Pros & Cons
Pros
It is not too clicky, the key press feels phenomenal, and it is the most sturdy keyboard i have ever bought. Keys are quiet and responsive. They keys are not too loud and it has a bit more spacing so it's perfect for those with big hands.
The roccat vulcan 100 is a beautiful keyboard. Highly, highly recommend, worldly better than corsairs k68, k70 etc. Takes time to get used to as i work from home and type on a keyboard for about 60+ hours a week (this includes chatting in discord with... Read More
Rgb lighting works with razor synapse for rbg effects out of box. Only thing i don't like is that you can't control light intensity when using the aimo intelligent lighting setting. I like a more subdued intensity.
Gamemode provides additional macro keys (the key pool of [ins] [home] etc. This includes when that function is assigned to the fx key using the knob. Liking the keyboard so far, subtracting a point for not being able to change the color of the 3 membr... Read More
Cons

Highlights

Roccat is onpoint with this keyboard design
Packaging/appearance
Love this keyboard the way the keys are protected you dont get random dirt dead skin or random stuff inside the keycaps
Competitiveness
Especially great if paired with a roccat mouse that has aimo for syncing lighting effects and custom functions in the software
Can customize any key and make macros like most competitors
Update since i wrote this commment i’ve been talking to roccat services about returning it
Would be great if they had a tkl variant or sold the switches so i could make my own

I initially brought this keyboard for mmo and the rgb but was half disappointed when they keyboard software swarm lacks macro key binding only allowing you to remap basic and predefined keys
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
At this price point if your paying you should at least have macro key mapping even the cheaper corsair strafe has macro key binding
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
But that said the i will be sticking on with it for now the looks and feel of this keyboard is great with another mmo mouse
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I will update this if this if they include macro for their keyboard
