Barley
Best build

Barley’s best build is by far the Medical Use Star Power with the Sticky Syrup Mixer Gadget. With the Medical Use Star Power, Barley can heal up very easily and it allows him to keep shooting at enemies. In terms of Gadget, the Sticky Syrup Mixer gives him a chance to escape from any melee strike and it can be very helpful. The Shield Gear give Barley more survivability against enemies that manage to touch him. Finally, The Gadget Cooldown is a good Gear choice to use more often Herbal Tonic or Sticky Syrup Mixer Gadget.

Other build

The other Star Power, Extra Noxious, is really not that strong compared to the other one because it only gives Barley +13% more DPS. The Herbal tonic Gadget is a decent Gadget and can be used to support your teammates. It can be useful in hot zone because it allows your teammates to automatically heal up when standing on the potion.
