Sens 0.30 @ 650DPS
Lower the sens the better, once you get used to it (usually takes about an hour)
what!?
i play with sens on 2.0 and my copperhead jacked up to ten. This way i dont have to move my hand much at all to do huge direction changes. Perfect 180s while sprinting mess with hitboxes so badly, its awesome.You are the first good player I've ever heard recommend low sens.
But for most people, you just want to make sure you can do a 180 with a really consistent movement of your hand. Like if you think about keeping your arm in one place and moving the mouse with your wrist, one full sweep of your wrist alone should make a perfect 180.
Having a good mouse is totally necessary, it isn't even possible to be as consistent with a crappy mouse because the optics are less consistent than your hand. You instead have to play slower at the speed your mouse will let you play at. lame. Like you will find that with a crappy mouse you can make it turn really fast, but you cant slow your hand down and make it zero in between a couple pixels, it just keeps jumping around all fucked up. with a good mouse, the movement of your cursor actually equals the movement of your hand, it doesnt become all inaccurate. With your current mouse, just figure out how high you can turn up the sens while still being able to hover between a couple pixels on the screen.
Just FYI, if you have sens on your mouse and in game, play with your mouse up higher than the software. Your mouse sens can affect DPI if your adjusting the mouse, but software dosnt make it any more "sensitive" in reality it just multiplies all of your movement and the inaccuracy of your mouse. The actual hardware DPI sens of a mouse is what determines its sensitivity to your hand movement.
With that said, I like to ramp up my sens as i play. Like if I've been playing for half hour and I'm into it, I turn it up. But if I am coming in cold, sometimes I lower the sens to 7.5 (once again, get a good mouse with on the fly sens) and wait until it starts to seem sluggish before I turn it the rest of the way up.
If you get consistent at aiming with your mouse turned way up, then its like you are snapping from one head to another with an aimbot, there is hardly any cursor travel time. You are working against yourself if you actually force the cursor to move across the screen slower than necessary, or if you are making your arm do work that you could relegate to a handy little machine like your mouse.
