Which turret do you hate being killed by the most?

[Michael828 816]

Everyone has a sort of grudge towards certain turrets that have given them a lot of trouble in the past and possibly still do. You can let it out here and state which one feels the worst to be destroyed by.

 

This topic isn't a rant in disguise, it could potentially give insight to the devs on which turret(s) causes the most frustration to players in the game, and they would hopefully respond by doing a little of their tweaks to certain parameters to make the situation better.

 

* Also please try not to post more than once on the same topic to make sure votes are from different users. Or you can tell me to remove your previous vote and replace it with the new one.

January 10, 2019: Here's a chart I made that shows all the replies so far, I'll update it regularly when I have time.

 

August 14, 2019: Shaft has almost passed Hammer in votes. Hammer has been #1 on this chart since its inception. 

 

August 21, 2019: Hammer has been dethroned. Shaft is the number one despised turret now.

 

November 9, 2019: Magnum has become the most hated turret recently, closely followed by Shaft.

Isida by far. Once it latches onto you, there's little chance of surviving. Firebird is far easier to defeat in my experience.

[Viking4s 10,791]

It depends on Developers nerving or OPing turrets caprice, used to be Shaft, now it is Striker and Hammer (with Duplet alt)

[Truthteller 4,204]

Freeze, no chance to retaliate  <_<

[Xone 382]

Shaft...

[The_Pakistani 16,768]

All

[GorgoBlesk 831]

I hate to be killed by camping Magnum because I feel like a target dummy when it hits me.

 

When I get killed by Shaft, I feel like a noob because I could prevent it by hiding.

 

Of course, I use modules against most OP turrets - Thunder, Smoky and Hammer (can have OP Duplet alt).

I don't mind being killed by someone with skill, timing and finesse. But, a Twins player who doesn't turn his turret will trigger me if I get killed by this primitive.

Twins or Duplet Hammer or when a Magnum snipes me from cross map. 

[Shadowmaster2.o 125]

 Hammer with duplet alteration

[SL_Kolla_2 7]

Thanks, didn't really know there was a similar topic, my bad.

 

 

From the replies until now, hammer(with duplet) comes first, followed by freeze and shaft. 

[Showbot 819]

Duplet hammer for sure, then Mangum when he kills me from right in front of me and then he Self destructs..

[SprayGround 2,851]

Isida, I hate that turret and when there is like 5 in enemy team it's nightmare.

[Reddkuest 76]

Dying to overheat effect from Smoky and Vulcan, and to a point, freeze alteration on Smoky. You can't protect yourself anymore against a single turret, you need to Protections for one.

 

I predict more burning/freezing Alterations coming up soon, practically turning turret damage into something else. More chaos, less tactics and skills is what TO devs sems to be aiming at.

I dislike those alterations because you can't protect yourself from them, and they kind of make the turrets less unique. Hopefully we'll get less of those type of alterations in the future.

 

 

Now it's magnum and shaft at second place behind hammer, I'm writing all the answers on excel so I don't forget them lol

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

For me, it's not the turret so much as the person using the turret that I find annoying.

 

I have witnessed many times over that there'll be a player who that once they see you, they'll chase you all over the map until you're dead regardless of whether or not there's other targets nearby.

 

I call these players "chasers" and they're extremely annoying.

 

They'll come in the form of short ranged weapons, mostly firebird.

isida because its embarrassing if they dont have dd and you had good health

[u812ic 1,629]

My top 3 in order of dislike:

 

1...Freeze

2...Hammer with alt

3...Isida

 

I have Vulcan/Titan. When Freezed targets me, I just sit there and let it kill me. That's all I can do.

Have you tried using the overheat to counter the freeze effect?

[Heles 9,220]

Striker with 8 missile alt 
Shaft 

And Hammer duplet alt
