The turret emits a laser and when the laser becomes deadly, it hurts any player that it touches in the same fashion as a [[Thermal Discouragement Beam]]. It takes some time for the turret to be charged again to hurt you. In that amount of time, the laser is not deadly at all. If it barely hits any wall or floor it explodes into little pieces.
