It's still there, it just isn't sexy anymore Yeah, I could not really see it. I tried my Sentinel in the tutorial mission along with other kits, and I can't say I am crazy about it. I had more fun visually with the Infiltrator with Scorpion and Sticky grenades. Barricade looks nice, but why orange & seeing how everyone runs around like their anthill is on fire, its only purpose is to defend hacks. It does remind me the gunslinger in SWTOR a little. Anyways, dunno... It's orange because tech powers are orange, and barricade wants to be tech when it grows up. At age 21 it is!

Turian Soldier and Krogan Mercenary have Fortify which can still do the splodey if you spec for it. It's also 'always on' visually, but it's kind of ugly imo. What platform you play on? Yeah, I tried my Krogans Merc with Fortify as well, and that faint glow kindda lacked the wow factor. I am on Origin/PC. On the upside, I like the Infiltrator more so I might actually change plans and level that after Soldier.

If you like to camp, Barricade is great. If you flow around the map murdering stuff, it's really only good for trolling teammates by trapping them in a room with a fiend. Not really. You pop it, stun/ detonate/ kill a group of enemies and move along. You don't need to stay in one place. Anyway, I explained on another topic why I think Barricade is better than Backslash, I'm not going to go through those arguments again. I'll just leave these gifs here...

Being a contrarian I took all 6 ranks of Barricade on the Angara Exemplar instead of his fitness. And it is insane how many tech combos you can get with him: Barricade, Overload, Energy Drain (at rank 5), and his passive (when damaged) all prime people. Overload and Energy Drain also detonate. I try to prime mostly with Barricade + passives so I have both detonators available. And with his ultra-fast cooldowns you can pretty much always be detonating.
Anyway on the topic of Tech Armor, it would be cool if they made it a purge-able ability like Fortify, but I don't think they will because that would give some characters 4 activated abilities which is presumably a no-no.

I was thinking about doing the same just yesterday. I've only got 5 ranks in Overload and Energy Drain, and don't feel like I need more. I can also do without Bioelectric Ward. I only need 3 ranks in Fitness as is, but I need at least one more character card to max Barricade.

HOPEFULLY they fix the Respect Card bug in 1.09 so you can safely try different combinations on UR characters.

You can have my movement speed bonus when you pry it from my cold, dead, purple, conductive fingers.
