Gaming Mouse (wired, 400–3200 DPI adjustable)
RequiredFPS aim training requires a mouse you can set to a consistent, low DPI. Wireless mice introduce slight input lag and battery anxiety. A wired mouse with a smooth sensor and adjustable DPI lets you dial in the exact sensitivity pros recommend on prosettings.net.
Large Mouse Pad (desk-sized, low friction)
RequiredLow-sensitivity FPS play requires wide arm movements — a small mouse pad forces you to lift and reposition constantly, breaking your rhythm. A desk-sized extended pad gives your arm room to move freely and keeps your keyboard and mouse on a consistent surface.
