FAQ — Dropped’s Settings & General Advice

Q: Why is Dropped’s sensitivity (2.1) so high compared to many pros?

Because he uses a low DPI (400), the high in-game sensitivity gives him an effective eDPI of 840 — still within a range many pros find playable. Lower DPI + higher in-game sens can allow for finer control while keeping aiming responsive.

Q: What does eDPI mean and why is it important?

eDPI = DPI × In-Game Sensitivity. It’s a combined metric that reflects how sensitive your overall aiming is. It helps compare setups even if the raw DPI or in-game sens differ. Many pros aim for a balanced eDPI for a mix of precision and speed.

Q: Should I copy all of Dropped’s settings exactly?

You can, but it’s better to treat them as a starting point. Sensitivity, keybinds, and video settings translate differently depending on your hardware, mousepad size, mouse grip style, and comfort. Adjust gradually if something feels off.

Q: What’s the advantage of low graphics (low shadows, no AA, low detail) that Dropped uses?

Lowering graphical fidelity reduces input lag, improves FPS stability, and makes important visual cues (like enemy silhouettes, gunfire) more visible — which helps in fast-paced fights.

Q: If I don’t use the same gear (mouse, mousepad, monitor), will these settings still work?

They might not feel the same. Gear affects aim feel, sensitivity perception, and comfort. Use similar settings as a baseline, then fine-tune based on what feels natural with your own gear.
