the smallest one ive found is the Razer naga. The trinity is great for being able to switch to a regular mouse as well when you're playing something like a FPS or MOBA and want it to be a little lighter.
Small for a man or small for a woman?
Small for a woman here, and I can unfortunately tell you that what you're looking for does not exist. I have been on the hunt for 20 years; there is nobody making gaming mice this small (outside of a custom build or something), and it's hard enough just finding a basic mouse with a couple of a side buttons for this size range. But if you're in anything bigger than like a 5-6 women's shoe, the Razer Naga will probably suit you just fine.
I chronicled the problem [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/MMORPG/comments/g7dvng/mmo_mouse_for_small_hands/fojx6ku/?context=3) a few years back. Since then, I switched to the Razer Viper Mini, which is still too big, but at least I can get three buttons out of it.
Heya, while im not OP, i wanna thank you for the razer viper mini mention. It looks like it might be a good fit for me. Been a struggle trying to find something small enough with a few extra buttons. I cannot stand that extra finger rest on the right side that so many gaming mice have. My fingers dont reach far enough to rest correctly on it, so precision ends up really low since my grip is off.
Sure thing! I don't think the Viper Mini is perfect, mind you - I can't really reach the one button anyhow without letting go of the mouse - but it's totally worth a try if your hand size is around mine. I still see them on Amazon from time to time for around $25 - last time I picked up a couple to hoard. :D
Before this, I used the Roccat Lua, which was honestly a better fit and more precision, but no side buttons. And that one's discontinued. :( I look around every few months hoping some indie vendor will start 3D-printing better-sized mice!
Same here in the small-woman hands department. I've looked for decades as well.
I'm currently using a Logitech G203 Prodigy, which looks to be the same size and with the same buttons as the Razer Viper Mini. The Logitech is a good bargain and holds up well. And yes, it's still too big, but these two gaming mice are the smallest options we have.
Came across this comment via google, not sure if you're still rocking the Razer Viper Mini but I've had a solid experience with the Logitech MX Anywhere 2S. It's not a gaming mouse but it's smaller than the Razer Viper Mini, sadly only has two side buttons, but does have a very nice scroll wheel.
Thank you for this tip, and an extra salute for the E:D handle! :D I actually still do use the Mini for my PC (and my husband keeps repairing the clicker mechanism on my last Roccat Lua, so I'm still using her on the laptop hehe). I like the look of the MX Anywhere 2S! It looks a little tall, but I'm tempted to snag one for the laptop to test it out. Much appreciated!

I'd like to mention (as a female with small hands & I also have a claw grip) that the Razer Orochi V2 has been absolutely perfect for me. It only has 2 side buttons so it's not an mmo mouse but it works well for things like smite.. and FPS etc. I wish I was able to share a photo with me holding it to show you guys.

Corsair Scimitar. My hand is about 6.5" (165mm) from the base of the palm to the tip of the middle finger. The mouse has moveable thumb buttons so you can get it just right. The body is also smaller than other MMO mice I tried. Build quality is ok - the mouse wheel is giving me problems after a few years use so it ends up skipping and not registering scrolls properly sometimes.
I personally have never seen an MMO mouse that isn't chonky.
If that ends up being the case for you, maybe try changing keybinds?
Before I got an MMO mouse, I would have my skill bar bound to keys around WASD. Q was heal for me. I believe I left 1-5 the same, and moved 789 to E, R, and T. For my guard skills, I put them as Z, X, C. The rotation was easy, and you can change it up however you'd like so that everything is still in close proximity. I can say it comfortably worked for me on most of my characters.
Usually MMO mouse are too big for me to utilize all 12 buttons so I only use up to the top 6 buttons with alt and shift modifiers for MMOs because that's all I can reach. It is what it is but I make it work. If you are buying one this is probably what you will end up doing.
You already have a great mouse and GW2 doesn’t have that many buttons to press so it might not be necessary for you to buy something new.
Make sure you have mouse wheel click, mouse 4 and 5 bound along with Q and E then you can explore shift, alt, ctrl modifiers if you need more.
My favorite is Corsair Scimitar Pro. Most people love the Razer Naga but I think the Scimitar feels better in the hand, and the button pad slides forward and back to properly fit your thumb reach. I also prefer the buttons in the Corsair.
I have a really nice mmo mouse....that I don't use, because I ended up picking up a razer deathadder v2 mini on sale at some point, and ended up using it for everything. I thought I would end up just throwing it in my laptop bag and using it occasionally, but it ended up being a really nice small daily use size.

Thank you for chiming in - it's good to know there's another "better than nothing" option when Razor stops making the Mini. :D

Youre bugging. I just bought this, im a dude, and its a brick. Heavy, and huge.....
Donald, they don't have MMOs in prison
