Mortar in Clash of Clans

Overview of Mortar in Clash of Clans

1. Outline

- Mortar is a kind of heavy weapons and declares every 5 second per 1 time.

- When the gun is fired, it will make a terrible destruction against the enemy in its range. Powerful destruction and able to shoot in long range, Mortar are considered as weapons of mass destruction and is very effective against huge number of enemy forces but weaker combativeness, as Barbarians, Archers, or Goblins.

- However, there are downsides are inability to fight the enemy within 4 Brick, low fired rate and DPS. In fact, it needs time to reach the target (max than 1s), the quickly military as Goblins can easily dodge attacks if they move.

2. Tactical defense

- Generally, Mortar should be placed in the center of the base, it is best to put behind at least 1 block wall. Shoot range of Mortar allows it to attack from behind other buildings.

- Because it has fast and huge damage, so it can easily knock out the target.

- We should put 3 or 2 Mortars in center of the base; this will allow more guns and attack in the same area.

- At each level, the gun can kill 1 Archer have the same level in 1 shot (eg Mortar level 1 can kill the Archer level 1, level 2 Mortar kill the Archer level 2, etc ...

- It should be combined with the Wizard Tower, because the Mortar has a range of wide, while Wizard Tower will help protect it from the onslaught of air forces and cover the blind spot.

- Mortars should put together, do not put them in the wall pocket (if possible). When the mortars fuses , they will be able to create huge dead zones to destroy the enemy.

- Be careful when upgrading, because so many other players will take advantage of this moment to attack you again. Therefore, upgrade 1 Mortar / 1 time.

3. Tactical Attack

- Mortar is easy to fail if being attacked simultaneously (due to blind spots of guns and unable to defense air attacks). The military what has rapid fighting style as Barbarians or Goblins (after all resource structures destroyed all) can take a gun and go into the blind spot. However, for the Archer, they often stop and fire the gun before them into the blind spot, so it is better to combine with Meatshield gun.

- Mortar HP is quite low, so it is very susceptible to be attacked by Giants and Lightning Spells. Just one pair of Lightning Spells at a level consistent can hit any type of Mortar.

- Finally, because Mortar cannot against Air Force, it is easy to become a prey for Balloons, Dragons and Minions if there is no object of air defense.

- When attack, try to avoid to fire at one point/ spot. Thus, the Mortar will not work with full power.

4. Additions

- There is a high level of Achievement called Mortal Mauler, you will enjoy this Achievement when destroying some certain guns in the attack.

- DPS of Mortar is low due to fuse rate is low( opening rate: 5s / 1 time). Thus, if the DPS multiply 5 times it will help you achieve the extreme damage; this is a very important indicator for Mortar.

- Each time the explosions, the screen will vibrate slightly.

- Mortar has the least HP compared to all Defensive Buildings level max.
