This is another video detailing some of the inherent problems with the mortar in the current beta. It's quick, to-the-point, and details the problems with AoE, knockback, long fuse, excessive bounce, and lack of MA capability. It's pretty clear that the mortar needs tweaks. As it is, it's an unreliable weapon. It is interesting to note that the Medium Soldier Class actually has more powerful weapons than the Heavy Juggernaught. The Grenade XL is a better weapon due to it's rapid fire, multi-spread design, and the disc launcher is stronger and direct with no falloff in comparison to the Heavie's Green Disc. That's pretty depressing...less mobility, less damage dealing, in exchange for cumbersome movent and some extra armor. Doesn't seem right to me. Thank you for watching, and if you agree with these sentiments, please feel free to comment in the T:A Beta - Feedback & Constructive Discussion under my thread: MORTAR NEEDS LOVE! High Rez Version: forum.hirezstudios.com It's my hope that these problems will be rectified to bring the mortar back to it's former glory.
