Automated Turret (Fallout 3)

Automated turrets are robots in Fallout 3.

Specifications
Automated turrets can either be mounted to the ceiling or on the floor. The ones on the ceiling fire conventional ammunition at an automatic rate, whereas the floor mounted turrets fire laser beams similar to the laser rifle. Both varieties have unlimited ammunition. As a rule of thumb, odd numbered turrets use conventional bullets and even numbered turrets use laser projectiles.

Gameplay attributes
Automated turrets are often found in military installments or areas of historical value as a form of protection. Although not so damaging at lower levels, automatized turrets can intimately be quite deadly if you're taken by surprise by them. Both types of turrets can be frenzied by shooting either the targeting chip (on ground units) or the lens (on ceiling units). Similar to frenzied insects, the turrets will then fire on anything they see.

Appearances
Automated turrets are found in Fallout 3. Mark VII and Mark VIII turrets only appear in the Broken Steel add-on.
