Mortar spot

That 3d spotting would have sense if mortars did something, but they can't kill a thing.

Also, not being able to deploy on your base removes the only option to fight back enemy mortars when your team is being pwned.

I'm using it regularly because other gadgets like airburst, are also useless. Wall and defibs or wall and mortar are the best setups for support. Smoke is redundant, airburst 25m range is a joke, specially on conquest or escalation, and the defending ones are usable, but they get destroyed after only 1 activation, so are also pointless.

Can't complete the last medic challenge to get elite because if it doesn't track. It gives 10 damage out of 1,000 for the airburst. I have 672 but it just stops tracking every game after the first.

I agree.  Plus you have to deploy them so close to the front lines also.  

Mortars are terrible on Mirak valley as attack in BT, i played a game the other night 7 support mortars ducked up the back we couldnt flank move forward, tanks were killed it was a s**t show.

Agreed as soon as i hear the recon drone i pull back destroy the drone and keep going.

But again nothing worse than having 3/4 mortars coming to you as a single mortar man.

Even with APS up protects you from one the others get you

Here is what you are supposed to do as an attacker in the first sector in Mirak BT:

Take the Jeep or the IFV and quickly drive around the left edge of the map to circle around  the objectives.

This way you will  reduce the bottle neck in the front line, you will force the defenders to hunt down the flankers  and make it easier for your team to take the objectives. Also  you will probably find and take out the mortar users on the back too.

If the vehicles are taken by someone else the alternative is to use the same path but do it as an infatry while being prone in the tall grass in the left of the map. If you do it right,  they will not notice you and you can help your squad spawn there.
You can even create new squads to get more random people  to spawn past the enemy lines. I did it a few times and  the more clever people in the team were thankful.
