Convert Rust sensitivity to Escape from Tarkov
Moving from Rust to Escape from Tarkov? Keep the exact same aim by matching your cm/360. A Rust sens of 1.5 becomes about 1.35 in Escape from Tarkov (at 800 DPI, ~6.8 cm/360).
Rust → Escape from Tarkov conversion table
| Rust sens | cm/360 @ 800 DPI | Escape from Tarkov sens |
|---|---|---|
| 0.3 | 33.9 cm | 0.27 |
| 0.5 | 20.3 cm | 0.45 |
| 1 | 10.2 cm | 0.9 |
| 1.5 | 6.8 cm | 1.35 |
| 2 | 5.1 cm | 1.8 |
| 3 | 3.4 cm | 2.7 |
Rust uses a non-standard sensitivity scale (percentage or slider), so this conversion is a close community-model approximation rather than an exact 1:1.
Rust pros' settings in Escape from Tarkov
The real Rust settings of the most-followed players we track, carried into Escape from Tarkov at each player's own DPI. Same cm/360, so the same aim.
| Player | Rust (their setting) | Escape from Tarkov equivalent | cm/360 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Welyn | 400 DPI · 0.4 | 0.36 | 50.8 cm |
| Blooprint | 400 DPI · 0.4 | 0.36 | 50.8 cm |
| Frost | 800 DPI · 0.37 | 0.333 | 27.5 cm |

Across the mouse players we track, the typical Rust aim is 44.9 cm/360 (8 players) and the typical Escape from Tarkov aim is 31.1 cm/360 (16 players). Escape from Tarkov pros aim about 45% faster than Rust pros, so if your matched sens feels slow in Escape from Tarkov, 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 Rust sensitivity, compute the cm/360 it produces, then solve for the Escape from Tarkov 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, Rust 1.5 works out to about 6.8 cm/360 — a very high aim — which is Escape from Tarkov 1.35. Plug your real DPI into the full calculator for an exact figure plus eDPI and your aim band.
