Hey, i am buying myself a new set of peripherals, i have already decided on the Ducky Shine 2 with blue switches. I am now struggling on choosing a mouse. I use a claw grip and game for hours on end so it will need to comfortable. I play RPGs and MMOs so macro buttons would be nice. I would also prefer wireless with charging (not batteries) but not too bothered if its wired. I play on a 22" 1080p monitor so do not need huge DPI. My price range is anything up to £100.

For that many hours I'd do wired.  Lots a buttons....just go with your logo lol.  Go with M95 Mouse, I can definitely recommend that one.  I use an M65 but only because I don't need all the buttons the M95 comes with.

I use Logitech G9x. It doesn't really have a bunch of macros but it's a very popular mouse that I find awesome.

You have loads of different options.

 

Razer Naga is a nice small mouse which can be used in a claw grip with lots of buttons

Logitech G700(s) also a very nice mouse with lots of buttons, again quite small so good for claw grip and is also wireless.

Corsair Vengeance (any of them) also an option.

Logitech G9x, a popular choice among claw grippers

Theres loads more but dont need to list them :c

The annoying thing is a few months ago i bought a Corsair M90 and its faulty but to rma it i would have to send it to USA and i live in the UK.

 

Definitely get something you can RMA locally unless the failure rate is super low like a Ducky Shine II keyboard, their stuff just works.  Rare is the case where I've heard of one RMA'd.
