==Notes==
*Because Barrage grants Straight Shot Ready, if a proc was ready beforehand it will be overwriten.
*In an AoE situation, Barrage empowers {{action icon|Shadowbite}} against all targets. However, it will ''not'' grant Shadowbite Ready, which is only given from {{action icon|Quick Nock}} or its upgrade {{action icon|Ladonsbite}}.
*Outside of AOE, of the "single-target weaponskills" that Bard has, the highest-potency are {{action icon|Straight Shot}} or its upgrade {{action icon|Refulgent Arrow}}. To maximise damage in single-target situations, the Barrage effect should be used on those actions. Because this ability always grants Straight Shot Ready, likewise these weaponskills can always be used immediately after using Barrage.
