Player attempting to place a turret

“Deployable AI-controlled assault rifle”

The Guardian Turret is a Medium Build specialization which allows players to deploy a stationary, automated device that fires at enemies.

The turret can be placed on walls, floors, ceilings, and objects.
When placed on an object, the object can be picked up by contestants, effectively mobilizing the turret.
It has a detection line-of-sight of 180° unless attacked from behind, in which case it will turn to face the attacker.
The turret has a limited range.
The turret will be destroyed if it takes enough damage.
The turret has 300 health.
When an enemy contestant enters the turret's line-of-sight, the turret will continuously shoot the enemy and track their movement until line-of-sight is broken or the turret is destroyed.
Turrets are solid objects and therefore can block a contestant's movement and projectiles, or be vaulted onto.
Turrets can be temporarily disabled by Glitch Grenades. Refer to: How to Deal with Turrets
Only one turret may be active at a time for a single contestant. Placing a turret while one is already active will simply move it to the new location.
After placing a turret, the ability enters a long cooldown* during which the turret cannot be placed in another location. Getting close to your active turret and holding the "Interact" button will pick up the turret and reset the cooldown of the ability.
The turret's line of sight is blocked by Goo, acting as an effective counter. Refer to: How to Deal with Turrets.

The Guardian Turret can be very effective at area denial, controlling choke points, and dealing high amounts of damage to enemies. It can be deployed in unexpected locations to surprise and attack enemies.
The turret has limited range and slow rotational speed, which may allow players to get behind it from a distance or run closely around the turret exploiting the slow rotation. Any melee weapon can take down the turret in a moments notice but the Dagger is able to destroy the turret in one hit.
