Engineers can easily place their turrets in mid air. This makes them immune to melee-weapon aoe damage, nades and whatnot…
They can only be hit by single target longrange weapons.

This heavily influences pvp against turret engineers. I see many are using this bug…

No, I´m not new around here. I just want to see this obviously broken “Feature” fixed.
I know it´s been around for quite a Long time now but in regard to turrets ist just plainly annoying.

For your Information, on many maps it´s possible to jump from a higher ground and then place the turret in the air. At this Point ,yes, the turret is immune to everything going on in melee range.

That doesn’t justify it regardless. in Foefire Engineers can place the rocket turret in air and make it completely impossible for melee classes to get to it.. The fact you cannot melee it with abilities and are limited to sheer white swings is absolutely stupid. Especially when you have to jump and do it or just try to ignore it.
