Stasis Rework (Opinion of a Veteran Player, that played S4 - S18)
I've been playing Destiny 2 since Forsaken and have played every season from Black Armory to worthy to plunder. What I mean to say is please think about the following changes and please don't dismiss them as a bad idea. (i have over 4000h Playtime on steam)
The following changes concern the Stasis focus and how to make it attractive to players again and what the focus is still missing. Let's take the light foci as an example. Each Light Focus has at least 4 items that can be used against enemies or for yourself. For example solar. There are 3 buffs and 2 debuffs. Void has 3 buffs and 3 debuffs. Arkus has 2 buffs and 2 debuffs.
New Buff:
Stasis still needs a buff. As an example we take the elementary fragments. Why don't they give a buff like Cryostasia for example.
If Cryostasia is activated you can freeze yourself, you are temporarily immune, but cant move (Nova etc. kills anyway). Breaking out causes a small shockwave that slows (freezes them on slowed enemies). You could also add a grenade that gives you the buff.
You get Cryostasia by picking up Stasis Shards or by defeating enemies with Stasis Abilities/Weapons.
fragments:
-Cryostasia can now be stacked (you can use it more than 1 time with a cooldown)
-while Cryostasia is active, your melee and grenade energy recharge faster
Now for a new melee ability.
Hunter:
Stasis shuriken get stuck in walls. When touched (close) they explode and slow down opponents (2x freeze opponents)
Warlock:
he briefly raises his stasis scepter to shatter at close range (no freeze)
Titan:
His Stsis Fist charges up (like arc) to create a Stasis Blast. Direct hits freeze. Environment is slowed down.
grenades:
Cryostasia Granade, gives you Cryostasia but slowes you for a short time
Hallway Grenade, Creates a floor of stasis that freezes enemies who walk into it. Doesn't work on hovering enemies (like Shanks or Harpys)
Assault Grenade, a cloud of stasis that travels and slows slightly (less than Dust Granade)
Dry Ice Grenade, On impact, creates a dome of opaque dry ice fog that blinds enemies and prevents them from healing. When left hte Granade immediately disappears the effect. (like a classic smoke grenade)
I like the concept of Cryostasia better than Stasis Fragments. Or just replace the Stasis Shards ability regeneration with Cryostasia.
