While the use of aim assist is controversial in Apex Legends, many players have used it to great effect and many pro players have switched to a controller because of it. Although the best settings for aim assist are up for debate, here are the most common ways people have been able to get the most out of their aim assist settings.

The first setting players should change is their dead zone. Low dead zone is a must as it helps keep the response of player movements snappy. Another setting to keep in mind would be to keep the response curve set to classic while also keeping a lower sensitivity to ensure that aim assist plays a bigger role in firefights.

Here is a classic guide.

• Look Sensitivity: Default [3]
• Look Sensitivity: Default [3]
• Response Curve: Classic
• Look Deadzone: None
• Movement Deadzone: Small
• Inverted Look: Off
• Vibration: Off
