Best Free Fire sensitivity settings for headshots, less recoil, and accurate aiming

Free Fire has an assortment of weapons across various categories, but most beginners mainly use SMGs, Snipers, and ARs. All three have different control, recoil patterns, aiming, range, and accuracy. So, it sometimes feels difficult for a newbie to understand all of these aspects.

Although grinding hard is the best way to have better insights, sensitivity in Free Fire plays a crucial factor in recoil control, movement, and aiming of a firearm. The game provides players an opportunity to tweak the sensitivity of different scopes to enhance the in-game comfort and control.

How to optimize sensitivity in Free Fire for low recoil and better aiming

As already mentioned, each gun has a different recoil pattern and should be equipped with different scopes to suit its designated range.

For Shotguns and Pistols, no scope matters, while gamers should equip a Submachinegun with no scope, Red Dot, or 2x for better ADS or hipfire performance.

On the other hand, the choice of scopes for LMGs and ARs can be more diversified, including 4x among 2x, Red Dot, and no scope, while Snipers come with pre-occupied scopes.

Assault Rifles have the most effective recoil, while SMGs and LMGs are more stable. Apart from these three categories, the recoil of other types like Snipers and Shotguns don't matter due to their low fire rates.
