BEST Controller Sensitivity / Settings in Destiny 2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 тра 2024
- Destiny 2: Season 15 brought some BIG Controller / Console updates to the settings menu. From sensitivity, to ADS sensitivity modifier, to Look Turn Scale (aka Traction), these new settings have a huge impact on every Destiny player and it's worth taking the time to optimize these settings to find what is best for you. Regardless of if you're on a console like the PS4, Xbox One, PS5, and Xbox Series X, OR if you're on PC using a controller, these settings are extremely important and will determine how successful you are in Destiny 2.
This video covers Sensitivity and the ADS Sensitivity Modifier in particular detail because these settings are extremely misunderstood among the general D2 population, and understandably so. The way the acceleration and sensitivity graphs work is very complicated and confusing. I discovered a LOT about how the sensitivity works and I didn't include it ALL in the video because the average viewer probably doesn't want THAT many details, but if you want to learn more just ask me in the comments and I'll reply! I hope you enjoy the video :)

I liked, commented and subscribed. I have watched this video multiple times, but only now understand it properly! It is highly recommended to rewatch this video periodically
It’s very important that I keep my double press delay low so that I can still bag without dodging by mistake.
LMAO
Genius!!
I knew someone would make this comment, well done!
Garbage player
I do the same thing, but I don't bag in pvp. I usually do it to strike bosses and in the tower lol
I have my settings down before watching but god damn this video is crazy in-depth. Not many people are doing what you’re doing. Keep it up man!
For the Melee button mapping i use the Right Bumper for the charged Melee and for the normal melee i use the Right Stick. It makes for more deliberate use of the charged melee and less consequential aim mistakes if you press the stick while adjusting your aim
The reason why i love watching you so much is that you genuinely seem like a fun and chill dude. I enjoy your content and i just wanted to let you know that I appreciate you :)
This is my kind of content right here. As someone who mainly snipes this content helps a lot, Thank you for doing this!
I was so disappointed to find out that the ads multiplier can’t give you an exact sensitivity. I started playing on 15 and wanted my ads sense at 7.5 but it never felt like 7.5. This video solved some unanswered questions of mine and I’m very thankful for the time you put in it. Guess I’ll have to play around with more settings again
I was disappointed as well haha, it’s quite unfortunate
@@ShadowDestinyI’ve been watching your videos the 40-60 rule and this one on sensitivity, thank you so much. I have noticed a slight improvement in now I just need to get better people like you are the reason why stay I in the game God bless you friend.
This video is SO thorough and detailed! Fantastic work man. 😁
Thanks man I'm glad you appreciate the detail!
Knew you played destiny! Love both you guys!
Thank you for your efforts I really loved how you explained a lot of options I just had by default and I feel I play better now. This video is a gods send.
Man that was Super Helpful! Im soo glad to here you say you dont map your charged mele also, because I had the same problems. Plus you voice is easy to listen too. Keep up the great vids
much love, thanks for watching
Soooo detailed, loving this! Love that you actually took the time to test this all out, true gaming commitment right there! Thank you so much 💙
Your approach to explaining/teaching is awesome man. Keep it up, great stuff.
Dude the commitment to this video earned you a subscriber. Thank you.
I 100% had the misconception of the ADS multiplier. I was really hyped to bump my sens from 7 to 8 but running with 0.8 ADS multiplier to lower my aim to 6. I’ve had a much harder time adjusting to the fact that aiming is not 1:1 than expected, and also the acceleration factor def explain why I’m overshooting/under shooting more than usual.
Thanks for the great research. This helps a lot for deciding how to adjust the sens and multiplier! And not think lagging behind pc players just because using a sens of 9, wich is my max I could use, with a 0,8 ads multiplier as a HC and shotty main.
That video was actually insane! Thanks for all that hard work!
I came across your videos today and I have to say they're amazing. Thanks for all the pvp tips, hopefully I can get a little bit better because of them.
