Which Optics You SHOULD Be Using In Apex Legends!? 

Which optic is your favorite to run? Have a great day everyone!

That 2x bruiser is my all time favorite. That thing on a fully kitted 301 is all a man needs

All of the variable optics (excluding 4-8) are my favorite

My strengths are close to mid range, so very rarely do I got further than 3x scope. Sometimes the 2-4 variable.

The 1 times dot is superior in every way, I don’t care if there’s a 1 to 2 times laying right there even if I have a flatline or r-301, I’m not picking that up

no sight r99 with a 2-4x hemlock is a surprisingly goated combo

2x scope for all assault 1x for smgs and pistols and 3x or 2-4x for all of my snipers. I never use the 4-8 or 4-10 and who would ever choose the 6x on purpose

1x dot and 2x V sight all I use

I'm an avid HCOG advocate.

I love playing sentinel supercharged with 6x and rampart. it feels so evil yet good to just eat up bats after bats and all you had to do was 2 cells LMAO

used to love bruiser on AR’s but I’ve been running 2x-4x on AR’s more as of late because it gives the same standard 2x zoom I want on AR’s while also having the ranged option with the 4x zoom. 3x ADS zoom is too much for me in close range situations imo.

I love the 3x on whatever my long range weapon is, usually G7 or triple take, and bruiser on smg

I recently started choosing 2x4x for the R301 and Flatline.. very underrated

It also should be noted that if you play on controller, aim assist is removed if you have a sniper scope attached (4x8, 6x and 4x10). This also includes the Kraber.

The base iron sights on the Rampage is absolutely amazing

Mine is either the 2x or 3x. Those on the r-301 are absolutely insane

Sniper: Always go for the best scope you can get. If you are in a 2x-4x range most of the time, just stick with marksman or even a fully kitted AR with 2x-4x

1x2 is slept on

Ima 2x-4x and 3x guy. The 3x is OP with the R-301 Carbine tho.

2-4x is good because it is convenient if you need to switch your sniper to a marksman, AR, or LMG

3x of r-301 and flatline is insane u just need to learn to hip fire

2x bruiser Put that on any weapon and my aim gets better

Rlly everyone just use the sight u like the most. For an example most players use 2-4 time scope on G7 meanwhile i use 3 time bc i like it more and i play better with 3 time.

1x holo is fricking disgusting 🤮

typical controller player

I strangely prefer the 1x holo over the 1x dot… it sits higher up off the weapon and reduces clutter at the bottom of the screen.

2-4x is my absolute favorite for sniping and marksman rifles like the 30-30. The 2x is my preference for all assault rifles, and dot for everything else, I’ll pick a digi up if no one is using it but if someone prefers it then they can have it.

1x people here 👇

4x10 on a charge rifle is the greatest and most toxic thing 😜

I gotta have the the 4x8 or 6x10 on my sniper for the range finding ability. Its so satisfying to headshot someone from across the map using one of these.

“irons”

I use no optic on wingman unless it’s red dot the one with more view not the one he said in the vid

Can you make a video how to practice leading shots?

I honestly used to be a 2x Bruiser kinda guy. Go to on all AR’s and it even works well on the Car, Volt, and LMG’s. But I find myself using the 3x more on the 301 and it works beautifully, even works decently on LMG’s and really helps because it does work in close range and functions at long range

'Which sights you should be using' Also 'It's all personal preference' 😂

1x2 is my fave I don't like using the 2x as I don't like the little triangle aim 🤣

I like the 3x on most guns that are compatible with it. But i have been getting used to the 2-4 because either my teammates also want the 3x and I'd rather have them comfortable so they perform better then have it myself or i just can't find the 3x so i settle for the 2-4

Flatline 1-2x, sentinel 2-4x. All I need.

3x on Flatline and R-301 is so good

i have started liking 3x and 2-4x purple on r3 and flatline

For snipers and DMRs, I prefer a 2-4x or a 4-8x. For LMGs and ARs, I prefer a 2x or a 3x (depends on the weapon). For shotguns and SMGs, I prefer a DT or a 1-2x. For pistols, I prefer running iron sights, ESPECIALLY the P2020, because it just looks so awkward with an optic attached.

I'll take a 3x or 2x for my flatline or g7 my favorite guns. Digital on my r9. Those are my favorites

On flatline/nemesis/carbine it’s the 3x On alternator/R99/Eva/Peacekeeper it’s the 1x-2x Everything else isn’t being picked up by me.

