Bastille is by far Vaubans most useful ability. Stuns and lifts all enemies in a HUGE radius for a long time(affected by continuity and constitution) Vs infested=permanent invincibility given an energy centric frame build(energy siphon is a must) Vs all other races =still great if not invincible..you can set multiple bastille around effectively locking down an entire defense mission(even the dmn earth ones in the large cavern) Way more effective than Vortex given that vortex cost is so high(70 with max streamline vs 35 for Bastille) also more utility as vortex does not last as long and can pull friendlies in too(bad for toxic crawlers or Toxic ancients). Also this is the ultimate partner saving tool as you can leap in cast bastille in the air and pick up friendlies while bastille still protects the pod,you, and downed friendly.
