If you dislike this video you're a blow hard using that cheese warlock freeze melee in QP aren't ya
It's been fun, but after a time it's gonna get really frustrating and annoying
Ice ice baby…
try second tree titan solar, the one noone uses with the hammer melee you can throw and pick up, it seems like if you throw your hammer at an enemy while they are casting and get a hit before they have a chance to get the freeze off it will disrupt the stasis and you can take out the stasis caster with a good melee hit or a shotgun blast thats the only real 'counter' i guess that ive found… it takes some good aim and timing to get a hit with the hammer but it works, try it
all the Hunter mains that suddenly became warlock mains overnight… ya lol 😂 so true, it takes no skill to be a hunter, and stasis Warlock plays itself you really dont have to do anything
I understand why they did what they did.
But Destiny should’ve either been free from the jump or never have been free in the first place.
It’s disrespectful to people who bought everything until that point and ever since then-
It’s been a straight up cash grab.
Probably they give staisis after witch queen launch.
In short: Yes
I don't enjoy freezing people. It feels cheap and lacks any skill. I'm into gunplay and actual firefights. Bungie exposed their complete lack of common sense and foresight when they launched these absurd abilities.
I like already while still watching ads because i agree with your title in this vid
I think stasis freezing is absolutely busted in pvp and it will only get worse as players get better and smarter with it, i didnt think about the f2p aspect but it absolutely is p2w
This is the worst meta ever no point in using guns in a first person shooter anymore
F2p here, honestly I'm just a bitter d1 vet who wont give bungie another cent. With that said it sucks to get frozen but with my hate towards bungies dumbass design decisions since d1, with the idea of pay me more money to fix a game I was supposed to originally promised, I'm not spending money on an expansion just for a power.
Yes, it is
I have been playing destiny 2 since curse of Osiris with the complete edition with all the year 1 stuff but I bought forsaken and shadowkeep on holiday discounts , and I plan to do the same thing with beyond light, and right now I am just so pissed at the stasis warlocks, I get on average around five of them per game including teammates
Man I was a Warlock main since day one and now all these hunters and titans tryna act like they know me
Stasis breaks the GAME
I'm free to play.
But I got BL from Game Pass, does that count?
I was actually a hunter main for the last 2 years, having switched to warlock actually not for shadebinder, but because me and my friends all played hunter and needed some diversity.
I hate being froze in place but the random ice walls are pretty cool i like how they instantly allture the enviroment and force players to adapt to there surroundings.
It's bullshit, they've taken away almost all the game I paid for, left it with stuff I have to pay more for, and now crucible which I thought was broken anyway is now even worse because there are people with stasis which I cannot have unless I pay for the game once again.
They have not added enough for me to essentially pay 30 quid for a couple of skills and 30 minutes of story dialogue.
Freezing should not be a thing
When pvp is broken and pve is boring:
Me: Aight, imma head out
I commented on a video of yours the other day where I agreed with how stasis shouldn’t do things like go through a bubble or a barricade (btw when knights bring up their own barrier, it doesn’t!)
But I have been having more second thoughts about whether stasis is absolutely broken.
I have been using a warlock and, of course, experimenting with that nasty melee ball. My experience has been that you can’t really hit players effectively with it unless they really rush towards you. Its best use for me has been so far to stop shotgun rushers, titan shoulder charges, or any other situation where someone pursues you carelessly. The trick seems to be to keep a healthy distance, unless you’re absolutely sure they spent their melee.
Tbh, I always hated the shotgun rushers, and used to counter them with that handheld grenade in the last. I’m kinda glad that in a way stasis is that kind of player worst nightmare.
I believe you should only be able to be slowed in the crucible not frozen, it would balance it out quite a bit like making the warlock melle a mini dusk field grenade
Not gonna lie it kinda sucks as a hunter ftp-er. Better shutdowns than blade barrage, better neutral and grenades than spectral, better control than tether, and better melee than gunslinger. Cool thing in mayhem though bottom tether let's you repeatedly break out of stasis freeze as long as you don't die because someone one hits you with anything anything.
IDK I haven't used it but I assume if they reduce some AOEs and make only the supers freeze or make freeze shorter and less punishing it could be balanced. For now it feels strong to sell the dlc and I get that but I don't have to like it.
I like stasis, the only two things I’d change is the warlock melee to slow, not freeze. And the freeze mechanic to be reduced to 2 second duration. Or keep the 5 seconds but you become invulnerable during this time. This means players can reposition themselves to an advantageous position for the upcoming gunfight or get to zones first etc
Yeah the freezing grenades and melees pretty much makes them 1 shot abilities because there is no counter play. Same as sticky grenades in D1 no skill no counter play. Nothing you can do except join them and that is probably why bungie made them so strong so everyone would buy it. Once enough people buy it they will nerf the grenades and melee. The supers might need adjusting too. Maybe make the freeze only do you legs so you can still shoot.
I have beyond light.
destiny is pay 2 play if u dont know. plz remove f2p
Guys, guys we all know warlock super is the new anti cheat and it was given to all of us. Thank you bungie.
Yes
I don't think destiny is that "p2w" on xbox since all DLC are available on gamepass so new players have access to everything
I've been playing stormcaller all of the first week and I have the expansion lol….but yea… It's rough getting frozen in your super ☹️
I can't imagine anyone free 2 play ever stepping into this Beyond Light crucible. That sounds like a nightmare.
On xbox everyone has it lol
Enjoying the ridiculousness of Stasis. Shakes up the old Meta
I think this is easily the most broken thing bungie has ever released. Excluding things like prometheus lens that shipped unintentionally broken
just get good
Nah it’s not pay 2 win, it’s just unbalanced right now!
in PvE i think stasis is right where it needs to be, in fact some of the light classes can prove to be more useful in some situations. PvP, however, melee and grenades freezing players with such relative ease is rough to deal with (especially psychologically lol). but even as we talk about stasis and what its capable of, we don't even have everything unlocked for it yet so there is more to come. prepare yourself.
Anything that can prevent you from defending yourself and gives the opponent a 100% chance of killing you is broken and should not be a feature
I’ve bought every dlc accept this one, reason cuz I am broke. It’s painful getting killed
