Dierdre's Consecrate can boost Barrage's damage output.

I tested her Consecrate ability on Steam.

I built one Crossbow Fort and upgraded it with tier 3 Barrage.
To an unarmored Gorillon, it dealt 31-40 (avg. 35) damage per bolt without Consecrate, and 39-50 (avg. 45) damage per bolt with tier 3 Consecrate.
To a medium-armored Saurian Myrmidon, it dealt 12-16 (avg. 13.5) damage per bolt without Consecrate, and 15-20 (avg. 17) damage per bolt With tier 3 Consecrate.

At least on my tests, the other towers' abilities remained unchanged regardless of Consecrate. Namely, Wasp Missiles, Totem of Weakness, Critical Mass, and Furnace Blast.

How quaint. Perhaps the game counts Barrage as an unlockable part of the tower’s basic attack rather than a special ability.

Interesting. If Ninja is right, that would be consistent with the Falconer ability also applying to Barrage, which I think it does. At least I've never noticed the Crossbow switching to a nearer enemy for Barrage.
