It’s bad writing. Kinda like how Stasis is now a consciousness power cause…reasons.

  • I’m the witch queen deluxe edition we were given the hidden dossier, in which one of Ikoras hidden researches what stasis is. I’m this the hidden find that stasis is similar to a virus, as it can think and adapt to keep “jumping” from host to host through collective consciousness similar to the vex. Therefore stasis is directly related to consciousness as bungie states

  • That’s explaining how Stasis spreads, doesn’t show how it’s related to consciousness.

  • What shared consciousness? You said it moves around like a hive mind virus. No one is sharing minds. Outside that line, it’s no where in the lore about Stasis. You said it’s sentient and spreading mind to mind. That’s nothing like shared consciousness. Sentience? It being aware doesn’t the make the power related to consciousness. That’s describing it’s behavior. Someone else elaborated, sentience allows it to spread from user to user. How does freezing people or making crystals, something rigid and unmoving, express this theme? Solar is the energy of change, high energy means what? Friction, fire. The power expresses the theme. Strand, the dude in the showcase says something about strings connecting minds, the power is about strings. See what I mean? Whatever that info is, doesn’t connect it.

  • Dude I literal just read my hidden dossier from my collectors edition. That’s how it’s described. This book is cannon. Just cuz it’s one line doesn’t mean it’s not true

  • And you’re mistakenly conflating a power being sentient with the power being related to consciousness. That’s like saying because Solar burns it’s about fire. It’s not. It’s about the quanta (energy) of change, per its lore card. Theme’s are expressed in the powers themselves. Strand: theme is strings connect mind. Power uses strings to move yourself and others. Literally connecting you and them. Stasis is a mind virus, that moves around from host to host. Uses crystals to…freeze…things and shatter them. Now, Strand’s power expresses its theme. Stasis does not express anything remotely related to some mind virus.

  • I would say that the other people that read it know it too. I’ll look for it later and reply here for you.

  • I’ll keep looking but the closest I’ve found is a mention of stasis being sentient referenced from the hidden dossier from WQ. I remember a friend talking about the lore is making canon of the stasis nerfs and it reacted to the guardians distaste of it.

  • It might be a little more than that, sorry I had a whole different point planned but I came to a specific revelation. Might it have something to do with the fact that we can use Stasis without requiring our Splinter? The Light needs some means to be used, for us it was our Ghost. Ghaul drained it directly from the Traveler and it burned him up. But even after Eramis crushed our Splinter we were still able to tap into Stasis. Perhaps we’re seeing an expansion on that, with Darkness being a more underlying power that those knowledgeable can pull on. It would certainly explain why the Hive use so many damn rituals. Honestly Lightfall, Neomuna and Strand have me slightly miffed as well, but so long as things are adequately fit into place and meaningfully expand the universe it’s fine by me. Not so bad as that damn Warmind retcon we had to stomach.
