Rift Beam Turret

"The Rift Beam Turret focuses Alien energy at a single invader, passing over anything in the way."

- Fan-made Description

General
The Rift Beam Turret is the base counterpart of the Rift Beam, with the added ability to ignore any obstacles in the way.

It fires an unavoidable green beam at its target, sustaining it for a few seconds before recharging, much like its ship version.

Strategy
It is more difficult to shield-switch against the Rift Beam Turret due to its ability to pass over ships. Make sure you plan in advance and retreat the damaged ships early on.

Trivia

 * The Rift Beam Turret was first seen in Infected Outposts during the Outbreak event preview.
 * Originally called the Discharge Beam Turret, it had been renamed to Rift Beam Turret because of its similarity to the Rift Beam.
