Barriers are semi-transparent, semi-permeable structures that block incoming damage and most projectiles. Barriers can also block line of sight for certain abilities. They do not prevent heroes from crossing, nor block any melee attacks. Some attacks can pierce barriers. Barriers only affect the opposing team.
Barriers have shields for their HP, and are damaged by EMP. Unlike the shields on heroes, barriers' shields only regenerate while the barrier is inactivate, and with a 2 second delay instead of 3. Since most barriers are always active once deployed, the only barriers that can regenerate are the ones that can be recalled back.

Abilities whose lines of sight are blocked by barriers
Projectiles that bounce off barriers
Abilities that travel through barriers
- Hero movement abilities, such as Blink
- Exception: Shield Bash cannot travel through barriers
- B.O.B.: B.O.B. can charge through barriers
- Immortality Field: The generator can travel through barriers
- RIP-Tire: The tire can travel through barriers, but barriers block the explosion
- Biotic Orb: The orb can travel through barriers, but barriers block line of sight for the damage/healing
- Halt!: The orb can travel through barriers, but barriers block line of sight for the pull
- Protective Barrier: The projectile launched to deploy the barrier can travel through barriers
- Translocator: The translocator can travel through barriers
- Sentry Turret: The turrets can travel through barriers, but barriers block the beams they emit
Attacks and abilities that pierce barriers
- B.O.B. (charge)
Trivia
- Unlike most barriers, Zarya's barriers are pink and smooth on the surface.
- Originally, they were blue with hexagonal patterns like all the other barriers.[1]
- Bastion used to generate a curved barrier in front of him while in Sentry mode.
- Barriers are often informally called "shields."
