Our suggested settings are based on players like Sway, Aydan, and Xtra Reet. The top-tier professional Fortnite players tend to have a higher sensitivity, regardless of their playstyles. Fortnite controller mapping The Builder Pro controller layout is the best controller settings for Fortnite. It is a type of controller binding that high-level competitive players use. So, you want to make sure to use the Builder Pro controller layout as it will enhance your playstyle and ensure victory royals! Builder Pro makes building feel instantaneous. It'll keep your building up to par with the keyboard and mouse users in your games when it comes to speed. You might struggle once you switch to a Builder Pro controller layout, but you'll get used to it\u2014I know I did. Combat controls If you use a third-party tool to communicate with your squad mates like Discord, you can free up the Push to Talk binding to use it for other keys that you may need quick access to. The buttons are listed below as they'd appear on PlayStation\/Xbox. Target: L2 \/ LT Previous Weapon: L1 \/ LB Attack \/ Confirm: R2 \/ RT Next Weapon: R1 \/ RB Inventory: Direction Pad Up Place Marker \/ Ping: Direction Pad Left Squad Requests: Direction Pad Right Push to Talk: Direction Pad Down Map: Touch Pad \/ View Button Toggle Pickaxe: Triangle \/ Y Reload \/ Interact: Square \/ X Switch Mode: Circle \/ B Jump: Cross \/ A Sprint \/ Auto-Run: L3 \/ LS Crouch: R3 \/ RS Game Menu: Options Button \/ Menu Button Build controls Stair Piece (select \/ place): L3 \/ LT Roof Piece (select \/ place): L2 \/ LB Wall Piece (select \/ place): R3 \/ RT Floor Piece (select \/ place): R2 \/ RB Inventory: Direction Pad Up Change Material \/ Trap: Direction Pad Left Squad Requests: Direction Pad Right Push to Talk: Direction Pad Down Toggle Pickaxe: Triangle \/ Y Trap Picker (place \/ interact): Square \/ X Switch Mode: Circle \/ B Jump: Cross \/ A Map: Touch Pad \/ View Button Sprint \/ Auto-Run: L3 \/ LS Rotate (repair \/ change trap): R3 \/ RS Game Menu: Options Button \/ Menu Button Edit controls Select: R3 \/ RT Inventory: Direction Pad Up Push to Talk: Direction Pad Down Toggle Pickaxe: Triangle \/ Y Confirm: Circle \/ B Jump: Cross \/ A Map: Touch Pad \/ View Button Sprint \/ Auto-Run: L3 \/ LS Reset: R3 \/ RS Game Menu: Options Button \/ Menu Button How to change your Fortnite controller settings Here's how to change your Fortnite controller settings Press the Esc\/Options\/Menu\/+ button on your controller or keyboard You'll see a gear icon in the taskbar. Click that to open the settings menu Click the gamepad icon in the settings menu From there, you will be able to change Fortnite gamepad controls on Xbox & PlayStation Best controller configuration for Fortnite There are five Xbox & PlayStation configurations you can choose in Fortnite: Old School, Quick Builder, Combat Pro, Builder Pro, and Custom. But which one's the best? And what are the differences? Old school This Xbox & PlayStation config is mostly for Fortnite veterans who've been playing since Season 1. We recommend not picking this preset. It's a fairly awkward and slow config and mostly exists for nostalgia reasons. Quick Builder This config aims at making quick building easier. However, we also don't recommend picking this one, as there is a significantly better config further down the list. Combat Pro This config is a bit better for those who don't want to build and just focus on the combat itself. Builder Pro This Builder Pro is the single best Fortnite controller config to pick. It is going to work in the vast majority of situations, and it completely changed the meta when it came out. It makes building much easier and increases your win rate by a fair amount. Custom presets If none of the above configs are your thing, you should try making your own custom preset. This is perfect for those with particular needs and quirks that the other configs might not satisfy. We recommend this if you have a really good idea of your playstyle and how to accommodate it. Best controller sensitivity options in Fortnite Sensitivity settings are mostly personal preference since they\u2019ll even vary depending on your controller type. Search for pro players who have similar controllers to you, and change depending on what you like best. I typically borrow a professional's settings, then tweak it to suit my playstyle on Xbox and PlayStation. I'll even switch some settings from time to time just to keep myself on my toes when I'm playing. Aim Assist in Fortnite also relies on a player's sensitivity settings. Though aiming precisely with a controller is more difficult than using a mouse\/keyboard combination, Fortnite\u2019s aim assist evens the odds. Aim assist is still a powerful ally to controller players, but it isn't the only weapon in their arsenal. Aim assist might be a discount aim-bot, but you'll need to fine-tune your settings in order to make your game the best it can be. The following sensitivity settings were mostly customized for PlayStation and Xbox controllers, but you should still take the time to see if the values are right for you before hopping into a game. Why should you customize your sensitivity settings in Fortnite? Fortnite's default settings may not cater to everyone's likings. All players will have a personal preference when it comes to sensitivity settings, and finding the best layout will often depend on trial and error. The settings listed in this article will work out just fine for most players, but further tweaking might be needed to make them right for personal habits. After applying your settings, you can make a custom match in Fortnite and test everything before heading to Fortnite's Arena mode. Sensitivity settings - aim Aim Sensitivity (ADS): Four Build mode sensitivity multiplier: 1.8x Edit mode sensitivity multiplier: 1.8x Use advanced options: On You\u2019ll need to turn on the advanced sensitivity options to gain access to the remaining settings. Advanced - look sensitivity Look horizontal speed: 49 percent Look vertical speed: 59 percent Turning horizontal boost: Zero percent Turning vertical boost: Zero percent Turning boost ramp time: Zero seconds Instant boost when building: Off Advanced - aim down sights (ADS) sensitivity ADS look horizontal speed: 17 percent ADS look vertical speed: 17 percent Keeping your horizontal and vertical at the same value is essential to make sure that your aim doesn\u2019t fasten up as you move your camera in different angles. ADS turning horizontal boost: Zero percent ADS turning vertical boost: Zero percent Boost settings usually decrease accuracy since they\u2019ll make your camera spin faster as you hold onto your movement sticks. ADS turning boost ramp time: Zero seconds Advanced - sensitivity Look dampening time: 0.20 seconds Look input curve: Linear Aim assist strength: 100 percent Aim assist is what separates the best controller players from the decent ones. You\u2019ll learn how to abuse the aim assist to your advantage as you play more Fortnite, and setting it to its maximum value will make it easier. Controller deadzone Move stick deadzone: Six percent Look stick deadzone: Six percent Lower deadzone values makes your analogs more sensitive to movement. Setting them to zero percent may cause some misscliks so you should find that sweet spot for you between three and 10 percent. Foot controller Enable foot controller: On Foot controller dead zone: One percent Foot controller max throttle: One percent Foot controller is another important setting that you\u2019ll need to spend some time experimenting with. Some players will prefer an accelerating aim to scout around faster, while others will prioritize accuracy. The foot controller settings will adjust the acceleration of your overall sensitivity, and keeping on the lower side of the spectrum has been a common preference amongst professional players. Best controller mapping for Zero Build in Fortnite If you're not a fan of building in Fortnite, then you're in luck! The game's Zero Build mode offers the intense gameplay of Battle Royale without all of that pesky construction work. Additionally, not having to build means you can free up some button inputs for more intuitive controls when it comes to battling! Fortnite One might think that the default setting of Combat Pro would make a fine choice for Zero Build, but this isn't the case. Combat Pro still devotes key face buttons to building.
