Can we make turrets not be worthless?

The amount of times I’ve been dove this season is way to much. The enemy just face tanks the turret and dives you because turrets don’t do anything. Their damage is laughable at best, they get melted like paper, and their targeting is horrendous.

How often does some full tank Warwick just sit under the 2 fountain turrets tanking your entire team and the two turrets for half an hour? Why is that allowed?

How about how a zed can 100-0 you under turret and the turret not even touch himv

Right now turrets are just ambient gold sitting on the map. That’s all.

Blame item 3047 or blame the reasons why it exists (strong damage dealers)

That item is almost mandatory since it reduces damage from towers, minions, monsters, and Yasuo

I may be only level 40 and not play often but I really do agree i try to play safe under towers but by level 5 they can pretty much tower dive me and i can't farm safely.

Would making turrets deal true damage solve the issue ?

Not sure as to how it would actually play out in reality, just speculating.

I'd say either something like that, or make turrets do %hp damage based on how many shots you take. like 10% then 20% then 30% and so forth and so on.

Making them do true damage wouldnt do much because they already have 50% armor pen.

The targeting is the bigger issue. Most of the time the turret wont target the enemies anymore.
