I like crucible a lot, I'm not a trials god like many of these people but that doesn't stop me from having a good time. Always assume someone has a stasis ability at the ready! Stasis in a lot of ways requires to think and plan your actions as you enter engagements and more importantly to be aware of your movement! Don't get caught out in the open if you can help it, be aware of the cover you can use to your advantage. It's also important to be aware of what kind of load out your running and play to those effective ranges, I most often find if I am being frozen then I am playing to close or I overextended and made a bad play. Another great option is playing in proximity to other players, look for team shots or having players to support/cover for you in case you do get frozen. Ascendent Nomad has a great youtube channel that covers a lot of the most important basics of succeeding in the crucible and I think now more than ever those lessons are hugely important. The two second rule and movement have been hugely helpful for developing in this new crucible. You'll still get frozen and rather than getting uspset/frustrated just let it be a great opportunity for improvement and to learn how to outplay stasis. If you really think about it Stasis is truly the antithesis of what we've become used to, Destiny has so much advanced movement options at this point that of course there had to be something to challenge it. I think its great and to me it represents a new challenge/change to a core playlist that has had very little development over the last few years. Honestly even outside of stasis each subclass offers something totally busted: spectral blades, bottom striker titan, top dawn blade warlock are all still very powerful in crucible. Vigilance Wing, Gnawing Hunger, Ace of Spades, Travelers Chosen, and other guns are extremely powerful and can help you be effective as well! Play what is going to be most fun to you!

Honestly, freezing in PvP should be a thing at all. Sure am happy I didn’t buy this dlc. I’d feel scammed

Pro tip..Rope off your controller and go afk

Bump. The freeze mechanic totally shuts down aggressive play in crucible because any time you try to push some one they just use one of their abilities to stop you dead in your tracks. None of the other subclasses have abilities so instantly lethal besides shoulder charge, which can be predicted. Being frozen is almost certain death, and no fun to play around

Don’t trigger all the noobs who can’t hit any shots but now found they can be PvP gods by freezing players with their stasis and abilities the entire game. I wish they would nerf the stasis on warlocks and hunters to the ground and make them as useless as the Titan stasis. Or just eliminate stasis from PvP period.

They already nerfed and it’s honestly not that good now,still solid but definitely not free kills.

Luke smiths niece back at it again giving bungie game development tips uncle slim I like Elsa in D2 can we build a snowman too

Well the latest hot fix has the answer you need

also just give in to the dark side.... put on a double melee exotic armor piece, max out your melee to 100 and freeze the crap out of all your opponents use ice walls to block everything and regenerate health etc.... USE their tactics against them.....

stop SHOTGUN APING and stand off at distance. You can pretty much dodge anything but a long range super.

Not any more!

Good thing destiny is a PVE game with pvp options and not just a pvp game huh

They just did a major nerf in pvp for this hotfix. Should level it out.

I noticed today as well during my titan super I was slowed by either a grenade or hunter melee and it stopped me from being able to use my super melee attack

Freeze shouldn’t affected guardians. Heavy slow would be far more balanced as it still allows some sort of defence without offering up an entirely free kill.
