"The quick-to-reload L86 is among the most nimble of the LMGs, although its shot damage is on the low-end."
— In-game description


The L86, or L86 LSW in development, is a light machine gun available in XDefiant. The L86 was released in Season 2.

Overview[]

The L86 is a bullpup light machine gun that due to its compact size, has the best speed and handling of all light machine guns, in between handling stats for assault rifles and other light machine guns. In return, the L86 has a smaller magazine size at 30 rounds, and lower damage per shot. It has one of the fastest times to kill between 30m and 45m.

  • L86: A quick reloader and among the most nimble of the LMGs thanks to its bullpup design (magazine behind the trigger), although its per-shot damage is on the low end.
