'''Laser turrets''' are an advanced defense building with longer range than the [[gun turret]], infinite ammo, laser damage and use [[Electric system|electricity]] to operate (and a smaller amount of energy when idle). It is important to note that gun turrets with [[Uranium_rounds_magazine|uranium ammo]] will, nevertheless, deal significantly more damage (4-7 times more).

Laser turrets are an advanced defense building with longer range than the gun turret, infinite ammo, laser damage and use electricity to operate (and a smaller amount of energy when idle). It is important to note that gun turrets with uranium ammo will, nevertheless, deal significantly more damage (4-7 times more). Each shot costs 800kJ of energy; as the shooting speed increases through upgrades, so does the power required to keep firing.
Using laser turrets to ward off attacks can cause electricity usage spikes, these can be offset by using accumulators (or steam storage and excess steam turbines).
Gleba
- Pentapods have high laser resistance (50% for wrigglers, strafers, and spawners, 80% for stompers) so it is very ineffiecent to laser turrets against them.
Vulcanus
- The local fauna is completely invulnerable to laser damage, rendering them useless.
