Pocket with 290 bullet shield and 550 spirit shield

Barriers are a pool of additional health that takes damage before Health is reduced. Barriers block all incoming damage, whether that be Spirit Damage, Weapon Damage or Melee Damage. Damage Resistances do apply to shields.

Notes

Troopers, Guardians, Walkers, the Patron, and Denizens ignore barriers and deal damage directly to health.
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.

-'''Damage Shields''' are pools of additional health that take damage before [[Health]] is reduced. There are two types of shields: [[Bullet Damage|Bullet]] Shields and [[Spirit Damage|Spirit]] Shields, each of which blocks only the respective damage types. Melee Damage is also blocked by bullet shields. [[Damage Resistance]]s do not apply to shields. Once damaged or fully depleted, they will fully recover after some time.

-== Recovery ==
-If not fully depleted, a shield will begin recovery if it has not been damaged in the past 30 seconds. This countdown will be interrupted by taking damage.
-If fully depleted, a shield will begin recovery after 50 seconds regardless of whether the player has taken the respective damage type recently. This recovery will persist for a few seconds even after the player has taken damage.
+== Sources of Barriers ==
-Shields recover at a rate of 20% full shield health per second. This is the same regardless of whether a shield is fully depleted or not.
