    Hi everybody, is just me not able to hit with a full target Big-Berta-shot anybody apart with a lucky shot or if the enemy boat is completly not mooving? Do you think the Big-Berta projectile is too slow? I tryed with slower bots ships too with another account and its the same story; it is really annoyng cose if you adjust the aim the boat can stop the rout and go back (and no full hit) and if you dont adjust the aim the boat runs easily away from the explosion range; in both thr cases you can do just a very small % of the damages this weapon can do)... maybe the speed of this weapon projectile needs some check from the developers? Thank you everybody for reading or answering :)

    You have to be really good. Or use frost.
    And don't waste a shot on a speeder, unless you want them not to go where you aim.

    It should be harder to pand a hit with BB because it does hit hardest out of mortors (i believe) its just like the other hard hitting weapons like big torp is slowwwwww..... mines are only successful when one isnt paying attention. Anythingbthat hits hard should be dificult to master :) IMO

    As a big Berta user myself (or was), I don't think it should receive any buff at all. Nor should it receive any nerf. It's really easy to avoid, and if you do manage to hit, it deals good damage.

    But other than dealing damage, you could also use it to lure people out, or to stop their movement. It works really well once you've mastered it.

    It should be hard to get a direct hit, it's a frickin' nuke :)
    As @Wishaal and others have said, it either needs to be backed up by frost, or you need to use it tactically.

    Once your enemies are already reacting to a mortar of some sort you can then place your BB in the direction they are fleeing - often this results in them having to make a choice, do I stop and get hit by the first or continue on and get hit by the second mortar? Other uses are restricting movement, cut off an escape route, etc. Or even force people into mine fields :)

    Watch the waves and your enemies' movement :)

    yes that is true. The only way to hit speeders is to place mortar so far infront and some speeders go straight into the middle. Anyway HOW DOES IT DO 4000 damage: is it legendary or epic rank 5

    Pish, we speeder Will turn. Therefore, on speeders, it's like a short duration (but highly deadly) napalm.

    No, @The Otherguy

    And that's how overlapping mortars/mortar spam at low levels are deadly, you must choose which one might deal lower damage, direct hit of the 1st one, the second one,or edge hit of 2combined,blah blah blah

    Same with torpedoes. I'm getting tired of taking 90% of damage at the very edge of the ring.
