Add in that if there is even a possibility the Turrents attract more Grimm, Qrow's more than likely concerned his semblance will choose to go off at that moment and make it attract more Grimm. So if you factor that in, its more Qrow is trying to stop a problem before it can even become a problem. EDIT: Didn't see you had replied since this, so add in him thinking the turrents would attract more in addition to the ones attracted by the relic. Hmm, I suppose adding in Qrow's infamous Semblance does make things more complicated, so turning off the turrets would make more sense in that case. Nevertheless, SYUTK's point about Ruby being a blind follower still stands, hopefully that doesn't lead to her or Qrow's undoing this Volume. BlizzardDragon wrote:9. I swear Ozpin pulling shit like this is proof of why he hasn't managed to stop Salem in what seems to be at least '6 Generations! (The Wizard, the three before him in the Intro, Ozpin himself, and now Oscar, but discounting the Warrior King of Vale as it is uncertain if one of them is said King) Or over 240 Years! '(Assuming each incarnation shown in the intro lived around 40-60 years, adding in the Wizard looking to be in his 70-80's and Ozpin himself having an ambigous age but still being referred to as old putting him somewhere in his 40-60's, then adding Oscar's age of 14, that would be the lowball estimate)

'''Does he have a fetish for keeping secrets or something? '''Seriously, its at this point what he's doing is more damaging to his goals then what Salem is doing.

Hell, the Relics attracting Grimm raises a bigger question. Since its all but confirmed that the Warrior King was an Incarnation, and that the Sword he wielded in the War is speculated to have been the Relic of Destruction, why weren't Grimm swarming him in particular during the war? Definitely not a fetish, more like a habit so deeply ingrained that he's powerless to break it. Even when he should reveal something pertinent to their situation, he doesn't. So Ozpin does indeed seem like his own worst enemy in this case.

That's only if he used the Relic in the war. But if he did, I can only imagine the older Grimm saw what was coming and backed off, while the younger ones got vaporized in the ensuing blast. Not all Grimm are mindless moths, so to speak. Something like this anyway.
