The PAD is a subordinate device to the keyboard mouse
But I've found the controller to be quite fightable even without the Aim Assist, as long as you get the controls right.
How about that with APEX?
If you turn on Aim Assist, you can do 200 damage at times, even if you're not very good at it!
The better you operate the PAD, the more you'll still see.
It's going to look just like the auto-aim that's constantly shooting at your torso.
Aim assist is an extraordinary strength.
