Notes

  • Should always be used to triple the number of strikes from Straight Shot.png  Straight Shot or Refulgent Arrow.png  Refulgent Arrow as they are the highest-potency single-target weaponskills that Bard has. Because this grants Straight Shot Ready, these weaponskills can be used immediately after Barrage regardless of whether the proc was ready. If a proc was ready, it will overwrite and waste the proc, however.
  • In an AoE situation, Barrage empowers Shadowbite.png  Shadowbite but will not grant Shadowbite Ready, which is only given from Quick Nock.png  Quick Nock or Ladonsbite.png  Ladonsbite.
