Best Apex Legends Sensitivity: Pro eDPI, DPI & FOV
Apex is a fast battle royale, but its top players still run controlled sensitivities — and the same 0.022 yaw as CS2. Here is what pros use, how FOV plays in, and how to find your setting.
Apex Legends mixes tracking-heavy gunfights with fast movement, so pros land slightly higher than tactical-shooter players — but not by much. Because Apex is a Source-engine descendant it uses the same 0.022 yaw as CS2, which means your Counter-Strike sens transfers 1:1 at the same DPI.
What sensitivity do Apex pros use?
Verified Apex pros sit overwhelmingly at 800 DPI with eDPI mostly between 800 and 1100 — a touch higher than CS2 to keep up with close-range tracking and quick repositioning. As always, eDPI (DPI × sens) is the number to compare, not the raw slider.
| Player | DPI | Sens | eDPI |
|---|---|---|---|
| reps | 800 | 1.1 | 800 |
| ImperialHal | 800 | 1.1 | 880 |
| Albralelie | 800 | 1.0 | 800 |
| Hardecki | 800 | 1.2 | 960 |
What is a good Apex sensitivity for beginners?
Start at 800 DPI with an in-game sens of 1.0–1.3 (roughly 800–1040 eDPI). That gives you enough speed to track strafing enemies up close while staying controllable at range. If your tracking feels jittery, drop it; if you cannot whip around to a flanker, nudge it up.
Does FOV change my Apex sensitivity?
No — your turn speed (cm/360) is the same at any FOV. But a higher FOV makes targets look smaller and appear to move faster, so many Apex players raise sens slightly at high FOV to keep the feel. Apex measures FOV vertically, unlike CS2 and Valorant, which matters when you compare numbers across games.
How do I match my Apex sensitivity from another game?
- From CS2: keep the exact same sensitivity and DPI — Apex shares the 0.022 yaw, so it is 1:1.
- From Valorant: multiply your sens by ~3.18 (same DPI).
- From Overwatch 2 or Warzone: use the converter — different yaw family.
- Set your FOV separately; it does not affect the conversion.
- Confirm cm/360 matches to be sure the feel carried over.
Once your sens is dialled in, leave it and tune FOV to preference. Check the exact field-of-view trade-off before you change it.
