Guild Wars 2

Today I did invasion, MK Lab, fire ele and other events and in each case, my turrets were melted as soon as i summoned them and b4 they even fired off a shot! That really sucks. I haven’t done too many big events on my Engi b4 and it was a shock to see how fast they got destroyed.

I think turrets should have their health doubled or event tripled or get some elemental immunity or something, since they can’t dodge things, otherwise they’re really quite useless imo, at least in the bigger events where bosses hit like trucks.

It may be a good idea to swap out your turrets to something else (grenade kit or bomb kit mebbe) during big, AoE heavy events.

Swaping out the clones/phantasms as a mesmer is sort of difficult though.
The “pet” system has some problems in regards to big events for sure.

Luckily turrets are useless in any other parts of the game too, so at least you wont need to respec from them.

You can’t expect every utility to be good at everything.

Engineer Turrets also still don’t target World Bosses, as far as I’m aware. Funny, that.
