Please, PLEASE rebalance the US M2 Mortar

Just as the title says, please change the M2 Mortar to BR I or at least BR II if you want to have it in a different bracket to the British 2 inch Mortar, but please, move it, it has no place being in BR IV facing Tigers and Panthers, it can not pen them nor is it so vastly superior to any of the other mortars it faces, please, please, please if you ever are going to check into any of the suggestions I made, please let it at least be this one.

Anyways, thank you for reading.

If true then yes, I don’t play with mortars so I wouldn’t know. If it’s not a heavy mortar like the German and Soviet ones it’s not really worth being up there, as you said BR I or II (or maybe even BR III, I’m thinking they could add a new mortar to BR V allies, which would give the tech tree some nice symmetry).

Yes! The M2 Mortar has no place being so high up, is not like mortars are such a game changer for it to be equal to a freaking Ofenrohr haha

I recommend placing the M2 mortar at BR3—it lacks armor-piercing capability to destroy tanks but is slightly more powerful than the BR1 mortar.

I use Mortars for the most part just to target infantry as you can’t really kill many tanks with it. So, since I have nine slots, I have a level one Allied Mortar squad which I use the Smith and Wesson light rifles along with two Sten assaulters, I use them in both level one and level two where I have slots saved for them. I used to use them only in level five, but now only level one and two. I only use them on certain maps where I can pretty much predict where the enemy is going to deploy to defend a cap point, otherwise I don’t use them much at all anymore.

If the M2 is just slightly more powerful than the 2-inch Mortar that is in BR I then I think it should be BR II, also on my other post I suggested for the 80mm Mortars to be moved to BR III, so it would make more sense to be in BR II imo

Yeah, mortars are great and a very underutilized piece of equipment, I hope they would take my suggestion, as I think it would make people use them just a bit more

Some maps, if I am the assaulting side right at the beginning of the game I can get 20 to 30 mortar kills because I know exactly where defenders like to camp outside the cap point. Two mortar dudes plus a radioman so there have been games where I will have damn near 40 to 50 kills before I hardly left the first spawn point.
