Apex Legends
Apex Legends sensitivity converter.
Convert a sensitivity from another FPS game into an Apex Legends starting point. The calculator matches a similar cm/360 using common yaw baselines and adjusts for DPI changes.
How This Conversion Works
Apex Legends is commonly treated like other Source-based shooters for hip-fire yaw conversion. If you convert from CS2 at the same DPI, the value is usually close to the same sensitivity. Valorant and Overwatch 2 use different scales, so those values need conversion.
Target sensitivity = source sensitivity x source DPI x source yaw / target DPI / Apex yaw
Apex Conversion Examples At 800 DPI
These examples use 800 DPI in both games. They are useful sanity checks before you test the calculator with your exact DPI.
| Source game | Source setting | Apex sens | cm/360 |
|---|---|---|---|
| CS2 / CS:GO | 1.00 at 800 DPI | 1.000 | 51.95 |
| Valorant | 0.30 at 800 DPI | 0.955 | 54.43 |
| Overwatch 2 | 4.00 at 800 DPI | 1.200 | 43.30 |
| Rainbow Six Siege | 1.10 at 800 DPI | 1.000 | 51.95 |
If Your Apex DPI Is Different
If you keep the same physical turn distance but change mouse DPI, the raw Apex sensitivity changes in the opposite direction. This table converts CS2 1.00 at 800 DPI into Apex at common target DPI values.
| Source setting | Apex DPI | Apex sens | Same baseline |
|---|---|---|---|
| CS2 1.00 at 800 DPI | 400 | 2.000 | 51.95 cm/360 |
| CS2 1.00 at 800 DPI | 800 | 1.000 | 51.95 cm/360 |
| CS2 1.00 at 800 DPI | 1600 | 0.500 | 51.95 cm/360 |
Apex Tuning Scenarios
Apex has more sustained tracking, armor-swap pressure, vertical movement, and wide-angle fights than many tactical shooters. After conversion, test the setting in several real situations instead of only testing a wall flick.
- If close-range tracking feels late, raise the Apex value by a small step.
- If mid-range recoil control feels shaky, lower the value slightly and retest.
- If you changed from 400 to 800 or 1600 DPI, compare cm/360 instead of comparing only raw sensitivity.
- If your ADS or optic sensitivity feels different, tune it separately from hip-fire.
When To Adjust Manually
- ADS sensitivity, FOV, and per-optic settings can change how tracking feels.
- Battle royale fights often require more wide turns than tactical shooters.
- Use the result as a starting point, then tune after real recoil and tracking practice.
Common Questions
Can I copy my CS2 sensitivity into Apex?
CS2 and Apex often use a similar hip-fire yaw baseline, so the same sensitivity at the same DPI can be a reasonable starting point. You should still test it with Apex movement, recoil, and FOV.
Why does my Valorant value look different?
Valorant uses a different sensitivity scale, so the raw number should not be copied directly into Apex. Matching cm/360 gives a cleaner baseline.
Should ADS use the same conversion?
No. Treat this as a hip-fire conversion, then tune Apex ADS or per-optic settings separately if your scoped aim feels off.
What should I copy if I only know my eDPI?
eDPI can help inside one game, but it does not translate cleanly across different yaw scales. Use DPI, sensitivity, and cm/360 together when moving into Apex.
