Find out all about How to use turrets in 7 Days to Die with our detailed guide today.

What's more, aside from the mere excitement of walking through a world filled with zombies, 7 Days to Die requires strategy to survive. The first and foremost safety need for them would be to protect their base camp from waves of enemies that attack every minute. With a strong defense system fortified with various gear, it will be able to withstand these relentless attacks. With the different levels of firepower, turrets become the backbone of any base defense. This guide will arm you with precisely that knowledge, to deploy these fearsome weapons to the best of their abilities and make your base an impenetrable fortress.

How to Use Turrets in 7 Days to Die?



Surviving 7 Days to Die requires that one takes extra measures to safeguard his or her base from the countless waves of enemies. The turrets offer a critical layer of defense by providing automated firepower to fight off attackers.

There are two major turret types available: Robotic and Auto. The former are manually operated; they require your presence to work efficiently. Although they can run on their own, they do much better as a quite powerful handheld gun. Also, unlike their Auto counterparts, Robotic Turrets don't need a power source. The Robotics Inventor perk does, however, significantly improve their performance when invested in.

Automatic Turrets come equipped with SMG or Shotgun firepower. The turrets consume a small amount of power and can be constructed with a simple menu through which you can adjust target and ammo settings. Upon activation, the Auto Turret starts scanning the environment and engages any hostile entity in sight by opening fire. Creation of an Auto Turret requires a generator, motors, and batteries. Connect the generator to the batteries, then connect the batteries to your turrets to secure a robust power supply.

Building Turrets in 7 Days to Die: How to Beef Up Your Base



In this game 7 Days to Die, one needs turrets to develop a strong defense against the ceaseless attacks of the zombie horde. These automated sentinels can be made from a specific mix of resources at the Workbench.


Mechanized Turret



This is the crème de la crème of turret technology, so advanced components will need to be used in a Robotic Turret. Primarily, it will require Robotic Parts at its core, complemented by a good quantity of Forged Steel to hold the structure together. Duct Tape, Scrap Polymers, and Springs are needed for binding it into one piece. Finally, Tech Planet magazines will provide the technical blueprints for the intricate details of its inner workings.


SMG Auto Turret



This is a versatile option requiring a Motion Sensor to detect approaching threats. Forged Steel makes up most of the turret frame, while the weapon system is built from Handgun Parts. The turret will need a supply of Oil to ensure smooth operation. Scrap Polymers add the structural integrity, and the intricacies of the design for the turret can be found in the pages of Electrical Traps magazines.


Shotgun Auto Turret



With more stopping power, the Shotgun Auto Turret is very much like its SMG cousin. Forged Steel will be needed for its frame, while Scrap Polymers will reinforce that structure. Mechanical systems will have to be lubricated with Oil. The turret will use a Motion Sensor to detect targets and Shotgun Parts provide a weapon core. Similar to the SMG turret, all of the critical technical details are stored in Electrical Traps magazines.


If one collects materials adequately to follow proper crafting procedures, it can ensure fairly reasonable security of your base. This also depends on the type of turret chosen, available resources, and the threat level and defense strategy that is envisioned.


Now that you know How to use turrets in 7 Days to Die, you can put this guide into practice and get the most out of the game.