I used to always look for a Bruiser and the 1x HCog or Digi…now I love the 3x on my AR’s. I’ll use the 2x4 or the 3 Xbox for marksman and snipers as well. 😮digi or hcog for smg and pistols!!

2x-4x on ARs just look to weird and bulky especially on the 301 for ARs I use the bruiser or the red dot marksman and snipers I only use 2x-4x, bruiser, or the 3 times. The only reason I don’t use the 2x-4x on ARs is because it just looks to heavy and ugly

2x hcog bruiser and 2x 4x hcog bruiser are my favorite. I can't stand optics that take my peripheral view away.

Agree for the most part except on the 1x options. I like the open top for most guns and the round for Eva/PK/Moz because it helps me visualize roughly where my spread will be. Also 3x is the only sight I'll run on the longbow, rather ironsights than anything else.

Mostly using 1x Hcog for smg and wingman rarely using the round one i rather choose iron sight, x2 on AR SMG and Sniper, using x1-x2 if no Hcog style, x3 For AR and Sniper, x2-x4 only marksman and sniper rarely using it on AR because it cover too much screen, x4-x6 and the rest only for sniper but i prefer x3 or 2x-4x so i can use it on cqb

Always pick up the digi when u can use it Bruiser or 3x on a Viable gun 2-4x on snipers, Marksmen, some AR/LMG 4-10x is also a must if you got a Sniper

2x Bruiser is my preferred optic just in general, I'll use it instead of basically anything except the 1x DT on SMGs. The only other sight I use is the 2x4 on snipers and even then I sometimes take the bruiser over it

for me a 1x2 for smgs, 1x red dot for wingman n r9, 2x/3x for assault rifles, 2x4 for a marksman or sniper, 4x10 for longbow ONLY

I run hemlok with preferably 3x, but I'll take a 2x/4x or even 2x bruiser if i can't find the others. As second weapon with the hemlok i take the car or r-99, with digithreat if available and otherwise a 1x dot. If i don't find either of those i rather use iron sight instead of other available options.

i know my favorite loadout is “generic”, you could put it, but r301 with 3x and r99 with digi threat is craaaazy for me

I dont like 1-2 and 2-4, most of times I would pick 2x bruiser, but for marksman or flatline I preffer 3x and I put digit only if I use SMG, on shootguns I preffer to use iron sights or just hipfire all the way

3x mid for me for some reason is my favorite sight and I use for any assault. I prefer holo 2x over bruiser if I can't find 3x (which is most of the time). 2x - 4x is a decent replacement for 3x for me. 1x dot is great for wing man (I just suck at wingman lol). Digi I could take it or leave it but if I have it I put it on smgs. The rest I don't touch.

2x bruiser flatline/spitty/r301 paired with a 2x4 tripple take or 3x bow 🤤🤤🤤

2×-4× is goated on the triple take ,3x on any assault rifle, bruiser on the wingman

I'm good wit all iron sights but my favorite is Bruiser hands down, I put that on a 301, Volt, Car & 99, I be catchin people far away wit that 99 wit a Bruiser for range is good too, back when the Hemlock was ground loot I put it on that too

I’m not trying to turn this into an aim assist debate, but the fact that 2x4 has aim assist but 6x, 8x, and 10x doesn’t just feels inconsistent. I’m willing to bet actual money that data shows that controller players consistently leave higher scopes on the ground because there isn’t aim assist and it feels wonky using guns that have and don’t have AA. Imagine they removed AA on all sights- I bet you’d see a serious uptick in 6x and 8x use.

3x on marksman or sometimes assaults, 2-4x on sniper or marksman, digi threat on anything smaller preferably but if i can't find one it's always the 2x. I'm not a fan of dots

Something about the 1X circle optic makes using the volt so much better for me. Idk why

Honestly it depends on the day for me, sometimes im feeling the 2x, sometimes 3x, or 2-4x, but i HATE the 1-2x sight

Honestly I stopped putting optics on weapons with auto except the 1 times ads movement is what wins fights for poking weapons I do use optics but I prefer fighting close without poke weapons I don't want to enable a player with advantage to abuse the advantage of high ground or head peaks specifically. If I engage a fight willingly I pressure them then move in for the kill to minimize possibility of skill gap. I'd prefer sharpening my skills in combat than peeking and hiding if you get cracked long range 9/10 fights they have an ability to prevent your recovery from that weather it be movement based or whatever. So giving them less time to think is my go to. I play wattson lately so I force them to step into my arena so to speak For maximum potential of a clutch or a 1v3 working in my favor.

