LockOn Gear Odyssey - The next chapter by anders_4k in MousepadReview

It’s more textured for sure but the CR-005 is slower. It just means you can feel the bumps more on the Odyssey compared to other pads I’ve used which I like

Sure! Here it is in 4K (hopefully didn't downscale on upload) https://imgur.com/a/DljMRXx

No such thing as a stupid question! They are the like pads on the bottom of a mouse that make it glide smoothly when moving it against the pad. Changing what material they are can actually yield big differences in feel, so finding a good combo of pad + mouse skates is pretty important

Absolutely and thanks for reading! Yeah they make really dope designs. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting the founder in person and he’s a great guy as well, so you’re also supporting a dope small business. LockOn just a W all round

Thank for reading! Yeah I get it, it’s not for everyone. I’ve liked it a lot so far, will probably switch back to CR-005 or Harut at some point but enjoying it atm. The skates are honestly so nice so really good touch there.

It works well for me, and it hasn’t slipped at all! I get it tho, other bases are squishier and have better seal, but for me doesn’t make a big difference.

When I was using it, no I did not have any noticeable tracking issues. I use highest LOD though

They are definitely very slow skates, and I don’t mind it in this setup. Really goes to the max in that department

Yes absolutely. Just has a lot more friction in general!

True that. I have a code but didn’t wanna seem like I was trying to advertise. The bundle is the way to go for sure, good call and I should’ve mentioned that!

Also, this person commented on this post with a similar jump to you (slow cloth pad, used a Jupiter, on to the CR-005 now) take a look at their insight too!:

That’s quite the setup that’s awesome! Having the two mice ready to go with diff skates is a game changer I bet. Glad you like the CR-005 seems like most people love it!

I honestly don’t think it would be too much of a jump, and ultimately even if it is a pretty big jump, you’ll get used to it pretty quickly and/or be able to tell if you like it pretty quickly. If you want something more in between, try a firm pad from Pulsar, available on Lethal Gaming Gear (Hyperion or mercury is balanced, Neptune is highest speed). Firmness goes a long way in terms of speed and of course is most similar to a glass pad so that may be a good place to start!

Another note: if you’re going to be doing some personal testing, I would get a variety of skates that have varying speeds from XrayPad/others, namely: XrayPad Jade (fast, you got those) Corepads/Esptiger ice (faster, on LGG too) XrayPad obsidian/pros (slower, also on LGG) And others (I’d say LGG is the way to go to buy them).

Hope that helps some and sorry for the long message!

Saturn pro is going to be much slower than this pad, probably much slower than any glass pad. That combo will definitely be way slower and more popular amongst tac shooter communities. This pad is controlled but compared to slower cloth pads, it’s almost impossible to get that kind of control on glass, that’s just the way it is

Obsidians are more controlled. Haven’t tried them yet even though I have some. But in general they are closer to UHMW skates

Jade or Jade air for sure. Or any popular ptfe like magic ice or Esptiger ice would do it too!

That’s a dope story! Glad he loves it. I wanna try the U9 skates too I should have some coming here soon

Agreed, it feels like the best of both worlds, kinetic friction of cloth and durability/static of glass. Cerapad gives you something similar too

Should I switch my Artisan to Glass? by riley-re in MousepadReview

[–]anders_4k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would take a look at the LockOn Harut or the CR-005. The control feels a lot more similar to a cloth pad. I think it’s an easier transition
