turrets in kobold island challenge

[chodelord]

they appear to suck

please add a large radius aoe taunt so at least they get aggro before the extractor

also add a "repair" aura of say 1% per second per turret level so that turrets close to the extractor can both heal and protect it

They don't need to do more damage but having the turrets there should at least help protect the extrators until you can get party members to kill the mobs.

In my experience:

Upgrade them to tier2. I find (at least at lower levels) that I don't usually have to worry about
that extractor after I upgrade the cannons. Sure, some mobs will attack the extractors, but
only do a little damage before the gun kills them.

One upgraded cannon per small extractor is usually sufficient. Placement is key to make sure the
cannon can cover most of the extractor.
