Notes[edit]
- Prior to this skill's replacement, the following anomalies existed:
- The range tooltips of the individual mortar skills were increased by the trait Elite Supplies, but the range of the tooltips for this parent skill were not updated.
- Traits which affect turrets do not affect Mortar, but Tool Kit skills can be used to repair it.
- Mortar skills cannot glance.
- A Mortar skill still in midair when the Mortar expires will also disappear.
- Like turrets, mortar skills cannot critically hit.
- A player could use the mortar in between stability-granting intervals to gain 3 stacks on use and another 3 stacks under three seconds.
- All stability is lost when the player stops using the mortar.