Bruiser I can beam far with the 301, digi, 1x Hcog on all my SMGs… 4x8 on charge rifle

They should honestly make more optics not saying go nuts like mw2 I can’t even keep track of all of those optics but some new ones in apex wouldn’t hurt 🤷‍♂️

squar 2x is my fav for 301 and flat line im most likely unstoppable while having this scope with all purple attachments 🔥🤩

Tell me you're a controller player without telling me you're a controller player.

Hemlock x2-x4 single fire. I'll tear you apart 200 meters away

If you have a sniper and a 4-10 dlap it on, it will highlight enemies far of or hiding in poi's that you vould have missed. Its a good recon tool as well as a bangalore killer

HCog x1 on everything unless I have access to a Digital Threat. Playing smgs, shotguns and Wingman though

Wish I could change the reticle on the bruiser. I miss a lot when the center sit has a circle around it. Especially on like the threat detector on like a wingman. Makes it seem like you’ll hit them just to miss slightly. I’d rather just the dot, no guide or distance lines cause idk how to read them anyway.

I have a question for you that actually has nothing to do with the video. How do you feel about the weapon swap speed in apex? Often times I feel like people use weapon swaps as a panic move after missing too much and are rewarded for such a play style rather than punished. I also think this is why the LMG and pistol meta is weak as well. Why pick up an LMG with a large clip when you can have two assault rifles and swap between them faster than reloading the LMG and have a better TTK? And it devalues the pistols because the faster swap speed on them is almost irrelevant.

I find x6 is easy to use for me than x8 or x10 for range fights. x2 for short-med range Shame that my trusty Hemlok is in care package right now tho

2x hcog on smgs and 3x on ars. Trust me boys this shit absolutely fries people

I like the 2-4x cuz I can switch between high and low dpi rlly easily, makes it easier to jitter aim, goated for ar's

Bangalore: Flatline 1x-2x - R99/Wingman Digital Threat. yeah, i’m him

Idk why but the flatline and wingman iron sights are my favorite... Flatline I think is because is used to be a huge titanfall2 sweat and that's just what I used to run but the wingman just feels like such a good iron sight

Personally love the 2x4 the optics are great for long range and I can predict the range and bullet drop better but also viable close range if I want to get a quick scope with my sniper to get big damage before I swap to my close range weapon

First human I saw playing vintage literally I felt like I am the only playing this

I used to run 2x bruiser on my wingman 1x classic on my smg or reversed if I had a AR and wingman but tbh now I just run iron sights with both

Guys lets make a pitition to make the 6x turn into a 6x-2x scope like it has a slamted sight on the side or even a 1x would be fine for close combat u know

My favorite is between the 2x bruiser and the 3x...

1x and 2x hcog because they just block less of your screen, also I don’t like sniper scopes, they take too long to zoom

r3 or flatline with 2x4 is my go to. Idk why, It just clicks with me.

I can never effectively use the 1-2x for some reason. Bruiser and 3X go crazy tho

You skipped my favorite lol. Where was the blue 2x split sight?

I go for any optics that lets me see further, except wingman, I like either iron sight, 1x classic or digi

1-2x is terrible imo i wouldnt be caught using it unless i have to because im using a gun with bad irons but other than that id rather use iron sights. ill use a 1x dot on anyting if i have to but i usually use it on smgs, wingman and the pk/eva. id never use a sight on the mastiff tho unless its a digi cuz thats a must have in this meta

1x-2x on my long range weapon Digi Threat on my close range weapon

I will always use the sniper optics on vantage. Her passive makes those optics way better

Bruiser. Good on all ARs, and a few smgs. Close second is the regular 1 times, good for anything that isn't long range

I run 2x4 on sentinel when I wanna play a long range high damage game but 3x when I wanna push everything

My fav optic for the triple take is the 1-2x because I use it as a mid range gun and a shotgun

I just run 2x-4x hemlock all day ez destruction

If you’re a roller player you should never be using super long range they dont have aim assist so you’re handicapping yourself for no reason

For some reason, I absolutely love DT on Wingman, only weakness for me really is the line guides are white

I knew immediately this was a controller player tip video, ill take the 6x on a sniper over any scope with a 4 inch wide dot reticle.

You should use whichever optic you feel good with and not follow some RU-vid shorts guide

Just say it out it is man. 6x and up doesn’t have aim assist which is why you recommend 2-4 and 3x.

2x is enough for everything 2x is all you need 2x is life