This was so informative I have shared it with all my friends and also subscribed. Thank you for clear descriptions and good info. Keep it up and good luck guardian
Really appreciate it
Great job explaining. I came up with roughly the same conclusion afrer testing in a lost sector for a few hours. I've ended up at 13 and .8 as my most comfortable. I could feasibly adjust down a hair to 12 and .8, but I'm just trying to go the "get used to it" route for the quicker turning.
Awesome!
Nice vid! I’m so glad you understand everyone has their own playstyle
Thanks for making this video Shadow. Was looking forward to it since the changes.
For PS controller, I kept auto melee as r1, made uncharged as r3, and made charged as ADS and r1. Just holding the aim button makes me aim better for some reason so works well for projectile melees for me and doesn't take away from my muscle memory
Holy crap this sounds like a good idea.
@@curiousardor Is that an issue? If I can't end my ADS quick enough for some reason I've still got my uncharged on r3
@@curiousardor good question, I will be testing it today.
Came to the comments to give this exact advice. Uncharged as R1 and Charged as R1+L2 is working well for me
Me personally the only thing I change is that I put crouch as r3 because I only play hunter and exclusively played hunter for years so it’s really valuable to be able to instantly change direction, break aim assist, and have a few frames of god mode while still having my thumb on the right stick
First video that I’ve ever seen by Shadow. I’ve got to admit. I’m impressed. The amount of work that went into this video is evident and well delivered. You’ve earned yourself a subscriber my friend.
Thank you sir. I think you’ll find that I put a similar amount of effort into all of my videos. I want to make good content!
Just came back to D2 after a year plus break and finally found this video after trying to figure out what was going on with my PvP game for two weeks. Thanks....earned a sub!
This is gonna be huge help thank you so much you're guides are amazing and super clear
This is the best controller guide that I have seen in a long time
This video gave me the motivation to finally mess around with the sensitivity and mapping. I have 5's across the board now because I've been doing a lot of scout/sidearm playing at range so I don't need fast turning and that has significantly improved my aim. BUT the biggest thing was being able to jump and slide while aiming. That alone has completely changed my playing for the better. I went from 1.0/1.5kd or worse on average to 2+ on average. Even matches where we get stomped I'm routinely doing better than I was prior to the changes. Don't think this doesn't apply to you, it's seriously helpful stuff. Great video! The only downside is this video cost me $80 because I couldn't find a good mapping without a controller that adds extra buttons. I expect reimbursement by the end of the quarter.
Excellent video! So much misinformation out there about sensitivity since the update. Thanks for the time spent on this.
I’m subbing just because I can se how long this video would have taken to make. Good job bro, And thanks!
Loved the video. I’d love to experiment with new button layouts and different melee inputs, but I’ve been playing this game for so long with the same settings that I don’t know if it’s worth it. I have an Elite and I use all 4 paddles, so I already have crouching, jumping, reloading/reviving and sprinting mapped. But I did yo my sensitivity to 10 from 7, and my ADS multiplier from 1 to .7. Not sure if I like it more or not though
Great research. Crunching numbers can be so time consuming. But the results are so worth it!
Once I learned how much work you did to find these answers, I definitely dropped a like. Good work sir, I applaud your effort.
Thanks so much!
9:17 thanks for that, completely missed it in the settings and was bummed that the traction feeling was gone…
I’ll stick to 8 sens, 1.0 ads & 0.8 sprint modifier. Don‘t fix what ain‘t broken… 😉
Putting uncharged melee on right stick press feels quite nice when shotgunning. When you shoot just like squeeze the right hand and it shoots and instantly punches. I love it
thats also a way to destroy your controller and get stick drift ....
@@kenzilbaptiste2519 boohoo you can get a new one after a few months
@@kenzilbaptiste2519 I have bound crouch to that and after using the same controller for over a year now, no stick drift
I have the same setup and have special melee attack on RB. It is so fun on precision knife Hunter and tiny throwing hammer Titan. Some fun builds with them that synergize great with new and old exotics too.
