Hmm, turrets? totems? where are they?

[oriya9]

I was wondering, which MMORPGs are giving you the ability to place an uncontrolled (auto)attacking unit on the field?
I recall Shaman's fire totems and Engineering in WoW, Rifleman's turrets in Aika and that's it.. I can't recall any other game
oh lol, I just got another one as I wrote the last sentence, Mythos' Gadgeteer(?) class.

But that's it, I'm under a complete blackout. anyone care to expand my list please? :3


Edit:
Guys, thank you all for your help!
I've made the list a little more convenient (the quotes were kind of hard to read).
please correct me if I was wrong in that list, didn't actually get to play all of these games.
thanks!

I think a class in WAR can set out a turret.

[sircusa]

Well the most popular theme is fantasy and that doesn't really have turrets. Totems are too shamanistic which doesn't go too well with Tolkien fantasy (the most popular kind or what started the fantasy scene anyways). That's why I don't get the hate for the engineer in Guild Wars 2, you'd think it'd be something fresh >_> Well there's my example.

[Jermatoo]

I think a class in WAR can set out a turret.

The Dwarf Engineer in WAR has a turret which autoattacks. The Necromancer has minions which autoattack and the Ritualist has spirits which autoattack in GW.

[Kashis]

Dofus/Wakfu.

[xDmonster]

In Dragon Nest, the priest class can set down a thunder relic that shoots lightning at nearby enemies. They also have a healing relic too that replenishes HP automatically to allies around it.

I'm going to get some sleep now, tired as hell, please keep them coming guys, I will add it to first post when I wake up.
thanks again everyone!

Savage 2

Conjurer can place a plant which just spits to attack in a close-medium range. Long cooldown, weak attack although I find it to be extremely annoying and so do most players hence the desire to kill them above players.

Same goes for Builders on Human side. Can place an automatic turret which I would consider a tad more powerful because of the really fast shooting but it's attack is weaker than the plants. So it kinda balances out.

Global Agenda Engineer(or w/e they are called) class can put up various devices which heal, amplify damage, shoot and etc. iirc.

I have not played for years so it may have changed, but I believe Dark Age of Camelot had an animist class or something like that who planted mushrooms that acted as turrets.

[janii]

League of Legends - Heimerdinger

[Cesious]

Champions Online has the Grimoire's Sigils, the earliest of which summon and attack with lightning(Can chain) to enemies in range.

DDO just added the Artificer class which has a spell specifically called 'Flame Turret'. A revolving turret that spews fire in every direction.

+1
also

Rusty Hearts' Natasha can set up turrets as well as Academic in Dragon Nest

[DarkAztaroth]

The alchemist in ragnarok online can summon a 'turret' like plant.

[oriya9]

Added to the first post. thank you guys!

One thing I noticed, not too many open-world MMOs has such thing.
but a lot of MOBA/instance-based games do have such thing.

@marcipaans
How could I forget Savage?! lol
you're awesome as always.

[Kaiellis]

DFO Summoners can spawn a large amount of mobs that fight for them for a brief period of time. Soul Benders can create demon circles, one of which deals damage over time on the enemy, and the Necromancer can summon mob(s) to fight for her as well.

[BooNeZ]

Heroes of Newerth - Engineer.

He has a turret
