Salvo Barrage

So uhhh, was this combo just straight-up disabled? I'm still firing bursts after getting barrage. If so, why? Is there a point to just killing off a build entirely? That seems uncalled for.

Salvo was changed to never fire anything except from its stockpile, for the sake of consistency, probably. This means the continual missiles you got from the action of Barrage in past versions was removed. That's accounted for in the patch notes:

Originally posted by "Patch notes":

* Salvo firing triggers projectile release directly, instead of firing a single shot and then "repeating" for the stockpile
* Salvo accumulation time acts as the de facto fire delay

Barrage still makes a difference with Salvo in that it influences how many missiles are added to the stockpile each time it ticks due to its effect on projectile count, and also adds the base damage and random stat properties.

Rip constant micro missile spamming courser build.

Well damn, I just thought I was doing something wrong. That's less than satisfying, gotta say. Barrage missile battery was one of my favorite builds, even if it wasn't super viable.

I guess that's the idea - you can fail your build without warning.
