I think it's also worth noting about the Barrier Reef buff is that you only now need Carapace at level 3 instead of 5 to get an extra second off of Barrier Reef if the shield gets destroyed. Which can allow you to invest those two loadout points to something else if you want.

Wait so you run Barrier Reef at lvl 5 and Carapace at lvl 3 to get the full second?

@@beelhybees2109 Correct. Carapace 3 lets you get just enough shield health to squeeze one more proc of Barrier Reef if the enemy ends up breaking the shield. (4600 ÷ 900 = 5.11) Compared to (4000 ÷ 900 = 4.44) if you're not running the Carapace card at all.

The fact that the "Off Shield" build exists just goes to show how cool Paladins' loadout system is. The game is absolutely mishandled by the parent company and 90% of balance changes are "great idea, awful execution" incarnate but the core of this game is just so perfect. I wish that more champions actually have loadout variety, half of them either have exactly two builds or exactly two good cards and the rest are useless filler.

Thankfully it seems they're focusing more on diversifying existing heroes than just adding more lately. Makoa had the same problem for years, but very recently he is getting more options for how you build him. In that way, it *feels* like we got a new hero in what you can do with Makoa now that you couldn't really do before. If they keep doing that one at a time for every hero, there will be an insane amount of variety in gameplay

What's also worth mentionning about half shell gameplay is that full reset is almost a thing. With maxed carapace and barrier reef, chronos 3 and guardian 3 you almost get a full shield reset if the ennemies destroy it 14*0.7 - (4000+1000)*1.45/900 = 1.74 s of cooldown left

Makoa is my secondary main, and I gotta say my favourite card is the one that reduces shell spin cooldown when hitting someone with it, since Makoa is all about the burst and then either getting out again or snowballing, in both of which cases you want a shell spin up. You can also do the spinfinity meme build with the heal on spin and max range cards, I recommend strongarm instead of self heal though, throw on the classic fillers (ammo on hook and some other card)

Andrew please tell me I’m not insane, I always out a ton of work into builds, and I have all my shell reset builds with level 4 carapace and maxed barrier reef. This means 4800 shield health, and I am almost 100% confident that this was an optimal build. I seem to remember 1k was the damage value needed on barrier reef a long time ago, and it was changed to 800. So this 900 seems like a nerf no? I’m going to look through patch notes just in case I’m wrong.
@DerfyRed

Ok I’m partially not insane. It did used to be 800 damage, but that was nerfed to 1k in the Last Remains patch. I guess I missed that in the patch and haven’t changed my build since then. The reason I thought 1k was the original value is because it actually used to be 500, meaning that maxing both cards was optimal like with 1k as the threshold, it was just a lot more effective.

I’m confused he keeps talking about playing half shell OR off tank. I thought the play was always to play half shell even if you are off tank? Except off tank doesn’t focus on shield cards as much

all makoa's talents are great and it depends on a enemy comp if they have high dmg probably half shell or 3rd talent and if they have high mobility flank or good healers you should go pluck
