Each barrel comes with 50 Pyroclastic Bombs, which have a life of 3600 seconds. Double click the barrel to receive a Bomb. Double click the bomb and select the barrier. (Took 100 bombs to break the first barrier, you need to break through 2 barriers on the bridge). Random spawn will pop up and attack near the barrier while using the bombs.
