So I recently got myself a brand new laptop, and I've been playing minecraft without a mouse for a while while i've been saving up for a mouse. I'm just wondering if any of you guys could reccomend me a mouse to buy for playing FTB
A mouse

One does not simply use a trackpad for gaming. I personally have a Razer mouse, but Logitech seems to have nice ones.
my mouse cost €10.. As long as it has 2 buttons, a scroll wheel and a USB wire, I'm happy. Oh and not so small as to give me handcramp... I have pretty big hands
If you can afford it, buy Mead's mouse and have a mouse symphony everyday, while you play.
Overpriced, OverHyped, but I love my RAT 7. RAT 9 is the same but wireless. Totally adjustable, but might be out of budget, a really nice mouse could run you upwards of $50, or in the case of the RAT series, for like $100.
Don't forgot to pick up a good mousepad as well. I picked one of the Razer Goliath mats, its like 6 feet across, covers my whole desk width.

I use the 'taint' one described above.
Track ball since forever. Don't need to move the mouse around at all, just the ball on the mouse.

I buy marked down wired USB mouses when I need a new mouse. Nowadays damn near every mouse has the same basic features(two buttons, scroll wheel which works as a button as well), so I just get something cheap and that works.
If you find a good store you can sometimes get old POS gear that actually works just fine for very good prices.(I got a mouse which lasted me three years for five bucks CAD at a "mom and pop" computer equipment store)
I used to use wireless stuff, but the amount of batteries I was going through was insane(and despite the cost, no one was willing to shell out for rechargeable batteries), so I just use wired stuff now.

You don't have to buy a gaming mouse for minecraft, it's not even a proper game... to be honest minecraft as itself is a joke, it's just a sandbox, the survival is dumb as hell.
Just get whatever suits you (as long as it have mouse-wheel). minecraft has nothing to do with mouse features.

Everyones right, u should of just bought a nice mouse that doesnt hurt your hand, where i live u can get one for 5-10 bucks... THEN you should save up for one...
Personally there's 2 things to consider... do you bring your laptop around with you? or is it pretty stationary...
If you bring it around with you a lot? prolly get one of thos mice that "work on any surface" ... they're meh? but its super nice to be able to use it on anything
If you don't i'd pick up a logitech mouse of some sort as thats waht i personally use... but Razer is darn good too.
But honestly, most ppl are right, just get a mouse with 2 buttons and thats all minecraft really needs... my suggestions are assuming you do other things.

the fuck has that got to do with getting a mouse? Did you just see an opportunity to get your "dumb as hell" opinion out that no one gives a shit about?
I love my Razer DeathAdder. Very nice sliding, perfect sensor, adjustable DPI. I also play many FPS games, so i enjoy the fine control that it gives me. The Logitech G400 is also a pretty good one, but i enjoy the way the Razer feels in my hand much better.
Logitech recently made one for MMOs that has a bunch of thumb buttons that can be used for your hotbar. Also the triggers in the left and right buttons are really high quality so they should last a long time for games that are click heavy such as Minecraft. I have one and love it.
