Valorant to Apex Sens Converter (and Apex to Valorant)

Apex Legends and Valorant could hardly play more differently: one is a fast battle royale with drawn-out fights, the other a tactical shooter where the first clean hit often decides the round. Your hand still shouldn’t have to relearn how far a turn goes every time you switch. That’s what a Valorant to Apex sens conversion is for. This page gives you a two-way converter, charts for 800 and 1,600 DPI, and everything Apex adds on top: the ADS multiplier, per-optic settings and the FOV slider that Valorant doesn’t have at all.

Valorant to Apex sens converter (and back)

Choose a direction, enter your sens and DPI, done. When you switch direction, the result moves into the input field automatically – so you can see that Apex 1.273 turns straight back into Valorant 0.4. The converter uses hipfire sens, i.e. without aiming down sights or through an optic.

The formula: Apex uses the CS scale

Apex Legends descends from the Source engine and turns the camera exactly as far per mouse count as Counter-Strike: 0.022° at sens 1.0. Valorant sits at 0.07°. That gives you the whole formula:

1. Valorant → Apex: Apex sens = Valorant sens × 0.07 ÷ 0.022 = Valorant sens × 3.1818.
2. Apex → Valorant: Valorant sens = Apex sens × 0.3143.
3. Apex ↔ CS2: factor 1. Your Apex sens goes into CS2 unchanged, and vice versa.

Both yaw values are measured standard values, not official figures from Riot or EA. They do line up across senslab.pro, game-sens.jor.dev and a measurement on the mouse-sensitivity.com forum, where 10,000 counts at Apex sens 1.636364 produced exactly one 360° turn – a precise match for 0.022°.

To double-check, work out the turn distance: cm/360 = 360 ÷ (DPI × sens × yaw) × 2.54. Apex 2.0 at 800 DPI gives 360 ÷ (800 × 2.0 × 0.022) × 2.54 = 26.0 cm, and Valorant 0.629 at 800 DPI also gives 26.0 cm.

Valorant to Apex sens chart (800 and 1,600 DPI)

The first chart covers a wide range from very slow to fast Valorant values. The cm/360 applies to both games, because the conversion keeps exactly that hand distance constant.

At 1,600 DPI you need half the in-game sens for the same distance. Valorant 0.25 at 1,600 DPI equals 0.5 at 800 DPI and lands at 0.795 in Apex.

Looking across the columns, Valorant 0.15 to 0.8 at 800 DPI corresponds to roughly 0.48 to 2.55 in Apex. If you play Apex much faster than that, the Valorant value you get may feel twitchy for precise headshots – more on that in the switching section.

Apex to Valorant sens chart

For the reverse direction, here are common Apex values. The Valorant sens applies at the same DPI; the two right-hand columns show your 360° distance at 800 and 1,600 DPI.

So Apex 1.5 at 800 DPI becomes Valorant 0.471 with 34.6 cm per turn. At 1,600 DPI the Valorant sens stays the same (0.471), but the turn is only half as long – always make sure you keep the DPI you used in Apex.

ADS & optics: what you set separately in Apex

The 3.18 factor only carries over hipfire sens. As soon as you aim, each game uses its own settings that aren’t part of the conversion:

Community tools describe Apex’s per-optic zoom scaling in different ways, so we deliberately don’t list fixed 1:1 values per optic here. The safe route: start at 1.0 in Apex, start at 1.0 in Valorant, and only fine-tune after a few rounds.

Valorant has fewer zoom levels than Apex. The Vandal and Phantom zoom 1.25× when aiming, the Guardian 1.5×. At the default of 1.0, a movement to the edge of the screen feels the same zoomed and unzoomed. If you want to carry over the feel right at the crosshair instead, the math lands at about 0.870 for 1.25× and 0.815 for 1.5× zoom.

Apex FOV: does it change your sens?

Not your turn distance. Apex lets you set the field of view freely: EA lists 70 as the default, and 90 to 110 is common in competitive play. The hipfire conversion is independent of it – a 360° turn in Apex depends only on sens, DPI and the 0.022 yaw. A higher FOV does make movement on screen look slower, because more of the world fits into view.

Valorant, on the other hand, has a fixed 103° horizontal field of view at 16:9 and no FOV slider. Community measurements indicate that Apex’s FOV value refers to a 4:3 image; mathematically, an Apex FOV of about 86 to 87 matches Valorant’s view (not officially confirmed). If you play Apex at 104 or 110, Valorant will look noticeably tighter. That’s normal, not a conversion error.

Tips for switching between Apex and Valorant

In Apex you often track targets for longer, while Valorant rewards short, precise corrections at head height. Your converted sens may therefore feel too fast in Valorant at first. Start with the exact value anyway and adjust afterwards:

1. Convert exactly: Use the converter above with your real mouse DPI, not a guess.
2. Test over several sessions: Play a few sessions at the same cm/360 before changing anything. Muscle memory needs repetition.
3. Adjust in 5% steps: If it’s too fast, go from 0.47 to 0.45, for example, rather than straight to 0.35.
4. Warm up: Our aim trainer runs right in your browser – handy for testing the new sens before your first match.
5. Check your input settings: There’s nothing to toggle in Valorant anymore – the Raw Input Buffer has been permanently on since patch 11.06. More in our Raw Input Buffer article.
