Nemesis spray pattern

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

Your mouse path — start on the crosshair and follow it down. The bullets climb the opposite way; this is the movement that cancels them.

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 Nemesis spray

  1. Pull down to cancel the climb. The Nemesis rises about 8.5° over its first burst — drag straight down to keep the crosshair on target as it climbs.
  2. Counter the horizontal sweep. After the climb the pattern swings 1.8° across — the spray drifts right, so ease left first, then pull hard right as it sweeps back left.
  3. Reset between bursts. Recoil fully resets after about 0.40s off the trigger — tap-fire or burst at range, spray up close.
  4. Drill it to muscle memory. At 582 RPM a full 20-round spray plays out in ~2.06s. Trace it in SprayTrace at 20% speed, then ramp to full, then go Blind.
