Destiny 2 and Apex values cross-checked against independent sources on 20 October 2026.
How do I convert Destiny 2 sensitivity to Apex?
To convert Destiny 2 sensitivity to Apex, multiply it by 0.3. Destiny 2 turns 0.0066° per mouse count and Apex turns 0.022°, so Destiny 2 6 becomes Apex 1.8. Keep the same DPI and both settings take 28.9 cm of mouse movement for a full turn.
- Find your Destiny 2 sensitivity in the Look Sensitivity option in the Controls settings.
- Multiply it by 0.3, or type it into the converter above with your DPI.
- In Apex Legends, open Settings → Mouse / Keyboard → Mouse Sensitivity and enter the result.
- Keep the same mouse DPI, or enter your new DPI in the converter.
Going the other way, a typical Apex setting of 1.5 is Destiny 2 5, or 34.6 cm per 360° at 800 DPI.

Common Destiny 2 settings converted to Apex. The last two Apex columns are for switching your mouse to 1600 or 400 DPI at the same time.

| 3 | 0.9 | 0.45 | 1.8 | 57.7 |
| 4 | 1.2 | 0.6 | 2.4 | 43.3 |
| 5 | 1.5 | 0.75 | 3 | 34.6 |
| 6 | 1.8 | 0.9 | 3.6 | 28.9 |

Why Destiny 2 and Apex numbers differ
Destiny 2 runs on Tiger engine and Apex Legends on Source (modified). Apex numbers are 3.33× smaller than Destiny 2 numbers for the same hand movement, because Apex turns more per mouse count.
Destiny 2 only accepts whole numbers, so round the converted value and adjust your DPI slightly if you need an exact match. 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. Apex shares the Source-engine 0.022 yaw, so hipfire sensitivity is identical to CS2. ADS uses separate per-optic multipliers.
- Mouse acceleration: if Windows acceleration or a mouse app adds it, the same movement turns a different amount depending on speed. Turn it off.

Does DPI change the Destiny 2 to Apex multiplier?
No. The ×0.3 multiplier holds at any DPI as long as you use the same DPI in both games. If you change DPI, divide by the ratio of new DPI to old DPI, or enter both values in the converter.
Where do I change sensitivity in Apex Legends?
Go to Settings → Mouse / Keyboard → Mouse Sensitivity. Apex shares the Source-engine 0.022 yaw, so hipfire sensitivity is identical to CS2. ADS uses separate per-optic multipliers.
