Arcane Turrets are environmental objects found in the Underdark.
Involvement[edit | edit source]
Arcane Turrets are Constructs, used by Lenore De Hurst to defend her Arcane Tower. They are immobile turrets which fire at any creature that gets near. They fire four times per turn, dealing 1d4 + 1
Force damage with each shot to the closest target within a radius of 
20 m / 67 ft, and they always hit. These turrets have the 
Sturdy condition and are vulnerable to antimagic and
Lightning damage. Strong non-resisted attacks such as 
Eldritch Blast with 
Agonising Blast or Two-Handed 
Bludgeoning weapons can also be used to damage them.
The turrets can be dealt with in several ways:
- Arcane Turrets can be deactivated through restoring the power of the Arcane Tower with a
Sussur Bloom. - Arcane Turrets can be destroyed by reducing them to 0 HP.
- Arcane Turrets can be temporarily disabled by a Sussur Bloom, whether it is placed near them or held by a nearby character.
- If the line-of-sight of an Arcane Turret is broken, such as by using a
Fog Cloud spell or taking cover, it is unable to fire. - Arcane Turrets do not shoot at invisible targets.
- Arcane Turrets shoot at
Minor Illusions.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- Even after being disabled, the turrets can still be attacked, and XP is given upon a turret reaching zero hp.
Bugs[edit | edit source]
- If a Sussur Bloom is placed nearby destroyed or deactivated turret and then moved away, the turret revives and starts shooting again. This is not an issue if the Arcane Tower has been powered on before dealing with the turrets. The XP reward is only granted after destroying the turret for the first time.
