Mortar Shell

A mortar lets you hit things behind cover, and this is its general-purpose round. It explodes on landing, hurts whoever is close, and chips at structures a little, but the game itself calls that damage minor. Do not plan a raid around it.

It shines where a rifle cannot help. Say a team has dug in behind high walls on the hill opposite your base and keeps peeking with a bolty. You cannot see them, but you know where they are. A few shells over the wall make them move, and a moving target is one your roof camper can actually hit.

The fragmentation shell is the one built purely for people, so carry both if you can and pick by target. HE when players are mixed in with turrets or deployables, frag for a group in the open. If you want walls gone, that is still a job for C4.

Each batch of shells eats a metal pipe, so once you plan to run a mortar, stop feeding pipes into the recycler.
