  1. remove selfheal
  2. tatical beacon.(replaces selfheal)
  • it can attach terrain
  • it has same cooldown ,operation time, effective range as hanzo’s sonic arrow, ofcourse same trajectory speed but no damage.
  • it only reveals enemies information( Magazine,hp,cooldown,ultimate gauge)
  • it won’t reveal silhouette like hanzo/widowmaker but you can use it for checking enemies location indirectly (when you throw beacon to positon, if someone’s there. Then it will reveal enemy’s information, it can gather “clocked” enemy’s information. You can use him blocking sombra.)
  • enemies information table position can change in the option. top left botton right.
  • due to balance problem. Specific data will revealed as gauge bar with NO NUMBER.
  • These data is revealed to ALL TEAMMATE
  1. sentry mode
    35% ironclad
    4 seconds operation time
    cooldown resets when times up.
    cooldown 10 second.

That would just make him WAY worse. Why are all these Bastion rework threads like crazy nerf suggestions? Lul.

How “reveal enemy ultimate , cooldown and indirect position scanning” can be worse thing? You can check enemies ultimate by using “one ability”.
4second * 450 =1800 (reinhardt’s shield =2000)

Nope.

Not only have you given Sentry Mode some form of restrictions, you brought back Iron-crap.

Lets remove that first.

No thanks, self heal loss is a deal breaker for me. Flank bastion will be gone as he is now completely reliant on his healers, and his spot in bunker will be his only spot

Not only did they remove his self heal, they upped the reliance he would have on his healers, due to iron-crap.

I’m SO Out.

1st. If you’re adding a new ability he has an open key, no need to remove anything.

2nd. How would all that information be displayed?

3rd. No need to change sentry like that.

No.

Bastion’s lack of mobility means he needs self-heal. He does not have the speed to be ferrying back and forth to health packs and back.

And do NOT say “well he’ll always have a healer in bunker comps”.

Removing self-heal is a MASSIVE nerf and cloning Hanzo’s sonic arrow cannot come close to compensating. And it’s not even a clone of Hanzo’s arrow, it’s a massive dump of worthless information.

Every single part of this is absolutely terrible.

This would destroy Bastion. He would go from 0.5% pickrate to 0.01% pickrate.

35% ironclad is so unfathomably bad you have no idea, I don’t think you understand how stupidly good 35% damage reduction is. It means healing is effectively +54% better at negating damage. He’s worthless without a healer yet at annoyingly infrequent points too good.

Amazingly bad balance.

The thing is you can’t dare suggest to these people they might have an ulterior motive or they’ll play the offence card.

Apparently it’s all just a massive coincidence that this would make it way easier for anyone to fight Bastion.
