Apex and Destiny 2 values cross-checked against independent sources on 20 October 2026.
How do I convert Apex sensitivity to Destiny 2?
To convert Apex sensitivity to Destiny 2, multiply it by 3.3333. Apex turns 0.022° per mouse count and Destiny 2 turns 0.0066°, so Apex 1.5 becomes Destiny 2 5. Keep the same DPI and both settings take 34.6 cm of mouse movement for a full turn.
- Find your Apex sensitivity in Settings → Mouse / Keyboard → Mouse Sensitivity.
- Multiply it by 3.3333, or type it into the converter above with your DPI.
- In Destiny 2, open the Look Sensitivity option in the Controls settings and enter the result.
- Keep the same mouse DPI, or enter your new DPI in the converter.
Going the other way, a typical Destiny 2 setting of 6 is Apex 1.8, or 28.9 cm per 360° at 800 DPI.
Rounding your Destiny 2 sensitivity
Destiny 2 only accepts whole numbers. Apex 1.5 converts to 5, so you would type 5, which turns —% slower than your Apex aim. To make it exact, keep 5 and set your mouse to 800 DPI in Destiny 2.

Why Apex and Destiny 2 numbers differ
Apex Legends runs on Source (modified) and Destiny 2 on Tiger engine. Destiny 2 numbers are 3.33× larger than Apex numbers for the same hand movement, because Destiny 2 turns less per mouse count.
Apex shares the Source-engine 0.022 yaw, so hipfire sensitivity is identical to CS2. ADS uses separate per-optic multipliers. Apex Legends grew out of the engine Respawn built for Titanfall 2, a heavily modified version of Source, which is why it kept Source’s 0.022 yaw.
Why does my converted sensitivity feel different?
- Field of view: a wider FOV makes the screen appear to move slower even at the same cm/360.
- Scoped and ADS aim: this matches hipfire only. Check Destiny 2’s own zoom settings.
- Mouse acceleration: if Windows acceleration or a mouse app adds it, the same movement turns a different amount depending on speed. Turn it off.
