Didn’t they say “Instead he has a brand new ability bound to alternate fire” then immediately after that explains and shows off that orb thingy.
[pinches forehead in frustration] the… why did you rework him this way? The whole point was Bastion in his current form is tricky to tune.
They’re re-treading old ground of having high damage reduction when they did that in 2017 and it was considered a big mistake back then.
Unless the fire rate is buffed right back to where it was before then it’s a direct downgrade in every close range fight which are going to be easy to force on Bastion.
Well he doesn’t ![]()
He has bolts and physical weapons. He has armour not shields.
My main issue is it seems to be an “energy orb” just so that it can bounce and have a delayed detonation which is just… worse… than if it was a rocket or grenade that detonated on impact.
Those banked shots off walls are total dumb luck, you have nothing to aim at. You cannot reliably hit anything.
