Best crosshair for the Operator
The heavy sniper. Almost every shot is taken while scoped.
The Operator is the one gun where your normal crosshair is mostly irrelevant. The moment you right click, the scope takes over and the only thing you see is the sniper profile, which is a completely separate setting that most players never open.
That profile has its own dot size, colour and opacity. Setting it deliberately is the single highest value crosshair change an Operator player can make, because the default is easy to lose against bright walls. Your hipfire crosshair still matters for the moments you are caught unscoped, so keep that small and static.
Rendered straight from the code, pixel for pixel, at 4x so the shape is readable. This is Sniper Dot Crosshair, the first pick below.
Actual size. One game pixel per screen pixel, so at 1080p this is what you really see. Yes, it is that small.
Codes that suit the Operator
Sniper Dot Crosshair
A 1px dot for hipfire and a large red dot in the sniper scope. The scope profile is the point here: most players never touch it, and it is the only crosshair setting that shows while scoped with an Operator.
0;s;1;P;o;1;d;1;z;1;0b;0;1b;0;S;b;1;c;8;t;FF0000FF;s;2;o;1 Micro Cross Crosshair
One pixel thick, one pixel long, no gap. This is the smallest cross the game can draw, and it exists for players who want a reference point without anything covering the target.
0;P;o;1;0t;1;0l;1;0o;0;0a;1;0f;0;1b;0 Split Profile Crosshair
A thin cyan cross for hipfire and a red dot when you aim down sights, set through the separate ADS profile. Looks ordinary until you right click, which is exactly what it is for.

Found by reading the sniper section of each code, so this is everyone in the database who changed the scope dot from its default rather than everyone who plays Operator.
Frequently asked questions
- Does your crosshair matter with the Operator?
- Only the sniper profile does while you are scoped. Your normal crosshair disappears the moment you right click, which is why the sniper section of the settings is the one worth changing.
- How do I change the Operator scope crosshair?
- In Settings, Crosshair, switch the profile dropdown from Primary to Sniper. You can set the dot size, colour and opacity there, and it applies to the Operator, Marshal and Outlaw.
- How do I import one of these codes?
- Copy the code, open VALORANT, go to Settings, then Crosshair, click the Import Profile Code icon, paste and confirm.
