Energy Turret

The Energy Turret is an ability in The Cycle.

Lore
Calls down a heavy automated turret that will engage any hostiles in view for its 90 second lifetime. Unlike the Heavy Turret it will NOT attack other prospectors.

"Built from a schematic found on Fortuna III, this turret carries a mix of pre and post-cycle technology to fire concentrated balls of plasma, similar to how Spitters and other beasts use the Cycle's unique energy for lethal purposes. Its overall performance is comparable to the standard Korolev Heavy Turret, but will not attack human enemies."

Summary
The Energy turret is a story mission-specific item much like the Lost Prospector`s Recall Teleporter it can only be obtained via completion of the Story Missions. Unique features of this turret is the sound FX, visual FX, and a unique new mechanic where the turret chirps with lines like, "There's one! Nevermind just a bird..." in a style of voice that may remind players of Clap Trap from the Borderlands Series. Whether or not it was the developers intention to reference this character or not is yet to be determined. Its attack speed is slower than the Heavy Turret, but it does 20 more damage per a bullet, and has a spawn cap of 3 turrets instead of the Heavy Turret's 2 (assuming the prospector using this turret has a low enough ability cooldown to have all 3 active at once.

Trivia
Many of the Energy Turret's voice lines are references to popular science fiction movies. Examples include:
 * "I'll be back" - Terminator, 1984
 * "Turret five is alive" - Short Circuit, 1986
