Damage Shields are pools of temporary health that take damage before your [[Health]] is reduced. There are two types of shields: [[Bullet Damage|Bullet]] Shields and [[Spirit Damage|Spirit]] Shields which block only their respective damage types. [[Damage Resistance|Damage Resistances]] do not apply to shields. Once damaged or fully depleted, they will fully recover after some time.

'''Barriers''' are a temporary pool of additional health that takes damage before [[Health]] is reduced. Barriers block all incoming damage from any source, with [[Damage Resistance]]s applied.  


== Recovery ==
== Notes ==
If not fully depleted, shields will begin recovery if they haven't been damaged in the past 20 seconds. This recovery will be interrupted by taking damage.  
* Damage to barriers is affected by [[Damage Reduction]] and [[Damage Amplification]].
* Any instance of excess damage dealt to completely destroy a barrier is then done to health. For example, a Dynamo with 100 barrier health and 0% [[Spirit Resist]] takes 168 spirit damage from Vindicta's Assassinate. 100 spirit damage will break Dynamo's barrier, the remaining 68 spirit damage is done to health.
* Healing amplification and [[Healing Reduction]] effects have no effects on newly created barriers. The only thing that can affect value of a new barrier is {{HeroIcon|Rem}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Tag Along}}.
* Bullets with {{ItemIcon|Armor Piercing Rounds}} can ignore barriers.
* [[Pure Damage]] ignores barriers.


If fully depleted, shields will begin recovery after 60 seconds regardless of if you've taken its respective damage type recently. This recovery will persist for a few seconds even after you've taken damage.
