Cryptic Barricade
EliteCrypticsDescription
An Elite-tier defensive Cryptic that carries an unbreakable frontal shield, blocking all regular gunfire from the front.
Abilities
Unbreakable Shield
Carries a frontal shield that completely blocks normal gunfire.
Shield Bash
Uses its shield as a melee weapon, leaving itself exposed after the attack.
Strategy
The shield, while unbreakable, only stops normal gunfire; Spells and AOE attacks, like the Dual Revolvers' explosive reload, completely bypass it. The shield covers only the front of the Barricade's body, leaving the back and the sides of it exposed to any oncoming fire. The shield covers most of the Barricade's body, with the single exception of its face; if you can't hit it on the sides, target this weakspot instead. The Barricade uses its shield to attack you, but leaves itself wide open to any attacks for a short time after it's done.
