How to get more stasis shots??

The workbench is not always clear when "explaining" what an upgrade node does. For instance what does it mean when my "stasis energy increases", does that mean I get more shots or does it mean the shots become more effective? I would like to increase my number of shots but I cannot find an upgrade on the bench which allows that. Then I decided hey maybe I need to upgrade my suit so I bought a next level suit, hoping that that would provide me with more stasis shots. But after upgrading my suit it still had the same amount of shots (namely three) and not a single one more. How the heck do I increase my stasis shots?? Anybody knows?

stasis energy increases" mean you can use stasis one more time before running out

I don't get it. Do you mean to say you get an extra stasis slot on that half circle on the back of your suit? or do you mean something else? I tried upgrading ERG but I never saw no difference after the upgrade.

There's a legend at the bottom of the HUD while using the bench.

HP = More health
Air = More oxygen
SIZE = Increase area effect radius of a stasis shot
DUR = Increase duration of stasis
ERG = Increase stasis energy (# of stasis shots before you run out)
KI/R = Increase the range at which you can grab something with Kinesis
KI/D = Increase Kinesis throw damage

Upgrading your suit will unlock more nodes slots for you to upgrade with power nodes which isn't entirely useful if you haven't already used up all available slots. But I still recommend it because you get other bonuses like inventory space and damage resistance.

Thanks for answering but it's still unclear to me. "Increase stasis energy" (ERG) upgrade does not increase the number of stasis shots available on your suit (the half moon circle on the back which is divided in three or more slots) so how is it that you have one more extra shot all of a sudden? In previous installments of Dead Space the number of segments on your "half moon" would increase, indicating that from that moment on you had more shots available. But in the Remake I cannot see that happening.