Is your charged melee still in the standard bind like r1 or the equivalent for xbox controller ?
THANK YOU. I had no idea what the ads sensitivity was and had it at 1.1 for a while. This explains why I kept over adjusting
So many clips wtfff hahaha your over here casually ending guardians in the crucible while explaining all this science and math and turning and it’s amazing haha new sub!
Yo so for the charged melee….I have a solution that I love. First of all, I have crouch set to R3 press and class ability set to long r3 press. This frees up the Circle ⭕️ button for your uncharged melee. I have charged melee still on R1 because, like Shadow said, you need your thumbs on your joysticks to aim your charged melee. This leaves Finishers in a weird spot. Since it only works in PVE, I put it on D-Pad Down button. If an enemy can be finished- you will instantly finish them. If not- your emote still works as normal! It may sound weird reading it but trust me, it feels like a natural solution for anyone who’s already used to playing on Puppeteer. Give it a try!
Personally when it comes to sensitivity in games I’ve always said use whatever your comfortable using and use what makes you land your shots. However if you can use max sensitivity and still land all your shots then use max sensitivity. The advantages are insane, you can react quicker and in shotgun fights it makes all the difference. But if your using max sensitivity and missing some shots then tone it down a bit. That’s the way I’ve always looked at it.
I miss most of my shots regardless of sensitivity 🤣 good advice tho
Bro the aim assist makes me miss almost all my shots with how heavy it is i wish i could turn it off, same thing with how theres no deadzone setting, thats the 2 main things that stops me from playing this game a lot
Great editing montages great helpful tricks. I was just messing with the settings today! Thank you
Excellent video and very informative! You obviously put a lot of work and thought into it. Very well explained!
I’ve been using the Jumper configuration. tried out a few different options for the melee, i had it set to the same as the finisher at first but sometimes it would use the grenade (like it would do for inspecting people before I changed that) I think clicking both sticks was the best option but I still ran into some instances where it wouldn’t trigger, i also figured I’d be using the basic melee more often than the charged so I didn’t want to just switch them, so I just opted to not use the separate melee trigger. it would be cool if Sony put out an elite version of the dualsense so I could take advantage of paddles.
I use 20 sense at .8 turn scale and .7 ads modifier so that when I’m using a sniper/shotgun/Thundercrash titan, I can bait and turn then slam and shotgun and guarantee my kills. The .7 modifier gives me a good middle ground between high zoom and low zoom ads sens. I wish I could change high and low zooms speeds separately because .7 is a little too slow for sniping and a little too fast for low zooms like the multimach, chromarush, or last word. I still have to experiment a little more but this is just what I’ve found so far. Great video, keep up the good work.
im the same as you i run 20 sens .6 ads and turn scale
I'm currently running 20 sens and 1.5 ads. Took a little while to get used to smg's and shotguns but it feels great now that I'm used to it.
Ads with last word? Lame.
This helped me immensely. Thanks man for all your hard work.
What a great video!! I’ve always been kind of curious about these settings but never really understood what they were!! Thanks again!!
Thanks so much!
Another great video, thank you. Your findings correspond to my experience too. I'm at the higher sensitivity end though. Currently using 15 Sens with a 0.8 modifier and i found out for me this is much better than Sens 11 (which i used before). Even for sniping. Anything above 15 is pointless to me. I tried it and i even started missing my shotgun shots.
This is an awesome video! ADS settings gives controllers so much more control (hehe)
hehe very funny. Yeah I'm such a huge fan of the ADS settings, I can finally turn fast and still hit my snipes. It will no longer take me almost a whole second to turn around LOL
As soon as you told me the work I put in- I liked and subbed my dude. Thanks for helping us dummies
Bro, I hope you were compensated generously for this video. This is literally the information I was looking for in full detail. Great video boss!
