Portal 2 Hints
How can I destroy that annoying turret?
1 of 7: When you first enter the chamber, run up to the base of the light bridge so you'll be safe while looking around to see what all there is.
2 of 7: Over in one corner is a vertical laser beam. You'll need to use it along with some redirection cubes to fry the turret.
3 of 7: There are two cube tubes in the chamber ceiling, but they won't drop any cubes on their own.
4 of 7: While staying out of the turret's sight, set one redirection cube so that it redirects the laser toward the light bridge.
5 of 7: Pick up the other redirection cube and edge over to where you can use it to redirect the laser at the turret.
6 of 7: Remember that if you can aim at the turret, it can aim at you. Duck back under cover if you start taking hits before getting your laser redirection setup perfected.
7 of 7: After you touch the turret with the beam, it'll catch fire and blow up.
