Thanks for sharing, Wattson. A bunch of stuff helped but biggest was the toggle vs hold zoom. Had no idea how hard I was gripping my mouse and what it did to my aiming stability. Even won the first ranked game I played after switching, stoked 🤙

[@asdfag557]

Thanks man , the tip to change sense by magnification really helped me track better , also i removed hit marker and now it feels so much better and easier to track enemies , i didnt wanna change it as i thought maybe if im in bangalore smoke i can beam someone but its useless setting .

[@rylul9519]

Hit marker for me help a lot during hipfire.

[@chefr6210]

I been maining apex for like a year and a half at this point, I play between 2.3-2.7 on 400 dpi and I been using per optic settings ever since I started maining apex, never realized people didn’t

Great vid bro!

thanks you for the setings it so much helps me :D

[@petercruz1993]

Thanks for this bro

[@secretAZNman_]

very helpful!

[@wuchen1712]

I started playing apex a month ago and hated the game because my aim was trash. I tried these sensitivity settings and played with them a bit, i got instant change in my aim i was shocked the improvement is huuuuuge thanks a lot.

[@OmgitsAntonio]

i changed cycle weapon to caps lock from scroll down and it has been a game changer, mind you i have died a lot getting use to it.

[@NonnyStrikes]

You're right about the peroptic being goated man. I try going back to norm and just can't.

[@squanchy7643]

I put battery on Q and shield cell on Z. Works well and I don't have the delay switching between meds.

good idea

[@haydenbeard123]

ur goated bro

[@ShadowQrow]

I think my weirdest keybind is that I use 4 for selecting my heal item but then I have 4 also mapped to a side mouse button to use the heal item lol. Idk why but I found that to be really intuitive for me.

[@Joltasaur]

Interesting that you don’t have a cycle weapon keybind set different than the default number keys. Is it easy and muscle memory to hit your buttons for guns at this point? I’m just switching to KBM so I’m trying to find what works best for me! Great video

[@hypnotic_o]

most players don’t use a cycle weapons keybind. just stick to 1 and 2

[@donniepierce2293]

1 2 and 3 for holster is comfy af no point in seperate binds for those.

[@anthonywright5275]

Uses aim toggle!? Mind Blown 🤯🤯

[@skinscalp222]

Gnaske, SirDel, Yuki, MaxStrafe, all really good MnK players off the top of my head use aim toggle as well. It's probably only worse (compared to hold) for shotguns, honestly.

[@infinity1283]

copied these settings and had the best game of my life. thank you so much for these settings king.

[@Maxim.Nazarenko]

Thanks.

[@hazachak6613]

thx

[@rakeshdas7478]

any moment tips ? wattson

[@SKiPER210397]

Dude, more guides pleeease

[@chishingchan6069]

Very good setting. Just WIN a game in Platinum using one night switch from Hold ADS to Toggle. Hold Crouch also make you more active on movement. I just added Q to cycle weapon , very good for me.

[@lyserberg]

I play on roller but watched the video nonetheless king.

[@swaveyqua9721]

Lol i feel like i have weird binds when i watch other people settings, i have my run and crouch on the 2 side buttons, got ping on Q nd my tactical on the scroll wheel. Use heals with F nd interact with E, inventory on shift, melee on caps lock, map on tab. Alternate interact on 1 nd shii like heat domes nd stuff on left alt but honestly those binds too me are just perfect for me even if they probably do seem weird lol

[@Flutewala..]

Please make acue counrol sitting.!

[@abdur1300]

0:08 in my opinion, wattson' facial expression looks like a tough soldier from Wagner mercenary group or some russian bandit.. nobody ever thought of him as a professional gamer or content creator.. But the looks could be deceiving

[@warrenvaughan5050]

I love your humour 😂

[@nochillplayce]

Use 5.14 on 32:9 and feel myself good. Tried 3.5 and 6.5 and feel no changes tbh.

EMPTY MEANS NO AMMO AS IN 0 RESERVE NOT U HAVE AN EMPTY CLIP

[@zarethgr6159]

for the superglide is it better to crouch alternate or hold?

[@FathurRahman-zh2st]

imma help to answer that, so to easier using superglide its prefer use hold since u have to press both of the button in perfect timing ( crouch and space)

[@ltchen8327]

It's surprising to see I have almost the exact same keybinds, which I came up with myself. Also, being a cs player and an arm-aimer, "highest sense you can handle" sounds like fucking hell lol. (My sense is only a bit slower than his tho)

[@ltchen8327]

my sens in apex is about twice my sens in cs, is that wierd?

on what Dpi do you play on ?

[@TTk_OniiChan8291]

Hello Back xD

[@davclark6757]

When it comes to sense am I using it wrong? I have the same settings from this but it seems like I turn so slowly I can’t like turn around so quickly

[@alexander_feather]

If you’re having trouble turning quickly, pay attention to what part of your body is doing the turning. Lower sens you’ll have to get used to using your entire arm to 180, your fingers to precisely counter recoil, and only use your wrist for quick adjustments when tracking, following the general direction of the enemy with your arm still. In the long run, reducing the amount of wrist aiming you’re doing will reduce the risk of developing a repetitive strain injury.

[@freespirit0788]

u need to move ur arm faster lol, put ur arm on the desk

[@dualcosmix8421]

[@sushieh7624]

@@MAOTgamini mean its just kinda easier to control recoil in my opinion but its a struggle in close range fights, atleast for me

[@Zencho639]

when you change to 1600 make a video please

[@zenquad]

You had me until the minimap rotation part. I could never understand why would anyone want it off? Its much more logical to have it pointing to the direction you are looking at.

[@_Atlas.]

I don't like it on because every time you glance at it, you have to reorient yourself again based on how you've turned.

[@trash6960]

it's way more consistent to know where you are at no matter where you are looking instead of adjusting everytime you look in a different direction. You lack common sense and game sense

[@McRuffin]

We have the same sens , that’s crazy 😭😂 Edit: (base sens)

can someone please help i have no idea what 1.5/800 means it just feels insanely slow to me

Slow, we are all different, that sens feels way to fast for me😄😅

[@OtherPeople159]

idk how people play aith auto sprint OFF...its hard to keep pressing sprint when u have to press other keys too while intense fight

[@skinscalp222]

Huh? You don't want to keep sprinting in intense fights as there's a delay from sprinting to raising your weapon. As for how hard it is, well the only other key to press on your left pinky is Ctrl, usually for crouching. If you're sprinting you're not crouching, vice versa. So it's really easy to get used to.

[@Nilo_oke]

Where do I change my dpi

[@Senauce]

There are 2 options: First one is that your mouse has dedicated DPI buttons, which would be under the scroll wheel. Second your mouse has a software for example Razer mice have Razer Synapse or Logitech has G Hub to change their DPI and more.

[@alexcastro1839]
