I Think Bastion Should Be Reworked And Not Buffed

Actually I do know quite a bit about Bastion.

And what do I suggest?

Ah yes, there it is.

Just to get this ball rolling again…

Changes that have been suggested:

Headshots enabled in Sentry Mode.

Spread tightened in Sentry Mode.

Ammo lowered to 150 ( Or even as low as 100 ) In Sentry Mode.

A personal shield is added to Sentry Mode, facing wherever the Bastion is looking, at a health of 300-500 or in that range. And only regenerates while out of Sentry Mode.

Ironclad removed or completely reworked.

And on top of that, allow me to add in one of the more important changes:

Configuration: Tank is now another configuration, with lower damage rocket/shells, and is always accessible in the same fashion as Configuration: Sentry.

New Ultimate : “Overclocked” Now strengthens Bastion in all configurations , causing Bastion to glow a hot red in similar fashion to Torbjorn’s ability ( Or Torbjorn’s original ultimate ) Dealing higher damage and having either lowered or zero reload time in any configuration for the duration of the ultimate.

This gives Bastion not only the “Mobility” People seem desperate to ask for, but utility, and versatility in combat, as a machine that can adapt to the situation at hand.
