Description
The Turret is an advanced tower with long range and high damage. It cannot be purchased from the store, instead unlocked at Level 50 or via its gamepass, priced at 600. When you reach Level 50, you can claim the Turret through Rewards.
The Turret excels at single target damage, boasting a strong mix of high range, damage and firerate. However, it is also very expensive. It costs $4,000 to place it down, the third most expensive starting cost for any tower, only behind the Accelerator and Ranger It takes a cumulative total of $58,250 to reach the max level, making it one of the most expensive towers to fully upgrade in the entire game. As the Turret is not a humanoid tower, it is immune to all debuffs. If the XR500 skin is applied, it loses its debuff immunity, as the skin has a humanoid. The Turret is not immune to any debuffs applied by event enemies. Additionally, it has a larger placement footprint than all other towers. It can detect hidden enemies and has lead penetration.
The Turret has a placement limit of five per player.

Strategy
- The Turret has one of the most expensive starting costs for a tower, so it is impractical for early game.
- For early-game, using cheaper towers is recommended.
- Using the Farm will allow you to place a Turret earlier.
- It is advised to set the Turret's targeting to Strongest as it can easily take down stronger enemies, such as the Slow Boss and Giant Boss.
- The Turret gains hidden detection at Level 1 and lead penetration at Level 2, making it useful against enemies with these properties that appear in mid and late-game.
- The Turret has a larger placement footprint than other towers, so be aware of the space that it takes up.
- It is recommended to pair the Turret with the DJ Booth to increase its already long range.
- It can also be helpful at reducing the cost of its upgrades.
- The Turret is immune to all debuffs applied by enemies. This includes the Soul Stealer's firerate debuff or the Gunslinger's range debuff.
- The Soul Stealer also cannot spawn a Soul from it, as the firerate debuff is never applied.
- However, this is not the case for the XR500. As it is a humanoid, it can have debuffs applied to it.
