  • Legion Hotfix (2016-09-13): Barrage range will now correctly match the range of the Hunter's other abilities.
Developers' Notes: During the recent updates to Barrage, we discovered it extended approximately 2 yards beyond the range of autoshot and other abilities. We're changing it to more closely match.
  • Legion Hotfix (2016-09-07): Barrage now fires in a tighter cone, and its visual has been improved to better show its area of effect.
Developers' Notes-- Barrage fulfills a fantasy of a wild spray of shots in a large area. Of course, that can be dangerous, and often Hunters accidentally pull additional enemies with Barrage, especially in Legion dungeons. We saw this as a failure on our part to convey what it actually does. This hotfix should allow Hunters to get a feel for the shape and size of it and build a reliable expectation of what will happen when they cast Barrage. No change was made to Barrage's damage. We hope that this helps Hunters and their groupmates to have a more pleasant dungeon experience.
  • Legion Patch 7.0.3 (2016-07-19): No longer available to Survival hunters.
  • Warlords of Draenor Hotfix (2015-07-13): Barrage should no longer incorrectly hit targets that are in stealth if the Hunter is unable to see them.