Hey, thanks so much. UA-cam ads pay a decent amount :)
This is the best controller/sensitivity video I’ve seen thus far! I appreciate that you took the time time to explain all the settings as well 🙏🏻
I went from 7 sensitivity with traction to 12 sens, 0.7 ADS modifier and 0.8 turn speed. Was hesitant to go over 10 but scaling the ADS modifier down definitely helps keep your shot consistent. Seems to be working so far! 🙌🏻
nope some videos is better
I wish they would add a linear sensitivity option for controller. It’s a learning curve and feels bad at first, but it has improved my aim in all shooters on controller, namely apex.
Been awaiting this
Thank you 🙏 this needed to be talked about.
I've been running 13 sens with a 0.6 multiplier and its been great.
I put my class ability as R3 and never turned back. Putting R3 as my hunter dodge is soooo good because you have complete ominous directional control when u dodge since your movement control is already R3. It’s seamless
You’re seamless
Thank you. Been waiting for a video like this. You just earned another subscriber.
Thank you so much for your efforets and explainations! Omg i just dialed my ADS down and holy crap i feel like a pro. Headshots for days!!! ✌😁
So far I'm at 13 and .8 and still tweaking as time passes.
Also mapping finisher to both sticks, normal melee to right stick, and charged melee to default melee button has worked wonderfully for me. Inspecting players is set to right stick double click with hold at end.
I changed my sensitivity to 12 and 0.5 ads. I can finally hit shots and I picked up sniping. Also went flawless for the first time ever too. The boost in confidence definitely helped
Thank you for this, works great for me!
Is 0.5 halving the 12sense to a 6sense aim?
I just have to leave a comment out of respect for the amount work you put into this video. Well done.
This is so helpful for a while now playing destiny and coming back to season 15 I got my stuff so junked up it’s not even funny thank you shadow I’ve learned a lot after just three videos from sensitivity to 40-60 to finding out my load out is pretty decent you got my subs and likes any day
Was waiting for this so muuuch. Im actuallg playing 0,8 tracking while running and 11 on camera sensitivity.
sounds like a decent setup!
😏
Im really liking 11, 12 and 13 coming from an 8. I can actually get decent headshots with hand cannons now but i cant pinpoint which one yet
It’s ok, but I would just choose 12 bc it’s in the middle lol
I use 13 with a .7 ads multiplier. I havent done much experimentation with other setups yet but thats what feels right to me. Might not be the best for you but id give it a go
@@rvlhandpump2739 me too or .8 depending on what guns
Great help man feels so much crispier thanks also subbed
New sub here, appreciate your content, I've played Destiny since day 1 on D1...stopped playing about a year ago to play other games and have recently jumped back in for this season, your content has been VERY helpful and has helped me get caught up with what I have missed, keep up the great work bro thanks! 💯
Me using 20 sensitivity with max traction: yea maybe i really dont need traction lol
Left trigger+ melee button for the charged melee. Credit to: i think I saw this on a tdt video. It works great 👍
I look forward to trying this. Makes most ssnse
Thanks, Shadow. This is awesome and really informative.
Thanks! I experimented with a higher sensitivity not really knowing how it works. This helps.
Ok so I have a lot to say about this and I don’t know a good way to condense it, so, massive wall of text incoming.
First off, I’ve always liked higher sense because of how easy it helps with rapid movement and helps against rapid movement. Most of the movement I gain from high sense on a daily basis is turning sliding into a disengagement tool akin to a hunter dodge without having to run hunter, and improving movement abilities like icarus dash (yes, I play TTD). With higher sense you can quickly flick your stick and sprint slide into cover for something comparable to what a hunter dodge does minus disabling aim assist and tracking. For icarus dash, only on higher sense can you flick around your stick like a maniac, confusing your enemies (and yourself if you’re not careful). As for helping play against rapid movement, higher sense allows you to flick and easily correct your aim on certain things higher level players use such as strafing, flying into engagements with stomp-EE5 and TTD, and not losing track of a hunter using a double jump mid engagement.
