Eh, kinda. The optical reds are apparently rated for 45g, as are my gateron reds on my Q1. I just remember the switches on the huntsman feeling super smooth. The silvers in my tester kit are pretty dang smooth with just a bit of resistance. Might go for some of those since the pinks feel just a bit too touchy and the crystal reds / choc pro reds feel pretty similar to the silvers.

    Do you know if there’s any diff between the pro reds and crystal reds aside from housing material and stem color? I have them side by side here and can’t really figure it out. Same with the pinks and blue robins.

    I played around with a Huntsman Mini a bit in my local Micro Center and loved how smooth the linear optical reds felt. They had just the right amount of resistance too. The choc reds I'm using in my sofle right now feel too heavy and cumbersome to me at 50g. I want a switch that feels smoother and is slightly easier to depress. Got myself a switch tester from aliexpress but I'm still having a hard time deciding. The only two switches that I don't have in my tester are the Purpz and the Sunsets. Not really interested in tactile though and I'm pretty sure the Purpz would be too light for my liking.

    On paper I'd think the silvers would be fairly close but in reality, it doesn't feel that much lighter than the reds, even though it's 10g lighter. Plus, I know the tester can only get me so far and that a whole board of switches is going to feel vastly different than a single switch. Thoughts, advice? Thanks!

     

    Which is your preferred thumb key for space and return on the sofle? Default has return on the left and space on the right. I've been using it opposite for a bit with space on the left and was liking that but figured I'd try it out in the default config for a bit. Not sure which I like more / which one feels more comfortable. What's your preference? Do you use space on the left or the right side? Is there a reason for the enter/return key being on the left and space on the right by default?

     

    Just got a choc Sofle and standard red choc switches along with it (50g weight). Compared to the gateron pro reds I have in my Keychron Q1 they don't feel quite as smooth and snappy. I'd describe them as feeling heavier and sludgy almost... any thoughts on other variants to try? Would choc silvers feel closer to my mx style gpro reds? Pinks seem like they'd be too light... I don't want switches that are too easy to mistakenly activate.

     

    Like my H1 for its footprint but am tired of its thermals. Don’t want the OG meshlicious or the Meshroom because of the shady crap SSUPD pulled with cheating the designer. Was waiting for the FF01 to come out but the Terra came out of nowhere and I’m seriously considering it. It’s a sweet little case and looks great to work in.

    Anybody make the move into a Terra from an H1? If so, do you feel like it was a worthwhile switch despite the loss of desk real estate?

    Caster makes sense. And true, a ranged physical would round things out! Will be interesting to see, that’s for sure! I think it would be cool if we got a physical healer or a melee range magic user. Always wished bards were more bard-y and that we had a heavy armor healer (like a DnD cleric). Guess it would be hard for them to implement a pure support class though and I know Yoshi-P really wants classes to be readily identifiable by their gear. That said, tanks in bikinis don’t really fit that bill so I feel like that’s not even a valid argument anymore.
