The Tesla turret is a powerful turret dealing electric damage capable of hitting multiple enemies at once. The tesla turret fires an electric bolt that can bounce to secondary enemies in an arcing chain. Hits temporarily stun enemies, slowing them down, which works well in combination with other turrets.
Unlike the handheld tesla gun, the tesla turret does not require tesla ammo. It only needs electricity to operate. It consumes 1 MW continuously. On top of that, each shot consumes 12 MJ of power, which can cause electricity usage spikes during attacks. These can be offset by using accumulators (or steam storage and excess steam turbines).
Many larger enemies are segmented (demolishers, stompers and strafers); this means that they have different target entities that share a single pool of hit points. The tesla turret can be particularly effective against such enemies, as a single electric bolt can bounce between different segments of the same enemy.
The tesla turret is ineffective against asteroids as they all have 100% electric resistance.
