1.3 Release General Discussion
Mattilald Anguisad:
Actualy merc is better even in very short range than non-heavy gat against junkers. The spread on gat means most of shots will miss junker.
Flak will allways be better with pugs (and against ships with short armor rebuild time). Otherwise I've known light mortars are underutilised for a long time now :)
Piemanlives:
I recently ran with an Artemis/Mortar build on my junker, fairly effective.

Eh. It needed more fire.

I actually disagree with this. Due to the larger clips, mortars are easier to prefire and spend more time being fired than being reloaded making them superior to catching the enemy without armor. Of course knowing when to prefire, hold fire, and reload are a bit of gunnery art; but just because it isn't simple doesn't mean it's not superior.
Ariden:
I feel that the flak is more useful on slow ships. Call me old-fashioned, but I always feel more confident with a good gat-flak combo on my pyramidion (especially when my crew is inexperienced). The mortar, however, is great for the front gun of my squid, and it works miracles with an experienced gunner.
