Stasis Buff?

[Cryptix]

Does stasis seem a little... underpowered to you guys? I dunno, been using it recently and I can't see any reason to use it over any other subclass, especially on Hunter.

Seems like it's been power crept by other subclasses, maybe it's time for a little buff?

Warlock stasis seems to be in the best spot but even then I would I use that over any other subclass? I dunno, am I the only one that thinks this?

The only thing it needs is a bugfix where cryoclasm, shatterdive and whisper of fissues don't malform the damage type so that it can actually synergise with our weapons and mods properly. If it worked properly, i think it'd be pretty powerful, though maybe still a bit lacking on hunter in pve

Oh ♥♥♥♥ yeah that really would fix stasis tbh, didn't even know that was an issue...
though I feel like hunter would be left in the dust lol

I only use stasis when I have to. I have exotic armor for arc, void and solar, but none for stasis. Stasis melees for Beyond Light campaigns seem to only increment when using melee next to a frozen NPC. Vanguard melees will increment but not stasis.
I also try not to use void for super kill bounties.

Well Strand can do most of what Stasis can do except better so even if you didn't want to play light subclasses you'd basically just be left with Strand...

Not to mention how awfully clunky Behemoth feels. The melee whiffs 90% of the time and does not really do anything special. Stasis shards are mostly irrelevant expect in pvp attempting to get the melee back as a movement option. The super is only good for single target boss damage on a boss that does not move at all. Cadmus Ridge Lancecap is practically useless for how many conditions you have to meet. Stasis crowd control can only dream about being anywhere near as effective as Strand. I get that Stasis was busted when it first launched, but now I would rather use any of the other subclasses over it, especially Titan. I currently only use Stasis for the sound design and the aesthetic because those elements are very pleasing, even then, playing Stasis feels like a detriment to my gameplay.

This is all just my experience of course.

Yeah it was OP when BL first dropped in order to entice players to buy it because it was OP by design. Then months later Bungle finally relented and nerfed it several times and now it is the least used PAID subclass in the entire game and they have yet to fix it. Considering how bad BL was as far as content, aside from the Deep Stone Crypt raid I doubt they will do much to buff stasis or fix long term bugs. No money in it for them any more, now it's Lightfall and strand that's the pay to win subclass.

Yep the super is a joke. It doesnt follow the target and almost harmless. Throwing 2 shuriken doesnt kill a thing and the grenade doesnt track the target either. I learned to channel the super into Ager's Scepter which puts out about 5 times the damage.

if it helps it is a two stage if I recall correctly
First has barely any tracking and is more likely to whiff

Second stage has the tracking & is unlikely to miss in my experience (best way I learned it is hold than let go before you want the hit)
