Formula
Apex to CoD formula
CoD sens = Apex sens × 3.333333Apex Legends turns 0.022° per mouse count at sensitivity 1; Call of Duty turns 0.0066°. The ratio of the two, 0.022 ÷ 0.0066, is the multiplier. It holds at any DPI as long as you use the same DPI in both games.
Apex: Apex scopes use per-optic ADS multipliers on top of this value; this converts hipfire.
CoD: Leave ADS sensitivity multiplier at 1.00 with the Relative transition to keep ADS consistent with hipfire.

Converting from
Sensitivity in Apex Legends
Apex Legends runs on a heavily modified Source engine and shares CS2’s 0.022° yaw, so the same number turns the same distance in both. The FOV slider does not change hipfire turn speed, but ADS speed follows each optic’s zoom and can be tuned per optic once hipfire is set.
- Where to set it
- Settings → Mouse/Keyboard → Mouse Sensitivity
- Common range
- 0.9–2 at 800 DPI (26–58 cm/360°)
Converting to
Sensitivity in Call of Duty
Also applies to Warzone, Black Ops 7, Black Ops 6, MW3
Modern Call of Duty uses the same 0.0066° yaw as Overwatch 2 and Destiny 2 for hipfire. ADS speed depends on the ADS multiplier, Monitor Distance Coefficient and whether ADS field of view is Affected or Independent, so leave those at default until hipfire feels right.
- Where to set it
- Settings → Controller/Mouse → Mouse → Mouse Sensitivity
- Common range
- 4–8 at 800 DPI (22–43 cm/360°)
Ranges compared
Where Apex players land in CoD
Competitive Apex players mostly use 0.9–2 at 800 DPI, which converts to CoD 3–6.67. CoD players typically sit at 4–8, so a typical Apex sens lands inside the usual CoD range once converted.
FAQ
Apex to CoD sens questions
How do I convert Apex sens to CoD?
To keep the same feel, multiply your Apex sens by 3.3333. At the same DPI, Apex 1.5 equals CoD 5. If you play CoD at a different DPI, enter both DPIs in the converter above and it compensates.
What is Apex 1.5 in CoD?
Apex 1.5 at 800 DPI is CoD 5 at 800 DPI (exactly 5). Both need 34.6 cm of mouse movement for a full 360° turn.
Is Apex sensitivity the same as CoD?
No. Apex turns 0.022° per mouse count at sensitivity 1 and CoD turns 0.0066°, so the same number in CoD is 3.33× slower. That is why you need to convert.
Where do I change sensitivity in Call of Duty?
Settings → Controller/Mouse → Mouse → Mouse Sensitivity. Leave ADS sensitivity multiplier at 1.00 with the Relative transition to keep ADS consistent with hipfire.
Why does CoD feel different at the converted sens?
The converted value matches your 360° distance exactly, but Apex and CoD use different fields of view and camera setups, so targets can appear to move at a different speed on screen. Make sure mouse acceleration is off in both games and in Windows, then give it a few sessions before tweaking.
