Playstyle

Fast-moving flanker. Use the lighter handling to rotate fast, hit enemies from unexpected angles, and escape before they can respond.

Tactical Tips

Don't sit still — the XM8 is built for players constantly on the move.

The extended mag upgrade is important here — 25 rounds goes fast.

Combine with a fast character skill to maximize the mobility advantage.

Aim for the head — the good accuracy makes headshots consistent.

Compensator, Foregrip, Extended Mag (push to 35+), 2x Scope. Keep setup light to maintain the mobility advantage the XM8 offers.
