Pocket with 600 HP barrier

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 Resistances applied.

Notes

• Damage to barriers does get 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 Rem's Tag Along.
