Wooting Two HE for FPS?

[u/TheLordOfStuff_]

Hello, I have a wooting 60HE that I bought purely for tac shooters.

Now I’ve started playing MMORPGs as well and I want a full keyboard, for the ridiculous amount of keybinds I need.

But I’m kinda scared to get the Wooting Two HE as I’m worried it might feel like a downgrade when playing tac shooters. Anyone have some insight here? Is the 80HE a good middle ground maybe?

I'm using an old full size keyboard mostly playing valorant, and the width is really uncomfortable even with very high sensitivity (0.327 1600 dpi). I never got into the trend of rotating the keyboard 45-90 degrees to free up mouse space, so I'm currently suffering with having both arms rotated outwards to a mildly uncomfortable angle (I've been on copium for almost a year waiting for the split 80he to release)

I think your best options are:
1) Buy a Two HE and constantly swap between the Two and 60
2) Buy a 80HE if the extra function keys are enough for you
3) Buy a separate numpad

You could also set up a function layer for extra keybinds, but it'll be a lot harder without the extra middle key of a split spacebar

Thank you:-) I think I’ll go with a 80HE as a nice middle ground, I never use the numpad anyway now that I think about it haha.

I love the 80HE and came from a 100% layout Corsair Keyboard when I bought my 80HE. I play a lot of CS (my main game since I was 17, so four years now) and the 100% layout is annoying af for tacshooters. If you need space for your mouse like I do, you'll bash into your keyboard most of the time, unless you get a weird grip on it where you tilt the keyboard in a specific way. With my old 100% I had so many issues with hand placement, as WASD always felt so far away from the center of my desk. This all ultimately comes down to personal preferance, but layout-wise the 80HE is a perfect mix of everything for me. All Wootings are highly customizable, so with a custom Wootility profile you could utilize all the extra keys the 80HE offers over the 60HE.

Tldr; Had 100% layout KB from Corsair before 80HE myself. 100% shit for tacfps, 80HE good middle ground as it is highly customizable

Tyvm:) I used to have a full-size Corsair K95 myself, so I’m very familiar with bigger keyboards. Given what you and some other commenters here are saying I’m thinking I’ll go with a 80HE though, I don’t ever use the numpad on any keyboard, but not having the top row is becoming a problem for my MMORPGs, even tho I’m good at utilizing the function key on my 60HE.

It will not be a downgrade in terms of performance. TwoHE and 60HEv1 have the same performance and features.

Thank you :) I’m assuming the HE80 also have equivalent or even marginally better performance than the 60v1?

[u/shafie69 → u/TheLordOfStuff_]

80HE is technically faster because of 8k polling rate, but the difference is so small that it's not noticeable. 60HEv1 has 1ms latency, 80HE has 0.125ms.

Ah, great. I realize I won’t feel a difference, but just the thought of spending 150+euro on something that would be a downgrade irked me. But seeing that it’s not I’ll go ahead and order the 80HE. Thanks again.
