Best Warzone sensitivity (controller & mouse)

Quick answer
The right Warzone sensitivity isn't the fastest, it's the one you've mastered. Controller starting point: 6/6 (~1.6) with an ADS multiplier ~0.85. On mouse: 800 DPI and an in-game sensitivity around 5-7. Find your value, then stop changing it: consistency beats speed.
The best sensitivity is not the fastest: it's the one you've mastered and keep. Here are solid starting points, to tune to your feel. For the rest of your aim, see our controller settings.
Controller sensitivity
- Horizontal / vertical: 6/6 (~1.6) to start.
- Too high = unstable aim; too low = slow reactions. Aim for the point where you're most consistent.
ADS sensitivity
- ADS multiplier: around 0.85, just below 1:1 — slightly slower aim = more precision at range.
- Keep the same multiplier across all zoom levels for a consistent feel from scope to scope.
Mouse sensitivity
- DPI: 800 (the esports standard).
- In-game sensitivity: around 5-7. The goal: a comfortable 180° without lifting the mouse every two seconds.
- Monitor distance coefficient: keep it consistent so ADS sensitivity follows the same logic at every zoom.
How to find YOUR sensitivity
- Start from the values above.
- Play several matches without touching them.
- Adjust in small steps if you overshoot targets (too high) or react slowly (too low).
- Once found: stop changing it. Consistency is what makes you improve.
