Rate Barricade

I mostly used it in battles where there was very little cover. Useful and definitely saved my life a couple of times but those coverless battles were few and far in between. So I would rate it as Ok. Useful when it needs to be but sadly underused in my campaign.

Nope, even on my soldier Ryder I'd rather pick any of the other powers.

I've used it a tad, and I rate it...

It serves a purpose but with all the possible power combinations available it isn't my first choice when assigning powers. Now, as a beginning of the game power it came in handy.

i use it with the bw when I'm in the open to soften the baddies up.

They didn't intend for this game to be a cover shooter imo.

I rated it "Poor". Not necessarily because I think it sucks, but it's (in my opinion) rather underwhelming. Duration is too short for my taste, and with only 3 active powers available at any given time I frankly have better uses for those slots. If I need to avoid getting shot I much prefer to cloak, change position and ambush someone with a massive damage bonus.

I find it less useful in SP than MP. In MP it's really amazing. In SP, often I can find enough cover or I use backlash rather than park somewhere with barricade. For it to be most useful, you have to have it available IIRC because I think it gets the same cooldown on profile switch and the best time to use it is often not planned or predicted. Otherwise it's a wasted skill slot until you need it which at that point in my case, I would have to switch. Also, the places I might need it most are during encounters out on planets which is where getting power cells is a pain due to encounter locations not always having ammo. I run out of ammo during encounters often because I drive around and don't use the forward stations unless I need to get somewhere specific. If there was a way we could have that specific skill set to always be instantly available, then it would be great. 

I've only used it in MP on the human sentinel but I think it makes a good 1 point wonder. Just a really handy panic button.

The one downside is that you can't use it if an object is blocking part of its projected location. This seems a bit silly to me; the barricade should just be able to sit hard against the object.
