Version 8.0

•  "Blast radius increased slightly"

Version 9.0

2-0-5

•  Wall of Fire will now benefit from the Radius, Pierce and Damage buffs that the top crosspath offers

Version 14.0

• "Mortars should no longer display line of sight as they can ignore all blockers"

Version 15.0

• "The mortar’s projectiles should no longer visually drop back down the barrel"

Version 21.0

“

Mortar’s Faster Reload feels like a ‘required’ as a crosspath with Burny Stuff never scaling well on any path but it’s own. We like choices not requirements so to counter this we have made Burny Stuff scale with top-path damage & shifted a small amount of the speed from Faster Reload onto the base mortar and reduced base accuracy considerably.
— Update notes

”

•  Mortar base rate of fire increased ― 2.2s → 2s
•  Random spread radius increased ― 18 → 30
  • Note: Random spread with X-X-1 Increased Accuracy is unchanged (8)

Version 22.0

“

We felt like we set up the math quite well with Mortar changes last update, but regardless of this missed shots due to inaccuracy vs. attack speed turned out to be unpopular and impacted the middle path too severely. Fortunately this change led to the community finding some critical bugs in the middle path upgrades there since Mortar’s release! That said, since low tier Mortars were never powerful we chose to leave the speed buff from last update but revert the accuracy nerf.

”

•  Base accuracy increased ― 30 → 18

Version 29.0

2-0-3, 2-0-4, 2-0-5

•  Decamo explosion pierce increased ― 80 → 85 (bug fix)
•  Decamo explosion radius increased ― 50 → 70 (bug fix)

Version 30.0

“

Mortar top path feels too weak for the lead up to the Tier 5, so it along with the T5 have had some general number increases.
— Update notes

”

•  Upgrade cost reduced ― $650 → $500

Version 34.0

“

205 Mortar is not often used as base damage isn't relevant for Blooncineration compared to attack speed, following along with the idea of Top Path improving burny stuff damage in addition to base hit damage both of these paths will now benefit from increase burn DoT in such a way.
— Update notes

”

2-0-4, 2-0-5

•  DoT: damage increased ― 5 → 8

2-0-5

•  Blooncineration MOAB DoT: damage increased ― 100 → 150

Version 37.0

“

As the camo property has grown quite weak and currently Signal Flare is considered the best decamo tool, we want to push back slightly on its cost and by reducing the blast radius of the decamo area while emphasizing crosspathing for effectiveness there.
— Update notes

”

2-0-3, 2-0-4, 2-0-5

•  Decamo: Bigger Blasts pierce bonus increased ― +5 → +10

Version 39.0

“

We’re looking to shakeup mortar in a couple small ways this update, along with Striker Jones changes noted further on for ‘multi-mortaring’ synergy. From the base level Mortar has far more pierce than should ever be necessary at low rounds but doesn’t hit beefy enough for the low fire rate, so we are trading up some base pierce for damage, instead moving this lost pierce up into crosspath.
— Update notes

”

•  Explosion: Damage increased ― 2 → 3
  • Note: Shockwaves from Shell Shock and above unchanged, and The Big One and above unchanged

Version 41.0

2-0-4

•   Bloon Buster crosspath MOAB-class DoT damage increased ― 10 → 15

Version 43.0

“

Blooncineration’s 025 crosspath currently works so much better with external buffs so we're tweaking the 205 crosspath to feel better in some situations.
— Update notes

”

2-0-5

•  Blaze (WoF): Damage increased ― 2 → 3

Version 47.1

2-0-4

•  Resolved an issue where 204 Mortar crosspath would reduce MOAB DoT ― +15 → +25 (bug fix)

Version 50.0

•  Overall cost reduced by $150 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)

Version 51.0

•  Overall cost reduced by $200 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
