The firing sound... the beeping when it's overheated.... <3

More importantly, it has a very impressive set of stats. At X it feels roughly on par with the Harrier for damage, and has 102 rounds before overheating completely.

The spread and recoil are worse, but not by a huge margin. Everything about this gun feels great.

On the livestream you said you wanted to make a great caster assault rifle, and I will say, mission accomplished.

The UR I wanted the most. It's the one I don't have, and I probably won't get for a long time.

My favorite weapon from the DLC so far, absolutely LOVE IT.

Only have it at level III but it's already great.

I'll probably never get it at X. It's so discouraging. :(

Same here.  I hate the rotten good for nothing store.

Good to hear... I wonder how it is on level 1 thou.

But yeah. I would have wanted thermal clips instead.

I have to agree, it's the best gun of the batch from Reckoning. The Spitfire deserves the UR label but could use a slight change to either weight or damage. I'm not sure how the BPP and Venom got labeled UR. Even on EDI, the Venom was lackluster.

Single-clip DPS is heavily below that of the Harrier, and that doesn't include the overheat and standard cooldown times, however the lower recoil and better overall accuracy compensate for this by keeping damage consistent for longer ranges. Furthermore, it also scores itself a weight of 1-3-0.8, so it's caster usable, and with less recoil you are free to add whatever mods you like to the weapon, without requiring negatives.

However, I would sincerely advise using an extended clip, as with all cooldown weapons. It gives you a much better reserve amount to go through and heavily increases your overall DPS, as you won't need to get ammo and the extended bursts are far more rewarding.

The only good weapon introduced in Reckoning. I can't wait to level it up some more!

It's already good at level 1.

I don't even consider the overheating an issue, with extended magazine I never even managed to empty the clip in the game I played.

Agreed, extended magazines are always a must on this kind of weapon (especially since they usually regenerate ammo based on max capacity).

It's awesome on caster classes. Much better than the Collector SMG.

The Executioner and the Suppressor are amazing as well if you can get headshots.

The suppressor isn't to bad, I kind of like it.  Great RoF, no recoil, but it runs out of ammo faster than the harrier.  The BPP isn't to bad either.

But, the Spitfire is a disapointment, without a doubt.  The adas is trash, and the venom kind of sucks too.

I don't know the stats, but it does feel weaker than the Harrier.  However, you can fire continuous with 109 bullets.  I wouldn't be surprise if there was a very slight damage boost in the future, but as it is right now, I don't see a need.  The gun is a perfect match for the Cabal and any adepts who focus on powers over guns.

Here as well, store is funny as it kept dropping while I wanted somewhat of a balance between the new AR's.

Have to give this weapon another go, tried it once yesterday and found it to be....meh....but honestly it had been a long day, probably a great weapon based on what I have read.

It's a godsend for the GethJugg.

Also very good on the Collector and any kit that has stability passives
