How to not be bothered by mortars:
1) equip turbo
2) equip rudder
3) dodge mortars
It's not any more difficult than that. Most mortar complaints are because people see red circles everywhere and instantly think "OMG this is so OP!!!!!11!11!". That's utter nonsense because a red circle doesn't mean huge damage. If you're at the edge you only take a bit, so when there are multiple mortars overlapping, it's up to you to do smart positioning. Which is why you need turbo and rudder, so that you can turn and move fast enough to position (or get out entirely) before impact. Tbh you can also go double turbo and laugh as the enemy fails their predictions, but the rudder combo always had my preference.
Do you really think that I don’t know that I have to leave the red/orange circles or being at the edges deals less dmg !!!? Who do you think you’re kidding ? Turbo/rudder combo works but at expenses of having less HP due to not being able to equip a shield (mk5) so my question is what’s the expenses for the ones that use 3-4 mortars ? Are they getting punished for using extremely high dmg mortars like firebomb and bigberta !!? The answer is no they are not and this is called IMBALANCE ... that’s my whole point there.
Also, ask yourself the question, if there are 8 mortars being fired at you, would you have been any better off if you got hit by 8 sniper shots? Or 8 torpedos? You'd be dead faster than with the mortars I can tell you. It's not a mortar problem, the problem is that you got yourself into a position where the enemy is firing at you 8 times.
I absolutely rather people try hitting me with 8 Tops/snipers at least I know those people used a bit of skill to lead their shots and ride the waves so they could land a perfect shot on me and I would have no problem dying to any of those weapons ...
The argument about nightmare players not having a say in this is stupid. All nightmare players were at 100 infamy once and fought their way up. I'm 3400 infamy now, but I can tell you, when I was between 1k and 3k there were just as many mortars. Occasionally I still see them, 4 mortar shooters. I'm just not bothered by it, because it's not half as powerful as people like
@HighHammer want to make you believe.