The pain points you highlighted about higher sense are all true, it is much higher to maintain accuracy on higher sense and a lot of times you will be overshooting your target, but there are ways to mitigate that. Firstly, you can run a kontrol freek, they aren’t too expensive and a heightened stick 100% has increased my accuracy on higher sense as it slows the acceleration curve as to not feel jarring- honestly I couldn’t imagine going back to no kontrol freek without lowering my sense. Secondly, the 0.5x ads scalar has also made my aim extremely accurate on most weapons, the only ones that it hasn’t improved, as to be expected, are hip-fire based weapons like TLW, DMT, tommy’s and hip-firing on general weapons, which is a niche scenario and can be improved with training. The one thing I’ve noticed about 20 sense as compared to 10 sense is that you only really feel a massive difference in aim when your right thumbstick is fully pressed down on the edge, meaning the entire zone inside the center and the edge feels almost identical to 10 sense. This makes running hip-fire based weapons possible, just that you need to train yourself to not hold the thumbstick fully down to one edge and it will definitely be an entire process.
Lastly, button binds. I used to have a messed up right bumper because the xbox elite controller is complete ass (would recommend the power a fusion pro 2 btw if you run an xbox controller), but I had to bind melee to the right thumbstick for a long while until my new controller came in, so by the time it was in I was completely used to the right thumbstick and couldn’t go back to the bumper. With the new charged and uncharged melee, I’ve been running uncharged on the stick and charged on the bumper, and it’s taken a little bit of retraining muscle memory but eventually I think it’ll click. I used to have class abilities on RB for ease of use, but with the new addition I’ve bound hunter dodge back to B, B, and I’ve messed around with my emotes and bound rift and barricade to down on the pad- you can reach over with your right thumb to press down- and I did this because in general I didn’t like holding B to place a rift or barricade and you couldn’t slide into a rift or barricade with it bound to hold B.
TL;DR Higher sense allows faster more rigid moves and helps combat against it, 0.5x ads modifier and a kontrol freek helps with high (20) sense, and bind uncharged melee to RS(R3) and charged melee to RB(R1)
My melee layout: L2 for charged melee, R3 for uncharged. Tap down d-pad for finisher, hold down d-pad for emote. This has been working for me, but I run a pretty normal button layout, no puppeteer or anything. Just remember you can change things to hold, so put stuff on the d-pad and just change emotes to hold. I use down for important stuff because it's the closest distance my thumb has to move from the stick.
Yeah as soon as I was able to change finisher I did, so many times it would activate and nearly get me killed once I got out of animation
Genuinely one of the best channels for information breakdown
This is and underrated 📹. Valuable information here. I liked and subbed.
I actually mapped my charged melee to R2 + L1. L1 being the uncharged melee already and R2 for ADS so it helps me aim my throwing knife. Seems to work for me.
this could be the answer right here. will check it
I was using double press r2 but it doesn’t go well for sidearms or fast pulses etc… I’ll try this🍻🍻
@@cutsdeep @damon let me know how it goes.
Look 9 / ADS 0.7 / Sprint Scale 0.7
Been playing Destiny for years and this is the best video about Controller Sensitivity.
See u all in the Crucible or Iron Banner
Ty fov 80 or 110 ?
@@manuellebegue9650 110
105 ;)
This one video has actually helped me improve by a Landslide in sniping
I know I'm late to the party but this along with your other vids on 60/40 rule, common low kd mistakes and how to improve with hand cannons has drastically changed my pvp experience.
Literally went from pretty basic 1.5-2kda matches to pretty easy 3+kda with a few 30+ kill 10+kda matches within a few days. Even managed to get the 'we ran out medals' medal too.
