Combat Assist

No Recoil Settings: What Works Without Looking Obvious

Recoil assist is not a full laser — it trims vertical kick so you can track. This thread covers sensible levels per weapon class.

Rainbow Six Siege no recoil assist during assault rifle fight on rooftop

By weapon type

ARs and LMGs benefit most at moderate reduction — 50–70% feels like a good mouse pad and grip, not a script.

SMGs need less; pistols barely need any. Over-tuning shows in spectate when every bullet lands same pixel.

Stack with aimbot carefully

Soft aim + mild recoil is common. Max both and kill replays look wrong even if reports are slow.

See aimbot page for FOV and smoothness before you add recoil on top.

    No recoil isn't magic laser — just pulls enough that I win gunfights on R4-C. Still miss if I panic spray.

    Buddy maxed recoil reduction and gun looked robotic in replay. Dialed to 60% instead.

    Recoil profile reset after March patch. Rebuilt — check updates page before complaining like I did.
