How to Destroy Turrets in Atomfall

This guide will tell you how to destroy Turrets in Atomfall with two separate methods, including a strategy that you can use right at the start of the game.

How to Destroy Turrets in Atomfall

Here's how to destroy Turrets in Atomfall: all you need to do is shoot the glass dome with lights inside directly above the guns. You can potentially kill a turret with 2–3 shots from a pistol at close range if your aim is true. Once destroyed, that Turret will be disabled for the remainder of your playthrough.

Alternatively, you can use the Signal Redirector tool to disable a Turret's power source if there are wires nearby. It should be noted that not all Turrets have exposed wires that can be affected by the Signal Redirector; some of them will simply have to be destroyed with force.

Turrets can kill you very quickly if they lock onto you. Fortunately, Turrets can't turn very quickly and you can strafe past them if you're at an ideal distance. Alternatively, you can get closer to a Turret (or bypass it entirely) through clever use of cover. You should never try to tank the damage they put out if you need to pass through an area.

You may be tempted to use some of your more powerful weapons to destroy a Turret such as the Sticky Bomb. Unfortunately, the Turrets are heavily armored and this isn't an ideal strategy. I personally landed two Stick Bombs on the side of a Turret in The Interchange and it remained fully functional.

Since a destroyed Turret is destroyed for good, you should always take the time to shoot them with a weapon or disable their power source with the Signal Redirector. You never know when you'll be running for your life in an area, and the last thing you need is an extra enemy to fight.
