Specialists are the reconnaissance class who provide crucial information and keep the enemy engaged from long ranges. With abilities that help gather insight and tackle ambushing enemies, it's the choice of blasters that generally dictate how scary a specialist can be on the battlefield. Let's go over all the viable weapon choices for the best specialist loadout to use in Battlefront 2:

• A280-CFE: good damage per shot, burst fire mode, strong at medium ranges, and has a damage drop-off
• IQA-11: high damage per shot, strong at long range, can equip bolt speed mod, and has no damage drop-off
• NT-242: very high damage, very high range, best sniper blaster even against armor, and has no damage drop-off

Although these blasters are good choices, it's the added mods that make them take down opponents with added lethality. Mods like dual zoom, bolt speed, disruptor shot, and so on, can make specialists quite fearsome in open maps.
