Guild Wars 2

Should I just give up on this trait ever being fixed (i.e. applying to every turret) in PvE and – what I really want it for – WvW?

296 days since the end of BWE1. Still waiting to be able to throw thumper turrets in WvW. Keep the dream alive! Hopefully at least before an expansion comes out. That would be nice. Just a thought.

Just testing it for a potential build… It also messes with the interaction between the explosives trait, accelerant-packed turret, and the grandmaster inventions trait, rifled turret barrels. It loses the 15% damage from the turret explosion which is ultra lame! No super-super “mines.”

Just did some more testing with a helpful fellow from SF, it completely removes the explosion if they kill a turret (instead of self-destructing) while deployable turrets is equipped.

It took them until January to fix part of it – the interaction with the Healing Turret toolbelt skill.

I’d like to hope they’ll have it fixed soon. I doubt it, though.

Well, it finally works with all turrets, even though it’s currently not in the patch notes. I don’t yet know if any of the other things you pointed out have been fixed. Man, turrets have had so many weird issues.
