Apex Legends pros' settings in Rainbow Six Siege
The real Apex Legends settings of the most-followed players we track, carried into Rainbow Six Siege at each player's own DPI. Same cm/360, so the same aim.

Rainbow Six Siege pros aim about 17% faster than Apex Legends pros, so if your matched sens feels slow in Rainbow Six Siege, that's the game's norm rather than a conversion error.
How the conversion works
Both games are pinned to the same physical turn distance — your cm/360. We take your Apex Legends sensitivity, compute the cm/360 it produces, then solve for the Rainbow Six Siege sensitivity that reproduces it. DPI cancels out for standard scales, so the converted number is the same whether you play at 400, 800 or 1600 DPI.
For example, Apex Legends 2.5 works out to about 20.8 cm/360 — a high aim — which is Rainbow Six Siege 9.599. Plug your real DPI into the full calculator for an exact figure plus eDPI and your aim band.
