'''Bastion''' is a Exotic [[fusion rifle]] in the Kinetic slot. It was introduced in [[Season of Dawn]] and was available to owners of the Season Pass via the quest [[Memento (Quest)|Memento]]. It originally belonged to [[Saint-14]], but was stolen by [[Defiled Reysk, the Waning Light|Reysk]] after Saint's disappearance. It was eventually reclaimed by [[The Guardian|Young Wolf]]. Bastion's aesthetics are meant to match [[Saint-14]]'s general look.

The epitaph is barely readable, appearing to have been scraped almost clean from the frame. Below the stricken words, five hash-marks are engraved into the weapon. A small etching in Eliksni reads:

*Bastion is the second fusion rifle, [[Linear fusion rifle|linear]] or otherwise, to be in the Kinetic slot, the first being [[Arbalest]].
*Bastion is the second fusion rifle, [[Linear fusion rifle|linear]] or otherwise, to be in the Kinetic slot, the first being [[Arbalest]].
*Bastion is stated to be one of the Young Wolf's favorite weapons.
*Bastion was noted as being a strong Crucible contender in its introductory period to the game. Subsequent balance changes made it fall out of favor, such as decreasing its capacity to be controlled during its triple burst.
*Bastion has become a notoriously good weapon in the crucible and can prove to be quite annoying to go up against.
*When charging a burst, a dial right below the sight will align a symbol of a pigeon and a symbol of a sun, both will glow the more progress is made, intensifying until they finally align. This might be in reference to [[Saint-14]]'s close bond with [[Osiris]]
