Turrets
Discussions on Turrets have been going on since day one. There was only a very brief window when they were a truly viable means of game play (rather than a novelty or situational) and that was in PvP.
We’ve all been scratching our heads over this… They don’t produce much damage, they can’t withstand damage and they have long cool downs.
Other than that, they are wonderful : )
Edit: I also believe with the new focus on vertical game play in the new Maps, Turrets will essentially be phased out entirely.

In what respect OP?
They work fine and have had a recent and significant change as far as PvE is concerned.

Coglin…. that video…. tears streaming down my face…. my stomach hurts from laughing so much….
I posted a very similar topic, there were some more helpful and less jaded answers in it.
They seem to be pretty viable in PvE due to their 95% incoming damage reduction (unless directly targeted)
but
Frankly, from what I gather. After playing MMO’s since 1998. If you enjoy it, there’s nothing wrong with it. Play what is fun. If you were having fun with the turrets before you heard someone talking crap about it, what right do they have to take away your fun?
Hey,
Got the game not so long ago. Playing engineer casually. Really like the turrets, but people tell me they are not worth it, because they are easily destroyed.
Has there been any (official) word of adjusting turrets to be viable?
Cheers,
turrets are useless
they do mediocre damage , dont have much survivability, have massive cooldowns , got nerfed to hell , had its most useful traits removed , rifled barrels and auto tool regen
they ve gotten nothing but nerfs despite being useless
i guess turrets are useful from level 1 to 20 or 25 in pve

In PvP, turrets can be easily destroyed. In PvE, that’s been fixed, all NPCs now that 90% less damage from AoE attacks unless the attacks are directed directly towards them.
