according to ME wikia page,
"Barrier is unique among the four Mass Effect 2 "armor powers" (the other three being Tech Armor, Fortification, and Geth Shield Boost) in that it does not have an activation animation. This absence is actually an advantage, as it means that Shepard can activate Barrier while stunned/under fire - for example, while staggered by a pyro's flame stream. It also fits the mental flavor of a biotic ability."
first of all i am not too sure what they define as activation animation but GSB doesnt have one either.....
i mean your omni tool glows in gold while you activate it but its not like shepard is doing the motion like when activating tech armor (touching your left chest with your right hand or something...)
second, i tried forcing myself being staggered by the pyro attack......
that thing, Shepard can activate Barrier while stunned/under fire, doesnt work..... on barrier (or GSB. i tried both)
so..... what's happening?
barrier activation animation

I know what you mean. You cannot always activate Barrier while being staggered. Still, there should be a point during the pyro's attacks where you can bring it up. It activates a lot faster than, say, Tech Armor. With Tech Armor you will probably drop dead before it has a chance to take effect (if staggering from a pyro). I play on the xbox. That might have something to do with it.
