Overwatch 2 is filled with various DPS, Tank, and Support units, each having its own playstyle and abilities. You can take a risk and fire all three missiles in one place, potentially taking out a hero or spreading out the three strikes, dealing a decent amount of damage to all heroes of the enemy team. Additionally, you also have the option to choose where each missile will land. In contrast to the ultimate of most characters, where using it when you have the maximum number of enemies in your range is the most effective use, Bastion’s ultimate requires the opposite approach.Ĭonfiguration: Artillery should only be used when you are in a safe haven and are as far away from the threat as possible, but not too far. Configuration: Artillery Typeįor the Ultimate, Bastion goes into Artillery configuration and fires 3 powerful artillery shells from a huge distance. However, at a medium range, the extra boost and health can give you an edge in a team vs team situation. The effect of this ability isn’t noticeable when you are fighting at long range since movement and health aren’t really a big concern there. Role: DamageĮliminating enemies will grant Bastion a burst of speed and health. In other words, the transformations shouldn’t be used as means to gain protection but as a means to push back. Ironclad just gives you enough protection to remain on the battlefield and push with your team, as well as use your abilities if you get caught off guard. This doesn’t mean you should transform whenever you are in a pinch because the damage you take won’t save you from a barrage of fire or short-range melee attacks. Ironclad Typeīastion’s in-take damage is reduced whenever he is transformed into an Assault or Artillery configuration. However, in open areas, throwing it on the ground or an enemy is a better use of this ability.
If an enemy is hiding in a room or a closed container, throwing it toward walls is a more effective strategy to increase your chance of hitting the enemy. Another ability that can be used tactically in battles. However, it will stick and explode if it touches the ground or an enemy. The grenade will bounce off if thrown at walls. This tactical grenade is a mixture of a sticky and standard grenade. In other words, Configuration: The Assualt ability can be canceled by pressing shift again, allowing you to switch back to your normal configuration in case you want to fall back. This ability allows Bastion to switch between Configuration Assualt and Configuration Recon with a press of the button. So make sure to aim for the center in order to hit your enemies with as many bullets as possible. Furthermore, this ability is highly effective against agile units like Lucio and Genji and flying units like Pharah.Īnother thing we would like to mention is that there is no use in aiming for the head since, in this configuration, you can not land any critical hits. If there was an added shield and a longer time duration, this could’ve Bastion’s ultimate ability, showing how monstrous it is if used at the right time. Pressing Shift will transform Bastion into a machine gun capable of even depleting the entire health bars of tanks. So transforming into his other configurations during an unfavorable situation would not be wise.
This pin-point fire rate not only enables you to pick off targets from medium-long distances but also allows you to obliterate close-ranged enemies if you can land headshots.Įven though he is not a speedy unit overall, Bastion moves the fastest in his standard mod. While in this configuration, Bastion uses a sub-machine gun which not only has amazing damage but also has no spread, further enhancing the accuracy of the weapon. This is Bastion’s standard configuration.
