Is the Apex Legends M600 Spitfire worth using ahead of Season 18? Respawn Entertainment's battle royale comes with a wealth of weaponry and the M600 Spitfire slots into the light machine gun (LMG) category as one of the larger weapons you can obtain over the course of an Apex Legends match.
Requiring light ammunition, the LMG is perfect for unloading a barrage of bullets onto a target and with the right attachments equipped, it's very easy to break armour and down opponents with ease in casual and ranked matches.

Is the M600 Spitfire good in Apex Legends?
The Spitfire has a long reload time and it has one of the slowest walking speeds when aiming down the sights – so why consider it? It’s simple, really. The weapon packs so much of a punch, that each shot can do a huge amount of damage. It deals 162 damage per second and it only takes 11 body shots to kill a fully armoured enemy, it’s worth grabbing out on the battlefield.
There you have it, that's all there is to know about the Apex Legends M600 Spitfire LMG. For more Apex intel, check out our Apex Legends weapon tier list highlighting the best guns to use right now.
