Avowed: Best Controller Settings

Optimize Your Avowed Controller Experience: A Comprehensive Guide

Avowed's fast-paced combat and expansive world require precise controls. While keyboard and mouse users might not encounter many issues, controller users often find the default settings less than ideal, reporting sluggishness, unresponsiveness, and even input lag or unintended movement (especially Xbox players experiencing stick drift). This guide provides solutions for PC and Xbox controller users.

Common Controller Problems & Solutions

Patch 1.2.4 introduced improved controller settings, but some issues persist: inconsistent camera movement, camera acceleration problems, lack of target locking, clunky ranged combat, and unintended character movement due to stick drift. Fortunately, most of these can be resolved by adjusting in-game settings.

Controller Button Mapping

Avowed officially supports Xbox controllers. PlayStation (PS4/PS5) controllers work on Steam, using this mapping:

Control Category	Action	Xbox Button	PS Button (Southpaw Alternative)
Movement	Move	LS	RS
	Look	RS	LS
	Jump/Parkour	A	✖
	Crouch/Slide	B	⭘
	Sprint	LS↓	RS↓
Actions	Main Hand Action	RT	R2
	Off-Hand/Secondary	LT	L2
	Interact	X	☐
	Swap Weapon Set	Y	△
	Sheathe Weapons (Hold)	Y	△
	Toggle Perspective (Hold)	RS↓	LS↓
Abilities	Ability Radial	LB	L1
	Ability Slot 1	↑	↑
	Ability Slot 2	↓	↓
	Ability Slot 3	→	→
	Ability Slot 4	←	←
	Throw Grenade	RB	R1

Recommended Controller Settings

These settings offer a balance between responsiveness and precision, minimizing stick drift issues:

Setting	Recommendation	Description & Reason
Controller Vibration	Optional	Disabling improves stability; enabling enhances immersion.
Controller Vibration Intensity	Optional
Invert Horizontal Look	Optional	Reverses left/right camera movement.
Invert Vertical Look	Optional	Reverses up/down camera movement.
Look Sensitivity X-Axis	0.65	Adjusts horizontal camera speed; lower values = more precise control.
Look Sensitivity Y-Axis	0.65	Adjusts vertical camera speed; lower values = more precise aiming.
Look Acceleration Strength	1 (Default)	Controls camera acceleration during turns; higher values = quicker turns.
Look Acceleration Ramp-Up Time	0.3 (Default)	Controls how quickly acceleration reaches full speed; lower values = snappier movement.
LS Inner Dead Zone	0.15 (Default)	Helps mitigate acceleration issues and stick drift.
LS Outer Dead Zone	0.1	Helps mitigate acceleration issues and stick drift.
RS Inner Dead Zone	0.07	Helps mitigate acceleration issues and stick drift.
RS Outer Dead Zone	0.1	Helps mitigate acceleration issues and stick drift.
Controller Preset	Optional	Choose between "Default" and "South Paw" (swaps left/right stick functions). No custom button remapping is currently available.

Alternative Settings

If the above settings aren't ideal, try these alternatives:

Setting	Recommendation
