“

Extremely fast firing automatic blaster, similar to an SMG in distant galaxies. Small and agile, it’s most effective at very close ranges, but overheats fairly quickly.

”

— In-Game Description

The CR-2 Blaster is a Submachine Gun in Fortnite: Battle Royale that was added in Galactic Battle.

Functionality[]

The CR-2 Blaster is a fast firing automatic blaster that overheats very quickly. The weapon has infinite ammo but will overheat after firing a few shots and will need to cool down. The cooldown period can be manually entered by pressing the reload key after shooting for a bit.

The CR-2 Blaster can continuously fire for 2 seconds or 25 shots before it overheats. This can be extended by waiting a bit between each shot.

The CR-2 Blaster is a Hitscan weapon without First Shot Accuracy.

Strategy[]

	This section outlines a strategy.
	Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.

Phasma's Blaster Medallion increases the amount of shots the CR-2 Blaster can fire continuously from 25 to 32 and decreases its cooldown time from 1.56s to 1.09s.
The CR-2 Blaster has a high fire rate and decent hipfire spread, making it very effective in close quarters engagements.
Because the CR-2 Blaster has infinite ammo, it's able to take advantage of its fire rate much more effectively.

Counters[]

The CR-2 Blaster has weak base damage, so staying within longer ranges when engaged with an opponent wielding it can be beneficial.

Trivia[]

The CR-2 Blaster is a modified Calico M950A.
Oddly, the CR-2 Blaster has multiple rarities with the same stats: the Common and Uncommon rarities share structure damage, and so do the Epic and Legendary rarities.
- Before v35.10 the Common and Uncommon rarities also shared their damage, and so did the Epic and Legendary rarities.
