How to make heart crosshair in Valorant

Crosshairs are extremely important, not only in Valorant but for every first-person shooter out there. They need to feel just right with the color and size best suited to you. Of course, in the end, it all boils down to preference.

However, ever since Riot let players use custom colors for their crosshairs, some players have gone the extra step. The hashtag, a smiley face, a windmill, tic-tac-toe, hell, some players have even turned their crosshair into an among us character. However, few crosshairs have become as popular as the heart (or love) one.

How to change any guns crosshair

Before you make the heart crosshair, you first have to know how to make or change crosshairs in general. Basically, after having booted Valorant, go to the settings and then click on the 'crosshairs' heading at the top. Then, in the 'General' subheading, turn 'Use Advanced Options' on to make it easier to edit your crosshair.

Finally, switch to the 'primary' subheading and use the crosshair profiles option to create your new crosshair, which, in this case, is the heart one.

Valorant heart crosshair settings

Now that you've created a new crosshair profile, all you have to do is tweak the settings, so they match the ones we're giving you below.

• Color: Pink or Red 
• Outlines: On 
• Outline Opacity: 0.1 
• Outline Thickness: 1
• Center Dot: Off
• Override Firing Error Offset With Crosshair Offset: On 
• Show Inner Lines: On 
• Inner Line Opacity: 0.7 
• Inner Line Length: 3 
• Inner Line Thickness: 5 
• Inner Line Offset: 1 
• Movement Error: Off 
• Firing Error: Off
• Show Outer Lines: On 
• Outer Line Opacity: 0.7 
• Outer Line Length: 5
• Outer Line Thickness: 1 
• Outer Line Offset: 0 
• Movement Error: Off 
• Firing Error: Off

If the settings have been inputted correctly, then every time a semi-automatic gun with this crosshair equipped is fired, you'll see the shape of a heart. Alternatively, you could simply enter the crosshair code 0;s;1;P;c;6;h;0;0t;1;0l;3;0o;0;0a;1;0f;0;1t;3;1o;0;1a;1;1m;0;1f;0 to get it quicker.

Is the heart crosshair good?

Absolutely not. The heart crosshair is unfit for any sort of game mode, especially competitive. It is only there as a cosmetic 'showing off' crosshair and not for helping you aim at all. The lack of a center dot makes it especially bad for aiming, which isn't surprising as not being fit for actual gameplay is something that most of these 'trendy' crosshairs have in common.
