Turret Gear

"you become a walking turret"

is a Hat in MooMoo.io.

Technical

 * It's a rotating turret on your head.
 * The Turret Gear shoots Cannonballs at nearby enemies, just like a Turret, but the animated top sprite does not need to face the target, and it instead just spins around.
 * It does 25 damage per shot.
 * It fires every 2.5 seconds.
 * It has a target range of 700.
 * You move at 70% of your normal speed while wearing it.
 * Costs.

Strategy

 * Turret Gear is OK to do a insta but bull helmet is more efficient.

Using

 * Try to hit an opponent with a high knockback weapon, like the Bat or the Polearm so the hat could deal some ranged damage.
 * Combine with a Monkey Tail and a ranged weapon to easily kite the enemy.
 * You can also use it to kill AFK players in their bases, as it shoots through walls (unless they use as part of the wall)
 * Don't walk around with this all the time, as it slows your speed noticeably.
 * Walk to an opponent, quickly equip it and then unequip. This will fire a cannonball and provoke the opponent.
 * An advanced version of insta-kill involves Turret Hat. Equip the Bull Helmet, then hit your opponent (using E) with Short Sword/Polearm, and switch quickly to Musket. (if you are using Polearm, then Crossbow will do) Simultaneously equip the Turret Gear. This is used widely to insta-kill Soldier Helmet users. It is very hard to pull this off without Hacking, but many hackers do it with ease.
 * For the instakill, hold down your cursor on the Equip button, and release when you want to wear it.
 * You can use this to counter Assassin Gear. Even when users of it are invisible, Turrets and Turret Gear will attack it.
 * To counter Bull Helmet users, you can equip Spike Gear. Then, when they hit you, hit them back with a Katana and quickly equip Turret Hat. If done quickly enough, they will instantly die. (Have the Hats menu pulled up, and swing by pressing E)

Against

 * Use the Wooden Shield or Soldier Helmet to negate the Cannonball's damage.
 * Use the Daggers, Booster Hat, Monkey Tail, or Shadow Wings to escape the Cannonball.
 * Use your superior speed to your advantage.
