 The Camelot Herald
This post is to explain how Animists turrets work (with our current line of sight code), what the problems are, and what we are going to do to alleviate some of the frustration.
Animist targeting is implemented so that they can summon turrets to any place in the game where a player standing in the same spot can also be targeted.
Under the new system, now turrets placed on those areas will not be able to target players standing on top of the tower (in the case of a tower) or on the center keep (in the case of a keep).

Animistic in many of their features too are the temporary gods of fetishism, naguals or familiars, genii and even the dead who receive a cult.
