Bastion is being forgotten

For those seeking more detail about Bastion, then check out this megathread that discusses things like his first-shot bug: Where did he go? Where is he now? F-tier, straight after his rework. Funny enough, he’s been there for over a year now, which he only got out of for a week when he became OP. Prior he was also F-tier, but he was at least usable back then. Wasn’t his rework suppose to fix him and make him better? I thought that too, but the problems that the rework fixed were either band…

Bastion's main problem and how to fix it!

TL/DR: Bastion's main problem is being taken out of the fight by a dive. This can sometimes be mitigated with the help of his teammates through different defensive abilities. To help make him less drastically reliant on his team and more viable not only against dive comps, he should get one of three tools that would give him more options for counterplay against the other heroes: Offense, Defense, or Mobility.

Some Bastion rework ideas

I wanted to put these ideas in their own thread so that it’s easier to find and view. Here are some Bastion tweak and rework ideas that the community has come up with. Note, these are my variations of these ideas, but the general idea is usually the same from version to version.

TEAMWORK QUALITY OF LIFE “BUFF”

Sentry Gun Laser Sight

Just as Lucio kept his song-circles to help teammates know where to stand to enjoy his speed boosts or healing, Bastion’s Sentry Gun should have a laser pointer to inform his teammates (but not his enemies) where his gun is aimed so that they know where they can expect his fire-support. The safest place for Bastion to be is behind his allies and as high off the ground as possible, so the frontline can easily fail to realize where their Bast…

Bastion ISN’T being forgotten, he’s being ignored

On behalf of Pharah, who wrote this post but is not trust level 3 and cannot post links, but this issue has dragged out for over a year and a 1/3rd, and it means a lot to a small playerbase that still tries to play Bastion, in his current, unfortunate form. Yes, I, Pharah, wrote this post however this will be my last one. I have cried out loudly and if this thread doesn’t get through, then it proves my title correct: Bastion is being ignored. Too many great people have supported Bastion and hav…
