![]() It walks around on two legs and utilizes a submachine gun. Configuration: ReconĬonfiguration: Recon is Bastion’s base form. Abilities and Some TipsĪlright, with some backstory out of the way, time to take a look at its abilities. So, with his mind made up, he fights off the authorities himself (he didn’t kill them he just restrained them), pursues Bastion, befriends it, and gets to work upgrading it to what we see in Overwatch. Torbjörn observes, finding it curious that this particular Bastion unit is running away from conflict instead of fighting, and concludes that something is different about this one. Naturally, things are blown out of proportion because of what the Bastion unit represents post-Omnic Crisis, and the local authorities attempt to hunt him down. To see how that turned out, I think watching this incredible animated short from 2016, “The Last Bastion” will serve you better than my explaining it:Īfter the events of the animated short “The Last Bastion,” Bastion finds itself in Sweden, where it accidentally scared a bunch of kids. Upon waking up, it remembered its programming to attack Stuttgart (a city in Germany) and began its trek over there. Waking upīastion was forgotten for a decade in Germany after the war but woke up thanks to a friendly little bird named Ganymede. Once the war was over, all the Bastion units that weren’t destroyed were deactivated and taken apart to avoid history repeating itself. ![]() ![]() A Bastion unit was a mass-produced piece of machinery by humanity, but they were eventually programmed against their creators during the Omnic Crisis. Let’s get something clear: initially, Bastion was not unique whatsoever. Except in the actual game, of course, because there he’s a violent murderer (but then again, so is everyone when it comes to gameplay). But, it is now somehow changed, likely because of its newfound connection to nature.Īs such, Bastion is a kind-hearted machine (do machines have a heart? A post-human discussion for another time), that goes against its original programming and seeks peace instead of conflict. It also happens to be one of the most hated heroes in the game, so play it at your own risk! Lore Image from Overwatch Fandomīastion was formerly known as “SST Laboratories Siege Automaton E54.” Under this “name,” it was a soldier of the rebelling omnics during the Omnic Crisis. That, coupled with its ability to self-repair makes it one of the tankier non-tank heroes. This makes sense because it is, quite literally, a tank (at least when it’s using its ultimate). However, if properly protected, Bastion is a menace.īastion sits at 300 health, which is the largest health pool of all the damage heroes in Overwatch. ![]() Without a shield tank defending it, Bastion is particularly vulnerable due to its Sentry form forcing it to be stationary.
