A starting magician can hope to make 6 successes around 1/4 times. Let's assume he does really well in general. That means that the barrier has 6 armor and 6 barrier rating. If a street sam with 10 shooting dice (HAH!) shoots it with an Ares Predator, he attacks a barrier that has 4 armor and 6 barrier rating. If he gets three successes on average and the barrier does, too, then he shoots the barrier with 8P, enough to puncture the barrier on an average hit. And that's if the mage rolls really well. The only way for this spell to be useful is if the mage burns edge.
