The A280-CFE is essentially an accurized version of the [[A280C Blaster Rifle|A280C]] blaster that has been outfitted to work as a marksman's rifle. Following in the same vein as the [[EE-3 Blaster Rifle/DICE|EE-3]] and [[EE-4]] blasters from [[Star Wars: Battlefront (DICE)|the first game]], it functions as a burst-fire sniper rifle firing three shots for every trigger pull with a short delay between each burst.

Being built around the chassis and frame of the A280C, the A280-CFE possesses a comparable damage profile, killing in around 4-8 shots depending on range and as such it requires between two to three full bursts to connect in order to score a kill, depending on range and the target's class, and is capable of firing off a total of six bursts before overheating.

Compared to the single-shot sniper rifles, the A280-CFE provides faster follow-up shots at the cost of having less lethality for each individual shot. This makes it a somewhat more spammy weapon than some of the other alternative blasters since it requires more shots to kill but the A280-CFE's greater-than-average rate of fire makes it more capable at closer ranges compared to its competitors. This makes it a better weapon to carry in hostile environments and in situations where the player is at a greater risk of running into a close-range gunfight, a situation the A280-CFE is more capable of handling than its alternatives, thanks to its decent hipfire spread and faster fire rate.

"The sniper configuration of the modular A280-CFE pairs precision at longer ranges together with a burst option for greater effectiveness at medium range."
— In-game description

The A280-CFE is a primary weapon in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront II for the Specialist class. It is unlocked after getting 200 kills with the Specialist.

Overview

The A280-CFE is essentially an accurized version of the A280 and A280C blasters that has been outfitted to work as a marksman's rifle. Following in the same vein as the EE-3 and EE-4 blasters from the first game, it has the ability to be modified to function in a burst-fire mode.

Being built around the chassis and frame of the A280C, the A280-CFE possesses a comparable damage profile, killing in around 4-8 shots depending on range and as such, with the modification, it requires between two to three full bursts to connect in order to score a kill, depending on range and the target's class, and is capable of firing off a total of five bursts before overheating (with the 3-round burst modification active).

Compared to the other sniper rifles, the A280-CFE provides faster follow-up shots and a greater cooling power at the cost of having less lethality for each individual shot. This makes it a somewhat more spammy weapon than some of the other alternative blasters since it requires more shots to kill but the A280-CFE's greater-than-average rate of fire makes it more capable at closer ranges compared to its competitors. This makes it a better weapon to carry in hostile environments and in situations where the player is at a greater risk of running into a close-range gunfight, a situation the A280-CFE is more capable of handling than its alternatives, thanks to its decent hipfire spread and faster fire rate.
