Tourelle de toxine(s)/poison

This is an extract from the French version of Guild Wars 2, which has a race that uses toxin-throwers or at least toxin-thrower-like weapons. A possible translation could be "lance-toxine" similarly to "lance-feu" for flame thrower, but it sounds a little weird.

Des Tourelles de foudre asura, Tourelles de poison hylek et Tourelles de glace hylek sont disposés au nord de Tequatl, permettant aux joueurs d'endommager le champion draconique. Il s'agit du principal moyen d'endommager Tequatl, mais les joueurs peuvent aussi se rendre au corps à corps et lui frapper les pattes, bien que la tête subisse davantage de dégâts.

"Canon de toxine" also works, I believe.

canon à toxine

La réponse est un peu dans votre question... :-D

Si ça ressemble à un canon, pourquoi ne pas utiliser ce terme ? Ou alors "tourelle à toxine" comme le suggère Kévin (mais je préfère "à" au "de")
Peer comment(s):

agree Jean NICOLET : I go for "à" too. "de" would mean "made of"
