    How does Barrage Work?

    I'm dumb, so someone smarter than me explain how barrage works... What I believe, and have heard is this:

    The amount of times Barrage can hit increases at certain levels capping at 5? (AF1+1 adds one more possible hit, 6 cap?)

    Barrage will keep landing hits until one misses, or until you've reached max hits.

    Can hits within barrage critical? Can each hit of barrage have a relic proc? Is each hit of barrage determined the same way a regular ranged hit is(in terms of accuracy and damage)[ie; are there any special modifiers]?

    Lv 30 : allow to fire up to 4 projectiles
    Lv 50 : allow to fire up to 5 projectiles
    Lv 75 : allow to fire up to 6 projectiles

    H. Bracers+1 : up to 6 projectiles +1 = up to 7 projectiles
    how it works :
    imagine firing a set of projectiles. in 75, say a set of 6 projectiles
    if you miss, you stop firing, if you hit, you can continue eating up the projectiles left. That way, scoring a full-hit n-projectiles barrage is harder than scoring a full-hit n-hit WS

    Can hits within barrage critical?
    At least before last year patch it can, I don't quite remember what's happening after the patch or recent patch re-fix.
    Can each hit of barrage have a relic proc?
    triple damage can proc in barrage

    Is each hit of barrage determined the same way a regular ranged hit is(in terms of accuracy and damage)[ie; are there any special modifiers]?
    It's determined the same way as original ranged attack. AFAIK or notice

    Actually, it shoots up to 6 arrows at 75, 7 with AF+1 hands. At least I think so, I'm not really too sure.

    But when you miss one arrow, it won't shoot the rest of them. So if you miss the first arrow, the rest won't fire. If you miss the 3rd arrow, the 4th+ won't fire.
