What is the Best Recticle Color in Apex Legends? 

Avoid using yellow, blue, and red for your reticle as many in-game elements use the same color, making it difficult to see.

Your best option is lime green. It is very easy to spot and looks awesome, not to mention a number of professional players use this particular color. 

To get the Lime Green reticle, enter RGB Hex code 69,420,69.
