Bastion

I'm putting it out there that the current temporary modifiers for Bastion of increased speed and hit points should be made permanent. These passive buffs make Bastion more reasonable of a mech. Actually, I think the speed is more beneficial than the hit points.

If lowering the ability cooldown or increasing the shield hp is not in the cards, this is the least t do.

I get the idea of a "rotating meta", but these temp buffs aren't making Bastion meta. They make it better for everyday play.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and suggestions about Bastion! I understand where you’re coming from.

I’ll be sure to pass your feedback along to the team for consideration.

what  the point of using bastion now when we have vortex out there(tankier with 50% dmg reduc),faster,8s cd vs 16s cd. Like seriously they need a full rework on this guy (atleast make him have dame reduction,dmg buff or tankier shield while having some anti debuff exchange for how slow and large he is.

Because I already have Bastion and not Vortex.

It is too much to ask that the ability cooldown be reduced 3 seconds, shield hp increased, and shield blast damage increased. These, along with the speed increase, would make Bastion formidable. 

Sometimes the problem is having to chase down mechs that stay just out of emp range.

Vortex doesn't work on revokers, reavers, burrow beam, and short reload weapons. There is a place for Bastion's emp.

Bastion need a major buff,like when you playing hangar showdown and see a tank:oh no it death walker,holysheet  parasite,block horn,vortex but it never a bastion,like it literally a legend with a uncommon shield and nuts speed.
