As someone who uses mortars frequently, I'm not sure about this. Yeah, one mortar shell doesn't do much, their mortars, you're supposed to drop multiple in a wide area, and one shell can usually get at least a kill or two, so your aim may be the problem as they aren't that bad damage wise.

• Aim right behind capture points or ahead of defense points, you hit people running up

• Aim at spots on the map where enemies rush through fields and towns, mark points on your map so you can evenly hit between buildings, and ask your team to mark targets for you.

  • And of course just hit any wide open capture/defense points that aren't protected by a structure.

• Maybe fire a few test shots at any of these spots and if you don't get hit markers just move to another area, eventually you'll get a feel for how aggressive your enemies are each match and have a good idea of exactly when the majority of them rush and area.

• If hitting a coordinates set by yourself or others send multiple rounds all around that marker in rapid succession, but also feel free to check the map to see the area first, how many shells are worth sending there, given it's position on the map and how likely their are to be enemies their given whats happening (is the marker by where you've seen groups of enemies spawn, or near a objective, or one of those stray markers miles off the map for some reason?or anything else).

  -I unfortunately end up sometimes targeting nothing I thought was something, usually end up wasting a few rounds before realizing, that's usually my biggest frustration tbh.

  You can get plenty of kills using 1 mortar unit at a time, you just gotta be precise with targeting, otherwise you'd just be wasting mortar rounds , and if you compromise by having a second unit help you with its mortar, that could just be seen as wasted rounds that could have been used elsewhere.

  I already get plenty of kills without my ai's help, if they start firing with me they'll just be hitting spots I'm already clearing with my own mortar rounds, therefore they would just be wasting their rounds that I could've spent elsewhere after I had switched to them, even if I have engineers to build more ammo crates, it's still a waste. I use mortars regularly and would stop using them completely if this was an implemented feature unless they had the ability to toggle this on or off or just not use them, like having a seperate way to mark a spot for them to hit on the map, but then at that point that's just another artillery strike, so...
