Game-Specific Settings

Configuring Audio Radar
Adjust Sensitivity: We recommend a low sensitivity when multiple mobs are nearby and a higher one when there are few.
Testing Tips
Enter a Creative Mode: Test how Audio Radar reacts to different sounds.
Use Subtitles: When you combine the colors of the light bars with subtitles, you can almost be 100% accurate on what you're hearing.
Iterate on Settings: Make incremental changes to your audio settings based on your experience in the practice matches. Notice if certain sounds are too prominent or if others need to be more discernible.
