Their splash damage should be reduced to 9, same as mortars since they are using the same shells.

That’s not how it works.
MGs and rifles have completely different dmg even though they share the same cartridges.
Why? Because it’s artificial stats based on weapon type primarily.

I mean the point still stands, the RMN and Arisaka Mortar are both a bit OP rn, so reducing their damage to be in line with mortars makes a lot of sense. (Personally Id have both meet in the middle, buffing mortars slightly and nerfing hand mortars slightly.)
But they’re not.
So logically, it doesn’t make any sense.

I mean they both absolutely are, the arisaka less so, but it still is. I can easily say this as a user of both.
And give us 2 round of smoke shell pour those !

No thanks. both RMN-50 and Ariasaka Mortar shoot much slower than real mortars and require manual reload after each shot. Plus you are extremely vulnerable vs bolt rifles and mgs as you have to get closer to enemies. Reduce splash radius = kill both weapons. Arisaka actually should get a buff as it’s much weaker than RMN-50.

I think they are more suggesting reduce its damage to the same as mortars, while keeping the splash radius the same.
So every enemy would survive even a direct hit?
No thanks that is just stupid…

That’s as bad as nerfing splash radius. You will waste 4sec to reload and shoot once and only see white markers and maybe at best one kill. That’s how you kill weapon.

Somehow I doubt that, Nerfing it to do 10 damage is very reasonable. Honestly Id rather it and Mortars met in the middle and both did a damage of 15.
Not to mention it will regularly get kills of 10+ when used on cap points which is mental, that is clearly an OP weapon, sure you yourself have ranted about it being OP.
Any evidence?
The stats show it’s the same.
And Arisaka mortar reload faster than RMN

Lol this is absolutely unnecessary to nerf these weapons. Listen to me first.
Firstly, Rus are getting their backside handed to them left, right and center NA server BR5 because most people and most experienced players tend to play Germany. Rus cannot win even when attacking from my experience 70% of the time based on my personal experience. Not to mention the Germany win rigging toons thanks to abysmal design of this game for platooning (2 people playing TG2 and 1 infantry/APC etc.).
As for Arisaka mortar, meh, I personally feel like it is more rare than RMNs. I feel like its trajectory sucks and weird. Type Hei is waaaaaaayy better, and more reliable and fun than the Arisaka mortar.
Both FG guns and M2 carbines (even T20 to some degrees) are better than both of these 2 weapons. They are just memes. T20 rifles suck because they are super unreliable and reloading takes a year and 22 business days.
arisaka mortar not is op XD
ahhh an interesting way to nerf these monsters that came up from the biggest nonsense possible totally agree
I got squadwiped by _ , now that needs to be nerfed

look at the stats and see muzzle velocity + shot deviation now come back to me. Just because it reloads faster doesn’t mean it’s better. It requires even more planning how to shoot at the enemy and also round can deviate and doesn’t go where you want it to go.
I would rather they buff normal mortars tbh
It won’t be - every man and his dog can get 4 from het BP - RMN’s had to be purchased, which not everyone did.
And if you did buy htem (I got all 4 allowed) and you’re anything like me you’ve issued them somewhere and don’t know which squad(s) has them now!!
