'''Turret Creep''' referees to an offensive strategy that players employ when clearing [[Enemies#Spawners|biter nests/spawners]] in which players place [[turret|turrets]] around target biter nests from afar. This prevents [[Enemies#Creatures|biters]] from aggroing on the player and is a safe, if controversial, way to clear nests.

==Technique==
Turret Creep strategies frequently make use of laser turrets as they do not require any outside input and can fire for a short time without any electrical connection, although high voltage power poles are sometimes used to power them for longer periods of time.

Because there is a reach limit that prevents players from playing turrets from afar, players will frequently run in using [[armor|armor]] and quickly place turrets to kill the enemies and will then retreat; thus letting the turrets creep forwards. This practice gives turret creep it's name.

Some players who use mods that allow them to place items at a greater distance will stand outside of aggro range and will let the turrets kill all the enemies and spawners before the player moves in to collect the loot.
