A dot puts a hard visual anchor directly on the target, but that solid area also covers information a hollow gap would preserve. This page includes only pure dots with the center dot enabled and crosshair length at or below zero, excluding dots with outer arms.

Copy-ready pro crosshairs
Pure dot or dot plus lines
- Pure dot: minimal obstruction outside the center, best for players with stable placement and deliberate taps.
- Dot plus short arms: retains directional reference for transfers and sprays.
- Thicker dot: easier to see but more likely to cover distant heads.
Who should avoid it
If you spray often, clear several angles quickly, or lose single-pixel centers on complex backgrounds, a small cross-shaped code may be easier to recover. A dot does not increase headshot accuracy or weapon precision.
Adjustment order
- Check head coverage at long range.
- Reduce thickness if the dot hides the model.
- Change to a higher-contrast color if the dot disappears.
- Add short arms if a pure dot lacks transfer reference.
