Guild Wars 2

I have been experimenting around turrets now that mobs doesn’t consider them as #1 killing target, yet get killed pretty fast, but I see they do around 500+ damage per second with the Rifle Turret and not sure if that’s good, but it helps stacking bleeds while working with other kind of conditions. So, do you?

Nope.

I currently use my engineer only for Dungeons and killing dragons, so turrents are pretty much useless. I use Supply Crate though, if that counts.

Pretty much all turrets except thumper and flame. I mostly play PvP and WvW now though so you can still probably find a good setting in PvE.

I’ve used all the Turrets at one time or another. At present, I’m using a Healing/Rocket/Rifle/Flame loadout, because I like Turrets despite their weakness – and, of course, as of the 1/28 patch, they’re all turrets that scale with the user in ways that the others can’t (except for Net Turret, which only benefits from Condition Duration).

When/if all turrets begin scaling with stats, I may switch to Healing/Rocket/Rifle/Net or something. I’ll figure it out if it happens.

Net turret has become a staple of all my power builds in WvW. The CC it puts out is crazy once you get the timing down for overcharges and combine them with your own immobs. Now that the turret won’t overwrite your conditions with weaker versions I’m messing around with a condi build using either flame or rocket turret, but still figuring that one out.

Oh and it turns out net turret > then all but one thief I’ve faced since using it.

I find use in them all, really.

Thumper Turret has tons of health. Great in the Dredge fractal to drop as a distraction so Dredge don’t pick up your bombs. Useful in the Grawl Fractal boss as well for when the elementals are summoned; your turrets are immune to the fire (but vulnerable to agony).

Rifle Turret is a staple in Static Discharge builds.

Rocket Turret actually pumps out respectable damage. Throw it on the wall when you’re feeling lazy and it’s all good. Useful for enemies that have tons of health and tend to melee such as the Snowblind Fractal end boss, The Butcher, etc.

Flame Turret, I never use. Awful.

Healing Turret, some people love, but I prefer Med Kit. I’d use the Healing Turret, but there’s a conflict of slots.

Net Turret is more of a PvP item. Too short range for WvW, I’ve found, but it’s rally great for when it works.
