Sure, it is a "shield" that protect an enemy from all sorts of effects, including damage, slow, knockback etc. Then, once the attack is blocked, the barrier breaks if the damage was more than the barrier's hp or it also takes 0 damage. If the enemy barrier has 65000hp, like that of Ribbo, it means that the enemy is invulnerable and cannot be beaten in any way, as the barrier would absorb all the damage and stay at 65000hp, unless someone attacks and, in a single strike, deals more than 65000 damage; in that case the unit still takes 0 damage, but the shield breaks and never reforms, meaning that Ribbo becomes a random alien without barrier. Barrier breakers have a chance to bypass barriers, kinda like crit. hitters for metals, but barrier breakers both destroy the barrier and bypass it. Take Catman, Seafarer and Fencer against Ribbo; Catman needs 2 hits, fencer needs one, seafarer will never freeze nor affect Ribbo in any way.
