It is now clear that the first player has a lot higher sensitivity than the player 2, exactly 8 times. Meaning that an example from above where a player 1 is at 0.5 in-game sense multiplied by 3200 equals 1600 eDPI, and player 2 is 0.5 x 400 = 200 eDPI. Which is essentially a number that you get when you multiply your DPI with in-game sensitivity. Now that you can tweak both, it’s complicated to know the true sensitivity of someone’s mouse because someone might play at sensitivity 0.5 in-game and DPI at 3200, while someone might have it at 0.5 and DPI at 400, which brings me to the next point.ĮDPI stands for effective DPI. Now that you’ve found your exact DPI, there’s another feature that also changes your mouse’s sensitivity and that’s the in-game sensitivity setting in Valorant.

If you’re not sure what DPI is your mouse set on, most gaming mouse brands have an app that you can download and set your DPI. Gaming brands have marketed DPI as the Holy Grail for way too long and made many people think it’s a magic feature, however, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Let’s start by explaining what’s DPI, eDPI, and in-game sensitivity before I jump into tweaking your sensitivity in Valorant. There is no best Valorant sensitivity per se, but there are certain guidelines backed by real data on why your sensitivity should be in that range, and then tweaked by minor percentages to suit your personal preference. What exactly is sensitivity, what is DPI, eDPI, and how can you set your sensitivity for the most optimal performance.īefore I proceed, I would like you to know that many players will say there is no such thing as “best sensitivity” and that it’s all a personal preference. Hey everyone! In this article, I will talk about sensitivity in Valorant.
