Paladins Champions Gameplay Tutorial and How to Play Them

3. Front Line Champion: Barik

Barik is a guy you’ll like for a long time. This dwarf is a true hero. Let’s start explaining his right playstyle. Securing the capture point, just like every other Front Line, is your main objective. You need to hop on the capture point and deploy your turret instantly. After that, pop up your shield, so your tower will be beautiful for a more extended period. After you get your objective the payload spawn, you might want to jump on the payload and deploy turrets on it. This way, they are going to move with it, and they are not going to get lost behind. That’s all you need to know about the turrets.

Shielding

His shield is called Barricade (deploys a barricade that provides cover and has 5000 hp and lasts for 4 seconds, or until it’s destroyed). This should be activated at the right time just as any front line champion shielding ability. The only advantage with Barik is that you can deploy the shield and still move around. Well, that is a lot of benefits if you ask me because after you use it and someone tries to go through the shield and shoot you down, you can go on the other side of the shield and troll the players while the protection is active. It is fun. After the shield is gone, you might want to activate Rocket Boots and get the hell out of there because you are squishy. You are not Fernando or Makoa :).

Ultimate

Your Dome Shield (Deploy a 20k health shield for 8 seconds with a Flamethrower inside that deals 400 damage per second) is excellent for fights on the capture point. By activating you’re ultimate, you can either take the first objective and also win the second objective. Fun! You will love this champion for sure!

Barik, the little person with the beard, should be your second hand that always comes in a positive way to any other co-op Front Line champion. 🙂
