Thankfully, Deadlock doesn’t hold you back when it comes to tweaking your crosshair. Players can fully adjust how their reticle looks in the game, right down to adjusting its color and size. This guide compiles some of the best crosshair settings for Deadlock to help you get off to a good start.

The default crosshair in Deadlock is pretty decent, but fans of Hero Shooter may have specific preferences when it comes to crosshairs. It’s always worth going into the crosshair options menu and playing around with the sliders to find a setting that you like.
Here are three popular crosshair types that you can use in Deadlock:
Classic Crosshair
- Gap: 1
- Width: 2
- Height: 20
- Pip Opacity: 1.00
- Show Pip Border: Off
- Dot Opacity: 0.00
- Dot Outline Opacity: 0.00
This is a simple, straightforward crosshair with four pips converging on a single point. Setting the gap at 1 keeps some distance between the pips so that you can still see the target when you’re firing. You can set the gap value higher if you want more distance between the lines.
Crosshair With Dot
- Gap: 1
- Width: 2
- Height: 10
- Pip Opacity: 1.00
- Show Pip Border: Off
- Dot Opacity: 1.00
- Dot Outline Opacity: 0.50
This is a more polished version of the default Deadlock crosshair. It’s sharper and less opaque, making it a great choice if you’re new to the game.
Dot Crosshair
- Gap: 0
- Width: 2
- Height: 2
- Pip Opacity: 0.00
- Show Pip Border: Off
- Dot Opacity: 1.00
- Dot Outline Opacity: Player preference
A simple dot might be all you want from your crosshair if you’re a seasoned FPS enthusiast. By setting the pip opacity slider all the way to the right, you’ll get rid of all the lines. Set the dot opacity slider to maximum and adjust the dot outline opacity to taste.
