Barik is a Front Line Champion in Paladins, added on November 17, 2015.
Barik is one of the Champions in Paladins.
Story
Like most of his kin, Barik is loud, obnoxious, and lacks subtlety. All traits that serve him well in his profession as a Ruins Raider. No shrine, temple, or crypt is safe if Barik is around. Using devices of his own invention, and with an eye to turn a profit, Barik plunders all, and has made a name for himself in Crosswind Hold.
Summary
While most Front Line champions have large health pools, Barik has a somewhat low health. However, this is compensated with his ability to deploy Barricades and Turrets to defend allies and/or objectives. Barik is also able to use his Rocket Boots for quick escapes, or to re-position himself with ease. His ultimate, Dome Shield, deploys a powerful Flamethower Turret that is surrounded by a very tough dome-shaped Barricade, which makes it an ideal area denial skill.
