iIs it just me or are turrets no longer safe anymore

I agree. they nerfed the damage. and the range is less I believe. and their HP is less too. and the minions are stronger. its stupid. you get turret dived by squishies at level 2-3 lmao.

TY that is precisely my point. I don't usually come on forums much but in last 20 games or so in this preseason I have noticed what I said about d turrets to be true. So i decide to see who shared similar opinions about this situation. D constant diving by squishes is made even worse when u literally get killed and pray that turret takes away their last 10 HP only to see it not happen cuz,dashes,blinks and flashes or even worse free armor from an ability eg graves. it is frustrating and makes u feel cheated

to be honest... turret system is a joke... it needs to be re-working...

Amen to that, at this point they serve no purpose

We are supposed to protect turret Not other way around

Yes but at the early game turrets are also supposed to protect us.

We are supposed to protect turret Not other way around

that argument have always been stupid. a turret is a defense mechanism, meaning IT IS THERE FOR PROTECTION. you keep turrets alive so that the protection can stay alive and be a deterrent from your nexus. dont be so damn moronic.

so sick of fools saying this for multiple seasons now.

Maybe they made a LC$BIGPLAY$ detector in the turrets that makes the do less damage if you are doing a flashy towerdive. Even if the little guy under turret it's defending himself with everything he has.

lolz legit

It's not that they are no longer safe, it's they are no longer targeting champions when they are suppose to. If you hit a champion with a ranged ability inside turret range, it will continue to target the minions around it. The turret will only target someone, from what I've observed, when they auto or do a melee ability. what makes it worse is that turrets are starting to break with just a flash, which is not what they were doing in season 5..

I ty u 4 laying it out very clearly. I am glad someone gets what i'm saying or was trying to explain.

Turrets were never intended to be a guaranteed safety spot. With that said I do feel they are overly weak at present. But that could just be me being biased based on what I am used to.

u are not wrong,but in d early game they should at least provide protection. not just sit idle while u get dived on at level 3 and get bursted

I do it as quinn... The damage is pretty paltry

They are? Please, show me those successful bronze turret dives at level 4.

what does a player's rank have to do with it. I am voicing a legitimate concern I would appreciate it if u would stop bring irrelevant information into a discussion. ty. We are talking turrets not players' rank.

Yes because when starts rushing like a psychopath at level 2 it's time to stand there and fight while your hp melts faster than Ice Cream on the sun.

Have you tried not losing? You wouldn't have to depend on your turret and getting carried

I can win my lane fine,however don't misunderstand me. i don't depend on them much nor do i mind carrying or be carried(team game & teamwork OP) (i'm support main). on some teams i get to play on,my team mates can be either be better than me some in aspects or worse than me,so ofc i depend on d team to carry us to victory. U can't win every game or every lane matchup I am saying that at present d turrets offer nothing when u get dived on. I have been in games where i am right next to d turret and get attack but d turret does not fire at the offending champion.

Is it just me or in patch 5.23 turrets have more hp and are generally stronger.

more HP but weak damage and no resistances. so it's like wet confetti,looks good but does nothing.