I was running 14 sens, max ads and max sprint-turn. Changed to 8 sens, 0.6 ads and 0.6 sprint-turn. Literally night and day. Shotgun has taken a bit to get used to with the lower sens but HC/pulse/scout accuracy improved first game with new settings.
Appreciate these vids man, keep them coming!

What are your thoughts on these controller changes, did Bungie do a good job adding more options? Were you surprised to learn how the sens ACTUALLY works?
Awesome job Shadow, super in depth and translated in to easy to digest explanations.
Great video! I'm hoping it helps me, but could use your advice.
I WAS one of those kids who was great at video games. Lightning-fast reflexes and I could beat just about anyone handily, especially adults.
But that was roughly 40-50 years ago as I go back to the first video game, PONG, back in the early 70's. I never stopped playing except for the odd year or two when going to college. But when I bought the first Xbox360 at launch, I started to realize I was slowing up a bit and my reaction times weren't as good.
Fast forward to today, and I've got pretty significant arthritis in my hands so it's tough. I tend to react slow, then over-react to compensate. I have found kontrol freeks thumbsticks and precision rings to be a big help, but I will NEVER be very good in the Crucible. My only skill there is tactics in general.
I'm going to go iwth your middle-of-the road recommendations and tweak from there, but if you have any other suggestions, I'd love to hear them!
Thanks much!
@Ryder Elsley Sleeper Simulant?
Use green thumb mapping for your melee to be right stick and either map the charged one to right bumper or B
So before this change about 2 seasons ago I was running 4 sensitivity. What would that be now? Should I even bother changing it after such a long hiatus?
Thank you for all the hard work. This is really helpful. ✌️
This was awesome thank you!! Makes so much more sense now.
We appreciate the hard work because I was actually questioning about the sensitivity and how I could be better in Crucible so this video helps thank you and I'm subscribing
Wow thanks !
Dude I love your videos so much there is so much info 😍 😭
Great video, man! You've got a new subscriber^^. For the charged melee I did this:
- Disable automatic melee
- Set uncharged melee as normal melee button (in my case is R1)
- Set charged melee to "reload" + "melee button" (that's Square and R1 in my case).
The benefit is that the reload button doesn't change your guardian's position, unlike jump or crouch. You can ever press reload slightly before melee and still works. Furthermore, the "clamp- efect" you make with your both fingers makes it way too suitable for a quick input.
This was so good and helpful. Thank you!
Thanks for these helpful tips because found a good balance between the sensitivity and the ADS modifier and the Sprint scale I now run a sensitive of 10 and a ads of 0.7 and sprint-turn scale of 0.8 and thanks again.
AWESOME!
I really really really appreciate this video
I've been waiting for this! You're a freak Shadow 😉 Thank you 🎮
i appreciate your videos been playing destiny since destiny 1 alpha on ps4 now on pc and i suck with mouse n keyboard but this video and FOV video helps me alot thank you
You gained a sub just based on your details. I will reference your video when talking to clanmates henceforth
Great stuff! Keep it up! We appreciate it
Thank you for putting so much into this video its really helpful❤
Amazing job, thank you for doing this.
Amazing and informative video man! Well done!
Amazing in depth video - thank you 🙏🙌😊
Amazing video! Especially with how much effort I know it tookk
Thanks for explaining this, I was clueless with the new settings. You my friend have earned a sub.
thank you for watching sir
Hey Shadow, I love your extremely helpful vids and you rock ! 😎
As a titan main, I actually ignored the charged/uncharged update cause it didn't seem to matter for me, but your suggestion of setting it to clicking both sticks has been pretty good on my hunter...just have to train myself to remember to do it and it's been going good so far.
I was thinking the other day if someone could sum the new sensitivity setting up in a UA-cam video just the other day GG
Like always ur videos are so informative nd the help alot ... thanks for the video been waiting since the last video u post .👌👌👌👌👍👍👍
Brilliant video with nice clear breakdown, 👍
