@Mast3rMirror800 dpi, 1 ingame
(= 2@400dpi)
P.S. 110 ingame fov (affects turning rate, so relevant)
As a very rough rule of thumb (800 dpi values):
0.5-1.5 sens for arm-only aiming style (wrist relaxed and stationary (not turning) most of the time)
1.5-5 for mixed arm-wrist style (general movements with arm, microadjustments with wrist)
>5 for wrist only style (stationary arm, all movements from the wrist - not a good idea for fps)
It's not something forced, you'll just feel you start adjusting with your wrist when you up your sensitivity (or vice versa - you'll feel your wrist becomes less and less useful, when you go down in sensitivity). Some ppl don't mind it, but most probably can't do it effectively (it's just so many more variables).
When you change from 1 style to another, you'll definitely need some time (days, maybe weeks) to adjust until it's comfortable enough for you to judge if you like it or not.

Doing 400 dpi at 3.0. When I started this game it was 400 dpi @ 1.8. I was trying to imitate my CSGO setup but it eventually became clear that their were too many differences and a sensitivity that low just wasn't going to cut it with Apex.
In retrospect it was not wise to try and do a straight copy from an esport. BRs inherently lack the readable component that allows you to deduce the location of ALL of your opponents through map knowledge and game sense. Here you can't rule out threats from behind just because your teammate is watching and you can't fixate your aim on the 1-3 possible openings that the enemy can emerge from.
The movement speed speed of players and the extra emphasis on vertical environments gives added purpose for that higher sens. And flickshotting is no longer just for enemies; you're kind of doing the same thing a lot when you're trying to minimise your time spent looting.
I can't remember my FoV but I think I'm around 90. I know from forcing a 4:3 ratio in CS that I'm a more confident shot when I can see the centre of my view just that little bit more clearly. The results that I immediately started producing proved that the benefits clearly outweighed the loss of overall view. Here I figured I would try something similar by keeping a still fairly narrow FoV but with a 1080p res. I'm sort of meeting in the middle because of the BRs open nature.

i am atm run 800 DPI with 2.5 . 1.0 seems to be ok but I have other issues like playing with randoms that make my blood rage . I am gold 4 atm sitting on 3000 PR but with randoms I feel like I have to abandon them because they have 0 chances to play smart while enemy teams are all pro stick as 3 cover eachother like pro army . I don't get why I am so unlucky . so far only 15 wins in seasons 3 of course all with randoms

@Mast3rMirror I'm abandoning everyone I play with at the moment, as well. Ha ha ha! Anarchy! 🙌
