Guild Wars 2

Are turrets suppose to be incapable of critical hits?

That is correct. They do established amounts of damage that can only be altered via “Rifled Turret Barrels.” This has been and remains an ongoing debate as turrets are both stationary and more fragile than most other summons; if you wish to add your own thoughts upon improving them I would suggest searching this forum when you have the chance, there remains plenty of threads on the topic.

Was just wondering why that’s so. Their attack rates are slow, their AoE is minimal, they’re stationary, and ontop of that their damage is horrid, partly ‘cause they can’t crit.

Wanted to try a turret build for once in sPvP and quickly realized I would never be able to take this build outside of sPvP.

Thanks anyways.
