I personally feel like stasis warlock is garbage. Why would I sit and wait for abilities to freeze enemies when I can outright kill them in half the time with any other subclass or even just a gun tbh. Besides strand does stasis better than stasis given that suspend is just a better freeze since you get to deal damage without breaking out if that state, and even the new frost armor is just a worse woven mail. I would’ve liked to see it explode upon expulsion by either damage or timing out to set it apart, and deal more damage in a wider aoe with an increased number of frost armor stacks. Back to the main point though, even in endgame, you can use pretty much almost anything to outright kill enemies far faster and without all the drawback of stasis. Bleak watcher is a cool aesthetic and everything but that thing takes ages to freeze one guy when I can just gun em down. There’s no real benefit to stasis in general. Hunter at least has a ton of ways to deal direct damage without requiring follow up, or minimal effort plus massive damage increases. Titan ain’t that great but the super in the right conditions can be crazy (though in general.c it’s not good either). Shadebinder doesn’t have a shatter ability which makes the ease of use far less than that of the other two classes, and the super is genuinely terrible outside of PvP and requires an aspect to be even mildly useable. Frostpulse is garbage given it requires you to be hugging someone with your rift, meaning you’re probably gonna die mid animation. Iceflare is nice but again, freezing does nothing if use when everything else in the game outright kills with more efficiency, and harvest is just a glorified fragment. Weavewalk fr needs a second slot and there’s no reason it shouldn’t have one. Also keep in mind there are far more aspects for warlock that are downright terrible in comparison to other classes/subclasses. Look at Chaos Accelerant. It is the only grenade buffing aspect that requires a charge up animation and stop super regeneration, and yet it is downright worse than the rest. Having a large vortex is useless given the suck of the regular gets the job done itself, axions are useless in PvE, the charged scatter is far worse than uncharged, and HHSN is a genuinely terrible ability now (Nevermind that they are giving titans HHSN on steroids in TFS). It should be more powerful given its drawbacks. Lightning surge is the only melee aspect that requires you to hug enemies and doesn’t even have a damage or air payout to be remotely worth it. No melee aspects on either of the other classes require you to be in their faces and actually allow you to reposition mid melee. Access to many aspect benefits almost always requires a kill where the other classes don’t need a kill (titans and hunter have multiple ways built in to grant them their class verb specialties for void, and warlock has one, which is pretty much exactly the same as using the fragment with very little benefit added). Even prismatic looks like a joke. No real theme. Just a bunch of set and forget abilities and one that’ll get you killed. This ain’t even considering the MASSIVE deficit warlocks have in terms of melees and supers. Warlocks aren’t a support class and shouldn’t be treated as such. One super and one ability don’t make them support, just like hunters aren’t pure utility and titans aren’t pure tanks because of one subclass. It’s an identity they were forced into with forsaken and the only way to break out is for Bungie to actually solve the problems the class has or remove classes outright so abilities can be looked at without bias.
