Frost Armor in PvE is still bad.
Using Frost Armor is still bad regardless of how many stacks you have, or how fast you can generate it back. Tier 10 resilience with Frost Armor, will have little to no benefit and is arguably worse than not having Frost Armor, as you have to go out of your way to shatter Stasis Crystals and collect Stasis Shards.
Solution: Make Frost Armor LIKE an overshield that decays over time and cannot be renewed until all of the Frost Armor is either removed by enemy fire, or a timer runs out.

1 Replyfrost armor should appear on the screen as in icy effect overshield.

It’s really not as good compared to Woven, Overshield etc. They need to increase the amount of DR per stack, x5 should be 35 DR and x8 should be 45-50 DR
-
2 RepliesI really would prefer if it decayed over time like Armor Charges instead of all at once like Woven Mail, would make it much more useful and easier to maintain.

I don’t really feel the benefit of Frost Amor. Doesn’t feel as viable as an over shield.

1 ReplyWhat if frost armor acted like an overshield, and increased melee damage, but melee attacks also chip away at frost armor and apply a small agility penalty
-
1 ReplyCan’t tell you how many times frost armor and icefall mantles have saved me this week in the GM. I think it’s working great
-
It’s working fine. I’m almost constantly at 8 stacks on my Revenant with Renewal Grasps and Whisper of Rime for 36% DR. Feels solid.

Well yea. If you have been paying attention to the forums the stasis subclass has been nerf'd several times since beyond light. Even though Bungie has said they desire for the subclass to be brought to par. The best example that jump outs were the removal of stat bonuses from fragments in addition to a number on stat penalty's being added to fragments. I honestly hoped they would have walked back these changes by now. But I guess they are still tone deaf.
-
Just make it decay and it would already be much better
-
I hope they add a unique texture to it, rn it just has the generic pale overshield texture which imo is very lame and lazy
-
It’s does need to be built into. And I find that only a full stasis subclass build allows that. With that being said I have tanked lucent hive supers with x8 frost armor and max resilience. Came in clutch in light blade Gm as to allow a more aggressive gameplay style.

Rimestealer is a big addition, making it much more convenient to get - especially when Enhanced. I propose that, as Frost Armor is stack-based, the timer expiring should remove a stack or two instead of the whole thing falling off. Maybe reduce the duration per stack a bit to compensate for a big uptime increase.
