The Best Modules And Rig For Barrage In Exoprimal
Barrage is a fairly agile and durable Exosuit, however, its low fire rate can cause some issues when faced with a large number of dinosaurs. To counteract this,the Blade Rigis the best attachmentto use for this Exosuit, as it can temporarily incapacitate dinosaurs that are close by and buy Barrage enough time to fire another devastating grenade to wipe them out. As an alternative to combat the slow fire rate,the Catapult Rigis also a good option as it enables Barrage to get free of dinosaur swarms and blow them up from a distance.

Barrage’s abilities are among the bestinExoprimal, so naturally using modules specifically tailored to improve these skills are favorable for creating the most effective version of the Exosuit. In slot one,the Blast Enhancer Module improves the blast radius and magazine size of Barrage’s primary weapon, which can be really beneficial in saving time and cutting down the amount of reloading required. For slot two, usingthe Lingering Threat Module will improve Barrage’s best alternative abilityby increasing the flame duration and decreasing the cooldown time of its Triple Threat ability. Alternatively, the Boost Grenade increases the attack power of the Stun Grenade, however, the Lingering Threat edges it out in effectiveness due to the significant damage the Triple Threat can do. In the third slot, players can elect for the Flare Dodge, which increases explosive damage andthe chance of burning dinosaurs, however,the Reload Dodge is invaluable as a tool to increase Barrage’s efficiency. With this module equipped, the Exosuit will automatically reload its primary weapon, which can save a lot of time and lower the chances of Barrage suffering damage.
Aside from the Exosuit-specific modules, Barrage isbest suited for the Reload Efficiencyto help cut down on how long it takes for it to restock on ammunition. Given the potency of the Burning Heart ability,players should also consider the Hi-Xol Compression Moduleto enable Barrage to use its Overdrive ability more frequently.
Tips For Playing Barrage In Exoprimal
Barrage is a high-damage Exosuit that is relatively durable, but it does not compare in healthwhen looking at Tank Exosuits. Players should make use of its mobility and always be on the move when in a war game, as the explosive nature of its weapons does leave some room for error in the accuracy department.Barrage is most effectively used by combining all of its abilities in a series of flowing attacking sequences. The majority of its abilities have fairly low cooldown times, so using the Tripe Threat and Stun Grenades abilities in conjunction with its primary grenade launcher will make it nearly impossible for the dinosaur swarms to gain the upper hand in battle.
As an Assault class Exosuit,Barrage is best used in active combat at mid-range. It does not have any close-quarters combat abilities, so distance is advised, however, given it is immune to its own explosive arsenal, players need not concern themselves with any consequences for blowing up any dinos in their Exosuit’s face.Barrage’s Overdrive abilitydelivers damage like no one else does inExoprimal, but players should use this with caution as it comes at a cost of 60% of the Exosuit’s health, leaving it temporarily vulnerable to being attacked and destroyed.
Barrage is perhaps the most fun Exosuit to play with inExoprimal. Whether players have been fighting dinosaurs for a while or just starting out, the satisfaction of sending swarms of Raptors into the air in an explosion just doesn’t wear off.
