Barrier Orb description
Barrier Orb is a Vision Blocker ability that Sage must equip before casting. Once equipped, her crosshair will be replaced with an indicator for placing a wall. Upon first equip the indicator will be oriented to be perpendicular to the direction Sage is facing. Sage can recast the ability to rotate this indicator 90°. Using Alternate Fire allows her to have full control over the exact angle the indicator is positioned in. Recasting the ability after using Alternate Fire will reset the indicator to a perpendicular or linear position. If Sage unequips Barrier Orb, the orientation of the indicator upon reequipping will be the same as it was when she unequipped the ability.
Upon activation, a wall containing multiple segments will rise up from the ground, blocking line of sight and preventing anything from passing through them. A segment will not be created if it would not be in contact with any horizontal terrain. The segments each have their own health amount, which will increase after being allowed to fortify a few seconds after forming. Enemies can destroy a segment by dealing enough damage to it to deplete its health using weapons or some damaging abilities.
Towards the end of the wall's duration the health of any remaining segments will each begin to decay for a percentage of their remaining health. Segments with less health than others will not expire before them, and all remaining segments will expire simultaneously.
