The Orbweaver needs a comeback.

I  have tried many times and failed to like the tartarus.   It really does not work for me and is buggy to the point that I can’t use it on my favorite games.   Why oh why did they discontinue the stable and easy to program Orbweaver with all the useful buttons?   I use every one and never had any use for the scroll wheel.

I suffered through the glue sticky on the palmrest on the orbweaver and have bought 2 on Ebay now for beaucoup bucks.  I will probably continue to do that as long as the Synapse program works for me but they seriously need to bring it back!

I have the non chroma one and been wondering if they will ever make it so I can give them money.  A fun alt to try stuff by azeron. 

When the Orbweaver came out, I bought it instantly. Leaving behind the 15 key Tartarus. That scroll wheel, which I know I’ll never use, and will ruin my current setup, is what’s holding me back from buying this new Tartarus. I’m willing to spend double on a old Orbweaver, just because of that scroll wheel. 

:’ ) I resonate with all the posts here. I am one more of those who prefers to pay for used synapse 2 equipment but continue to use the orbweaver becasuse NO OnE likes the scroll wheel! Not sure why razer developed two more versions of tartarus and forgot about orbweaver which is far superior. 
give me a new orbweaver, Razer, and I will spends lots and lots of $$$ at your website 

I couldn't agree more. Orbweaver needs a comeback. I really can't understand many of the changes to Tartarus. A scroll wheel?! Just get rid of it. And why make it less adjustable? Orbweaver was awesome with its adjustability to your handsize. I'm still using it after 10 years. It's falling apart a bit but it still blows anything else out of the water. The rubber sheet on the palm rest slid off, I glued it back, etc. I'm even considering asking razer if I can pay them to repair the two buttons that has broken down, that I can't fix myself.

Bring back the Orbweaver please. I really don't like the scroll wheel on the Tartarus v2, its buggy and bad. That or make a Tartarus that’s more adjustable and DOES NOT have a scroll wheel.

i realy need the orbweaver the mouse on the tartarus is useless i have one on my mouse why the hell do i need one on the other one aswell

orbweaver for the win #BRINGBACKTHEORBWEAVER

I am personally able to open the switches whenever they start breaking down and double click/dont respond and replace the innards to keep using the same keypad i bought almost a decade ago. but when the electronics go i’m gonna be SOL.

An update would indeed be nice, i’ve tried the tartarus and i definitely prefer the orbweaver.

An updated version would be nice so i can finally get rid of synapse 2.0 😂

Tired of being bound by Synapse 2.0 as well as having to give my money to ebay resellers (because I need to have an orbweaver for each of my 3 PCs). If Razer gives us a new Orbweaver, I will happily give them my money instead, and upgrade my keyboards and mice while I am at it!

My money is yours for the taking Razer :D

#neworbweaverplease

I finally broke down and got the tartarus. It’s nice, but it doesn’t have the extras, especially with the ergonomics of the orb. 

Can’t blame you at all! Although I will try to keep my hopes up for a while longer :,)

Definitely we are waiting for this comeback

You have strong preferences for the Orbweaver, and I can see why—better polling, onboard memory, and a more ergonomic design would definitely make it feel more premium. The Tartarus, on the other hand, seems to have some design flaws that didn’t sit well with you, like the high wrist rest, unergonomic thumbstick, and lack of the 20th key. It’s unfortunate that the Orbweaver is no longer in production, but your feedback could definitely resonate with others who feel the same about the Tartarus!

I totally agree—the Orbweaver had a great design and really stood out. A comeback with improved ergonomics, better key switches, and a more functional thumb-stick would be amazing. Maybe if enough people show interest, we could see an upgraded version in the future! 🔥 By the way, while looking up gear prices, I also came across some great cookout prices—might be time to plan a BBQ too!

It sounds like you’re really passionate about the Orbweaver Chroma, and I can see why—its design and functionality seem to fit your needs far better than the Tartarus. Your feedback about the wrist rest, thumbstick, and missing 20th key is valid, especially for users who prioritize ergonomics and tactile feedback. It’s interesting how many people buy the Tartarus, and I agree that the lack of Orbweaver availability might be a big reason for that. Hopefully, Razer considers reviving the Orbweaver with modern updates like 1000Hz polling and onboard memory. Your insights are definitely valuable for anyone comparing the two!

I totally agree—the Orbweaver Chroma was an outstanding device, and it’s a shame it hasn’t been refreshed with modern features like 1000Hz polling and onboard memory. The Tartarus just doesn’t compare, especially with the missing 20th key and that unnecessary scroll wheel. Maybe Razer should take a hint from the demand and bring back the Orbweaver with some ergonomic improvements. On a side note, I wish finding a good gaming keypad was as easy as picking a favorite drink prices from the https://starbucksmenuwithprices.com/

Still got the same Orbweaver I had from release, it's well past it's prime and it's been fixed 6 times so far, spilled drink, cable tore, switches died, grip came off and so on, but I'll keep this thing running til the day I die. The tartarus is okay, however,  if the orbweaver didn't exist, it would be amazing, but we had such a brilliant piece of tech that got replaced by a significant let down and now it'll always be second best.

My heart goes out to the people with the correct opinion, orbweaver needs a revival
