Barrier champs and blights.

Both are way over tuned atm. 7 shots from cloudstrike to break a barrier? Boss level health on blights? Noticed this last week through the GM. This weeks as well. This is not in the normal range. There are very few effective anti-barrier weapons due to how overtuned they are.

  • I struggled to break the grimms barrier with pretty much everything but wishender. Was a consistent 1 shot break On -50 delta.

  • Barrier sucks this season, I've resorted to using good old Arby it still 1 taps the bubble.

  • Not sure as to barriers as I tend to run at them with the sword, but the blights are the real end game! I think it's obvious that blight armour is tied to the power scale, rather than in their own right. Still, better than the OP blight damage from the whisper mission where it killed you in 0.5 seconds.

    • All champs should be 1 shot to stun with their respective countermeasures.

    • Having to shoot a sniper 2-4x (depending when you get the shot off as the shield is coming up) to break the barrier shield is bad... no way I could even think about using a primary like HC this season for that. Shield health should not scale with delta. The champs already have so much health at -50. Blight health is also a big issue, if you use a primary its like 5-6 mags to break it. With a sniper it can be 1.5 mags (if you dont want to jump over to them in this weeks mission).

      What seems to work for me for Barriers is timing the barrier dropping, soften up with a lightning grenade while I come in airborne with Perigrine Greaves and shoulder charge. Usually results in a kill. Clan knows my strat so they're ready when they see me charging, in case it's not a ohk.
