— In-game description

Notes[edit]

  • Placing a turret while out of combat and then switching from some other trait to Rifled Turret Barrels does not increase the range; the trait must be active at the time the turret is placed.
  • Prior to the removal of this trait, a bug existed where the first attack after turret deployment would not use the 15% increased damage.
