You may have better luck with Forgefire if you run a symbiotic sustain turret loadout. That's what I've seen success with and enjoy a lot. 500hp/s for the turret and 75-100hp/s for yourself when you're near them, combined with the base hp boost for turrets. With Forgefire you can pretty much lay down a small field of turrets that are much harder to dispatch if you are actively body blocking and using your shield effectively. Awesome videos as always, thanks for the content!
The ult turret needs to be much harder to dispatch. That would fix it. They could make it even better by making them slowly move towards targets within a certain range.
I like Barik, but he feels hard to play with when considering other Frontlines who use dr, rejuv and have higher health pools. He should get a sizeable-but-balanced rework to his self-sustain, to make up for the self-sustain he lost during Sands of Myth.
He's the worst due to his lower health pool and mediocre self-sustain methods, but if you manage to work with your team to focus enemies that aren't enemy Frontlines then you can do well with him.
@@avi-ql1sh Sure until enemies realize they can just pressure you off a point by moving forward since you're still reliant on your Support's healing via rejuv to make use of your Barricade
@@rexpowercolt8216 I'm fine with illuminate being in base kit. It's just that skye does no actual damage. Either land all 25 shots or you die. Might just make some videos of me playing skye, in all honesty.
@@godlyvex5543 your teammates could be to blame, or you're rushing in without your dps and healer to back you up. If you have the right build and play it right, the turrets actually have some good self sustain for both themselves and Barik. I often get Veteran with him too, as he's one of the squishiest tanks when it comes to pure HP
@@joonyah8904 I feel like I'm pretty good with game flow, I often have the least deaths, even as tank. I usually play khan, inara, or term. Still, I feel so vulnerable and easy to kill as barik, and I can never get any kills.
I used to watch you back in 2019/20, just came back to paladins and I’m happy to see you still play the game 🙌
I am main Barik, he's so underrated. Good thing is that not a lot of people know of his uses as an hybrid tank.
Barik is all around a good champ

To those who care, hello and have a good day! 👋❤️

Much love from India Mr. Fangs!

Vik, Skye, Betty, Dredge, Jenos ,Io, Corvus, Koga, Torvald same shit

barik strongest point tank if enemy has no aoe spammer like willow,dredge,or betty
Barik is the best point tank. design, sustain, and point pressure he excels the best in those categories better than all the other point tanks.
Barik is probably the weakest point tanks but if you are good he works well
Hendefo is not the weakest bruh... He is just mid and hes my main tank for 3 years now 😂
@@aldenpezo6661
He is really the weakest point tank, he is better than some off tanks

@@laxattack4620just use the card that reduces all your cooldown by 25% when your turret is destroyed and have infinite barricades youll never die

Playing as skye, you don't feel like your doing anything anymore.
Sha lin is same invis but stronger

Forgefire is so bad imo. That turret dies in a second from basically any champ without demolisher. The cards do not change that.
Forge Fire needs to keep your turrets up when you die.
best game ive ever done was 86 and 6 with barik.
I usually run tinkerin with a turret self sustain build, and i do just fine with it. No idea why he doesnt see more play
every time I play as him I feel helpless, the whole enemy team just shreds me even with my shield which just disappears

@@godlyvex5543 idk what else to tell ya there bud. I'm just speaking from what i know and my experience playing Barik
I just now realized that you have 5x as much subs as AndrewChicken. For whatever reason I thought it was the opposite 🤷♂️
He been at it much longer I think also Andrew chicken for us ultra nerds bc he breaks things down more in depth this is to the point
*PETITION FOR NEW BARIK SKIN IN 2024 PLEASE*
Never been above B tier? You obviously didn’t play him for those weeks when he got buffed to 4k base health
you need a better forge fire build
