Mechanics Question: Machinist - Rook Auto-Turret

[Ranox]

Still holds true to to turret attacking things you yourself haven't attacked. They should really change the wording in the description.

I believe you are seeing anomalous behavior against raid bosses because it is raid bosses that are the exception. You and everyone else get put into a combat state the moment someone engages the boss - so it's not that you attacked the boss, it's that the boss has started attacking you .

It'll start attacking when you generate any form of enmnity (they appear on your list). You can see this in action by popping open a treasure chest mob with a turret out.

It'll change when you use a weaponskill on a different target.

[Ranox]

I get the emnity part, I mean the part where it says it will only attack targets you are casting an ability on.

Kinda wish we had pet actions for the turret.

I think SMNs would take issue with that.

[MagiusNecros]

I think SMNs would take issue with that.

I was thinking more basic actions of attack this so I can attack that. I doubt SE will be giving any new pet actions anytime soon since SMN in HW got none and SCH got a pet action that kills their pet.
