Exploding Barrels
Exploding Barrels are explosive objects found on Missions. They are considered Environmental Hazards which can be carried and tossed around,
Effect
Will explode when damaged with any weapon with a demolition force of 5 or higher. Many of the barrels leave the surrounding ground area immolated for approximately 10-seconds.
Types Of Barrels
Super Earth Barrels.
Generates on all missions. Most often found at specific Minor Places of Interest and usually plentifully around extraction areas. Often also placed right next to a large amount of mission objective terminals most commonly during "Launch ICBM" and "Enable E-710 Extraction"-missions.

These Batteries fuel the Automaton war machine.

Illuminate Barrels

- Any surviving Helldiver from the explosion damage will be left immolated / suffers from fire burning status effect.
