Since the patch that makes turrets target your target, turrets will now refuse to attack anything that’s considered a world boss. This includes dragons, the wurm, the fire elemental, the big nightmare tree in TA, Tequatl, and anything else that has those big red reticules and cannot be crit.

They refused to do that before.
The targeting change, in fact, may have been intended as an indirect fix to this issue, but the screenshot of the Livestream announcing the change was taken just after any kind of insight may have been gleaned; that might just be me, though, as I was hoping it would resolve the problem.

Everyone needs to make sure to report these. Squeaky wheel gets the grease and all.

I keep a running tally of Turret bugs on the Game Bugs boards, and that thread’s been acknowledged several times by staff – I’ll be replicating the tally as a Turret Bug Reference Guide on these boards after the next patch.

This bug, in fact, is the first one I have on the list.

Agreed. I bumped the thread with a reconfirmation of the issue, as well, in case the devs thought that it had been resolved by their targeting change.
