Abilities
Embrace
With Embrace, the Bastion assumes an unbreakable defensive stance, fortifying their armor and significantly boosting their resistance to knockback. In this state, they become an immovable force on the battlefield, holding the line against relentless assaults. Enemies will struggle to push them back as they stand firm while shielding their allies and absorbing incoming damage with unwavering resilience.
