Best Loadout for Each Class in The Finals

While most of the changes are increasing the sensitivity, an important setting to have is the Controller Preset changed to Directional Equipping. This changes the behavior of equipping gadgets from a wheel menu to assigning D-Pad buttons to each of the three gadgets during matches. It is much faster to press a button to bring out a grenade or zipline instead of bringing up a giant radial wheel during combat.

The other setting that can be changed is Controller Vibration to Off, but that is up to personal preference. The Finals can be very hectic, so trying to aim and shoot while your hands are constantly vibrating can be detrimental to doing well.

While you are changing your settings, here is our guide on how to change your loadout in The Finals.
