Sandbag Barricade
Wall, window and barricade,Common,Deployable,Blueprint
The Sandbag Barricade holds 150 health, and three hammer swings take it from broken back to full.
What it takes to destroy the Sandbag Barricade with one siege weapon alone, each paid in what its own recipe asks: metal and fuel for the ram, sulfur and the rest for a propane bomb.
Every count starts from full health, with the Timed Explosive Charge and the Satchel Charge stuck on the Sandbag Barricade and Explosive 5.56 Rifle Ammo fired from an Assault Rifle.
A Satchel Charge fails to go off 20% of the time and a Beancan Grenade 15%, so carry spares.
What the Sandbag Barricade is looted from
