Engineer Mortar and Spotter Scope Additions for Enhanced Gameplay
Heres a suggestion, give the engineer a mortar to replace his launchers. Cannot be fired while held but can be when on placed on the ground like a spawn beacon. While deployed allow us to mount it similar to a vehicle and grant us a mini map to target the location we want to shoot, make airtime and distance really play a toll and actually take skill to aim. You get 10 shots. However, if you have a recon on your squad that marks players or vehicles, it will automatically lock on regardless of airtime. Like the talon. It can only be a recon on your squad. If nobody is recon than heres another suggestion for engineer. Replace his drill with a spotter scope that immediately targets anything and gives 25 xp instead of 10 xp for marked kills, the mark last 50% longer. You can use other engineers spots for your mortar or your own. This will definitely spice up gameplay, great land control with a downside of exposure through the air, and helicopters absolutely decimate the mortar
