HAVOC spray pattern

In Apex Legends, the HAVOC climbs almost straight up for the first 3 rounds, then drifts steadily to the right. Here's the shape, the numbers, and how to control it — then drill it into muscle memory on SprayTrace.

A characteristic recoil model that captures the weapon's real climb, direction and rhythm for training — not a pixel-exact plot of the in-game spray.

How to control it

Controlling the HAVOC spray

  1. Pull down to cancel the climb. The HAVOC rises about 9.5° over its first burst — drag straight down to keep the crosshair on target as it climbs.
  2. Ease left into the drift. The spray walks 5.0° to the right — feed a slow left correction as you pull down.
  3. Reset between bursts. Recoil fully resets after about 0.45s off the trigger — tap-fire or burst at range, spray up close.
  4. Drill it to muscle memory. At 672 RPM a full 16-round spray plays out in ~1.43s. Trace it in SprayTrace at 20% speed, then ramp to full, then go Blind.
