Destiny 2 3.0.2.3 Patch Notes Introduce Big Nerfs To Stasis In Crucible
The power of Stasis is being dialed back significantly for PvP in Destiny 2, as the subclass has become too dominant in the Crucible since its introduction.
Destiny 2 s next big update has brought significant changes with it to Stasis abilities in the multiplayer Crucible mode, according to the latest patch notes. Long considered too powerful for PvP in comparison to other Guardian subclasses due to its ability to completely freeze other players, developer Bungie s latest patch has a number of tweaks to the Hunter, Titan, and Warlock subclasses that are designed to stop Stasis from dominating in multiplayer.
Destiny 2’s Stasis abilities last year with the
Beyond Light expansion, but since then they’ve been in need of a bit of fine tuning. While the developer had originally planned to address the Stasis abilities a few months from now, it decided to move them up to a hotfix that was released on Thursday.
The patch’s adjustments bring a wide range of changes to the powers. Stasis Freeze now has a slightly shorter duration and causes significantly less bonus damage from weapons moving from +50% to just plus +5%. Stasis Slow got a similar nerf causing it to no longer reduce weapon accuracy or suppress class abilities and air moves.

Destiny 2 s Next Update Brings Massive Stasis Nerfs To The Crucible
Hotfix 3.0.2.3 is coming to Destiny 2 on Tuesday, June 3, and it ll seriously ratchet back Stasis slow and freeze abilities in PvP but PvE is staying the same.
Ever since it was added to the game with the Beyond Light expansion, Destiny 2 s new Stasis abilities which give players ice-based attacks that can freeze enemies and other players solid have been hugely popular in the Crucible. A lot of players have complained that Stasis was too dominant in the PvP arena, and Bungie has slowly been making tweaks to bring the subclasses abilities in line with the ones that were already in the game. But with the next big patch to the game, Bungie is speeding up the process with updates to Stasis that significantly reduce its power in the Crucible.
