Guild Wars 2

Since i was getting some serous skill lag in SMC in a three way, i decided to try and throw down some turret’s and see what happened. Trying to let the turret do some damage while i kept myself alive. I was surprised that not only did my turrets not get instantly destroyed, they actually managed to get me some wvwxp. I don’t know if this was an isolated incident, and i still don’t know if i would actually ever spec in turrets, but i did use them successfully for the first time ever. And it made me think, that maybe if had the turrets explode on kill trait it would have been neat as well. I know a lot of people post on here about how much they hate turrets, so i thought i would at least share my one positive experience.

I have had a large amount of positive experiences with turrets. The problem is that it is generally just a sub par experience to other builds I use.

My current three (Read: only 3) problems with turrets are:
1) They are a pain to relocate with their lengthy cooldowns.
2) Their traits are very spread out (Really, the main offender is Accelerant-Packed-Turrets. I don’t want to go 20 into explosives for a turret build ><)
3) They have lots of bugs.

I actually don’t find their squishyness to be that bad, since they can be put out of range of most attacks through smart throwing. Also, if their cooldowns were significantly reduced, it would be a ton easier to deal with their being destroyed easily by bosses.

Honestly, I think those are what the general public feels are the biggest problems at well. At least I know I do, and most I know describe it the same way.

We need turrets like in Warhammer online
