Guild Wars 2

With the changes to turrets being able to be critically hit and susceptible to conditions I have had some instances where I would double tap my healing skill just to have my turret explode as soon is goes down due to something like a lifeblast crit one-shotting it preventing me from getting the bulk of the turret’s heal, the option to blast the water field, and all of its condi clear.
As a solution to this I suggest that if a placed healing turret is killed while overcharge is off cooldown that turret will automatically use overcharge when it dies, leaving behind the short duration water field ect.

yea, why not.
+1

you could actually implement that for every single turret

on some it wouldn’t make sense…
Thumper releasing its knockback on death? sure, why not.
Flame-turret releasing a smoke field on death? makes sense as well.
Rocket-turret shooting a homing projectile at your current target suddenly? Sounds stupid.
Net-turret firing his charged stun/immob when destroyed? makes no sense as well.
Rifle-turret releasing a 10sec-long bullet storm before finally blowing up? wat oO

Doing this for healing turret alone is totally fine, and would give supply-crate a good edge as well.
Then again, they gonna replace supply-crate with a elite-turret anyways, so meh.
Do it as hotfix for the healing turret so people with lag or poor reflexes stand a chance.
But personally I didn’t had my healing turret preemptively being blown up so far, even in the middle of zerg-fights.
And it’s been some time since the nerf, so if I haven’t noticed any worsened behavior as of now, I guess the complains about healing turret blowing up too fast are really just a l2p or lag-issue
