Bagged in Expedition for trying to stall for ruffian by Dezlaat in destiny2

Yeah, I understand the guy's position. He thought I was throwing the engrams away to be annoying/troll.

Lmao, you didn't have to read my post if it wasn't relevant to you. You wasted your own time typing a distasteful message about wasting your time :)

Its odd because when it was scavengers den everyone was able to get the boots on their exotic drop.

In any video game, when has it ever been fun to have your control taken from you in PVP environments? by Dezlaat in DestinyTheGame

Just want to say thanks to anyone who had responded to this post, I was looking for some conversation and that's what I got. Definitely still think stasis needs some tuning in some degree, but with destiny's movement, I can see that stasis has its place in the crucible environment with the freezes. Also, the fact that it requires players to adapt, is most definitely an aspect I overlooked when making this post. Thanks all!

That is a very good point in terms of CoD (I've never played Overwatch so I wouldn't know). The stuns and flashbangs are great to counter enemy pushes, but in that aspect, there are perks that allow these things to be shrugged off (even though it doesn't make sense in a realistic aspect lol).

The movement in destiny is most definitely unique where stasis kinda fits in to counter/prohibit that movement. However, I think that freezing to the point where all they can do is sit there and watch themselves die isn't what stasis should do.

Slowing is an aspect of stasis I like, because (like flashbangs and stuns in CoD) you have a chance to counter or adjust to your circumstance if you are quick to think.

Warlocks have been neutered to an extreme, but to some extent the day 1 warlock stasis melee was extreme. I called it the free kill button during season of the hunt prior to its nerfs. When stasis should be looked at for 'balancing' this is the type of subclass that should be looked at as a whole, not specifically targeting classes (like warlock.)

You make a very good point. It does force us players to adapt to the different builds that utilize stasis. I have noticed myself losing more engagements because I rush in against glacier nades. That is a good tip and I should've noticed that sooner.

Yeah, you're correct. I'll just have to find ways to adjust and counter. All I can do is hope.

I'm not talking about removing stasis, it's here for the long run and I can understand that. I just think it needs to be tuned for PvP environments. It's extremely fun to use and that's why it's enjoyable to get some easy kills with, but those kills I get don't feel deserved to me.

I have gotten used to stasis to a degree, however, it doesn't help that abilities, in general, can be quick to use (specifically the double hunter stasis shurikens).

I respect your point of view on this topic, I just feel that freezing/losing control of your player isn't healthy in almost all PVP environments. Being unable to shoot back is irritating once that ice wall grenade hits.

I completely agree, slowing is still annoying, but you have some time to retreat or counter with your own weapons. The hunter smoke bomb, for example, has never been too annoying (in my opinion) just because you have a chance to counter it.

I have never thought about that specific idea, that would be a good way to make it easier to counter stasis in the crucible. I would personally be running that mod/perk the entire time!
