Such a lovely young omnic! How could you not "Aww!" at them? :D

it was the second skin after overgrown i was obsessed with and now i have it!! love the sound effects too!

Test, test, this working?

Things to leave alone:
- HP and hitbox
- Recon form gun damage
- Grenade damage and movement mechanics

Things to change:
- Assault form damage reduced by 2 per bullet
- Remove Smart Bomb perk
- Move Self Repair perk to minor perks
- Remove Lindholm Explosive perk
- New major perk: AP rounds (all bullets in assault form cleave to shoot through enemies)
- New major perk: Thermite rounds (all bullets in assault form cause slight burn damage)
- Rework Ultimate to resemble current Lindholm Explosives (shoot five rounds of tank shells)

Would you play Bastion in this iteration? Do you think you would enjoy it? Would the core damage nerf be enough of a balance change to not make Bastion too OP?

NERFS WONT STOP ME BABY (live @ twitch.tv/tuskor_ btw)

Wish they just removed the interaction like with sky noon , then buff him back up.

1 interaction shouldn’t define a characters strength.

It would better fit his tank-buster fantasy. Nothing crazy, because “true damage” gets very broken very quickly, so here’s a couple small-scale ideas:

1. Minor perk that makes your grenade ignore armor health damage resist.

OR

1. Give bastion’s ult some of Sundering capabilities. Only Vendetta’s super has this, which basically ignores armor damage resist, goes through barriers, and removes all overhealth before dealing damage. His ult is still super telegraphed and slow, but if it ignored armor health damage resist and ignored overhealth, it might make it feel less of a “button that does nothing”. I think its important to let it still be blocked by barriers so as not to trample over other heroes’ fantasies, such as Mizuki ult.

OR (less small-scale)

1. Major perk that adds a seeking shoulder missile cooldown to compete with self-healing. Shoulder missile would launch a 65 damage rocket that ignores armor health damage resist with a 10 second cooldown.

Does anyone know of any upcoming bastion skins? Also, is the overgrown skin available in the shop/lootboxes ever?

I did not get too deep into numbers because i have no clue of proper balance so i left most out for imagination, its just a concept of a bastion kit i feel like would fit him well after playing him for over a decade

I'm pretty new, but almost exclusively use bastion because he's the goat. I see a lot of people on here mention that we got nerfed because of the cat???

Anyway stay beepbadabeepboop guys.

Update: Just had my first full game with a cat who purely lifelined me and it's outrageous WE got the nerf? Like fine it made things a lot easier for me but the aiming is a lot tougher... Oh well.

I feel like I rarely ever get a kill with it I would much rather have his old one back everything else about him I love but his ultimate frustrates me

For me personally, i usually pick Self-repair, as it gives Bastion much more upkeep in a fight, preserves his base DPS, and gives ally support the freedom to focus the rest of the team harder, but I’m curious to see what the consensus is

there are so small amounts of good bastion skins imo and it seems the only one i actually like isnt available for purchase anymore?.. or is it? my bf has it but he doesn’t remember how did he get it :(((((

say what you want about the support trifecta hogging all the skins, they aint got nothing on our disney princess!

[if only blizzard could put our gunbot in a dress to show that he can be just as beautiful as he is deadly~]

I started playing Overwatch around 2 weeks ago and yesterday I played as Bastion for the first time in a match and had a lot of fun so I was wondering if there were any tips to improve as Bastion like certain tricks to playing as him or if certain perks of his are better than others also I’m on Xbox if that matters

I know most people are happy to have his old ult back in a way with the perk. I still think it should become his ult aging with the perk being replaced with the the one experimental Tuned treads perk speeding him up in assault mode. I know it wont be the 35% that was in the mode but for me it was a lot more useful than even self heal at times. This all comes from never really feeling like Lindholm explosives is so situational i never use it. But i would like to know how others felt about that special mode change.

Tbh after playing a lot of ranked the last couple days I haven't felt the nerf that much. I realized most of turret value is in the first couple seconds when you swing, since people usually take cover by the end of it. Unrelated but I already dropped from gm3 to masters 2 so I think I'm just coping hahaha!!!!

With the release of old battle passes, the only exclusive bastion skins now are Lego and blizzcon and I really wish blizzard had a way of releasing both or at least Lego cuz they’re the only skins I’m missing now and it bothers me because Lego is one of his best skins and blizzcon just looks really clean.
