Everyone’s thinking about Duskfield grenades, but I should remind you that Coldsnaps also get buffed by that same Aspect, creating stasis crystals upon hitting a target, and you obviously don’t have to be accurate with it either, plus the added funtionality of freezing several targets if they are close together as well as chaining once. It quite potent!
The build feels better on stasis because while the nonstop melee thing during transcendant is nice, the regen outside transcendant is a LOT slower compared to stasis. During onslaught yesterday I basically had a melee charge up all the time, and if I didn't I wouldn't be waiting more than like 3-5 seconds for another one.
So, quick tip: if a weapon has an unlisted anti-champion capacility, like Wicked Implements anti Overload and Unstoppable capabilities, it won't benefit from artifact mods like anti barrier scout rifle. The same thing also goes for Conditional Finality, in case people were wondering.
i think verglas curve is kinda missunderstood, and the best for this build because you said :"it only create stasis crystal" but thats not the case, because stasis crytal from verglas curve when shoot near a ennemy or directly on a ennemy, directly freeze him, so it create stasis crystal and insta-froze target, presisely what we want with this build I think, just my though of course, good vidéo overall
You should run coldnap grenade next time with touch of winter, it duplicates every hit and it makes bigger stasis crystals each hit making massive shatter damage. Don’t know why this change flew under the radar
It's mainly because people think warlock with osmiomancy when it comes to coldsnaps. On the pvp side hunters are glued to stompees, wormhusk, knucklehead and the exotic class item and pve they're glued to golden gun but beefy, exotic class item, and lucky pants so on both sides they're ignoring everything that isn't bungie nerfing their crutches lol. Don't get me wrong I play my fair share of hunter when I'm bored with warlock but it gets annoying fighting the same braindead easy to run garbage every game, especially the corner humping 140 and igneous crutchers. That shits ok, but osmiomancy coldsnaps had to be nerfed because the ONE TIME stompees crutchers aren't jumping they MIGHT get tagged by them if the grenade bothers to track to them on an accurate throw 😂
@@ShadowNemesis575 idk how or why you made turned this into a whole thing about the pvp sandbox but it aint that deep its literally just cause it happened at the same time as the biggest sandbox addition like ever
i like duskfield better because of how much better its AoE is. bigger aoe = more targets slowed more targets slowed = more refraction procs more refraction procs = more dodges more dodges = more shurikens
@@MacticsG1cold snap has significantly better aoe ever since final shape. A lot of people missed it but they reworked how it works with the hunter aspect. Not only does it have an extra chain, but it spawns a crystal on impact with the ground along with every time it freezes an enemy, allowing it to create up to 4 crystals. I have a quick 1 min vid on my channel that shows how much better it is now. I greatly prefer it to duskfield.
@@MacticsG1 you like a lot of people probably forgot about the coldsnap buff cause of prismatic happening at the same time but coldsnaps with touch of winter can now duplicate and freeze a LOT of enemies with better coverage than a duskfield (and also creates a good bit of stasis crystals)
Yea but you have to wait weeks to be able to properly farm it and we have plenty of stasis handcannon options that arguably power creep it at least on the pve side. I personally like bold endings but at the end of the day its user preference

15:40 Just a heads up for Mactics and everyone else: It has always been like that with every weapon that has inate anti-champion capabilities. They can't inherit artifact champion perks.
Looks fun! Can't wait to try it. What are your thoughts on the new stasis burst hand Canon that can get pugilist/demo and headstone? Would you pick pugilist over demo?
The new warlock exotic is great for pve and bullies apes in pvp. The stasis buddy ensures no one can run at you in a straight line and it ensures that the Stacy turret's shots will land. Literally every bullet you fire slows and paired with Wicked Implement is especially mean in pvp
i still have things to redeem in every single season pass from season of the plunder. like glimmer and few armors that i use every season if i just need one specific slot to get my power just by one notch up. I ahve a lot of exotic engrams, deepsight harmonizers :D
I hate the design of this helmet but I love the perks. I can’t wait to get it myself. I’ll probably get it when bungie gets around to nerfing it. And if I do get it, I’ll be making all my clothes look like they’re rhino/elephant skin and tusks.
Glacier grenade + shatter dive + the new helmet + wicked implement = bunch of crystals and frozen enemies that you can shatter dive and a bunch of melee energy from stasis shards
Mac, I pulled out your Prismatic spirit of cyrtarachne's / inmost light build for episode start and it just creams this build. I'm sorry but i'm struggling to see how this is worth it, it seems kinda wonky and easily disruptable when others are around.
Antibarrier isn't working on Wicked Impliment rn. Just a heads up yall, idk if it's a bug or what but it won't break the shield. Nor does it pass through standard shields on enemies
I think the "problem" with the barriermods this season is that it states that you shoot "fire rounds" to penetrate tge barriers of said champions. Since ice and fire negate each other it's not working. Its the same with the conditional finality shotgun from RON that doesn't get the barrier perk, but all the other shotguns do. I might be wrong with that because I didn't test other stasis shotguns/scouts but that might be it. Or it's bugged, you choose 😂
The new warlock exotic is busted. I only tried it on prismatic with devour so far, but it's possible that stasis is even better since it has better fragments.
Why wouldn’t you want higher strength instead of discipline since you get faster grenade cooldown from breaking crystals? Wouldn’t you want shurikens up all the time with dodge as a fallback if needed?
Game breaking bug from an item that benefits the players; Bungie disables that item or the bug fixed immediately. Game breaking bug from an item that does not benefit the players; Bungie says they'll fix it in 3 weeks. Gotta love that we're always playing a beta version of a game or new content and never a alpha version.
A build I used on titan from the beginning of this episode is just normal prismatic consecration titan but with mask of the quiet one. Been good fun so far
You can increase shatter size with prismatic too though no way I’m coming off prismatic I tried it yesterday it’s just not as good slow ability regen and your stuck to one super option I’m good
The ability regen on prismatic outside transcendence pales in comparison to the regen on stasis if you build into it. Stasis lets you have basically 100% uptime on melee charges and frost armor x8 with the stasis shards, plus with all the crystals spawning you can have your coldsnap grenade (which is far better than duskfield now) up as fast as whisper of shards can regen the grenade. Prismatic is still insane, but as far as this helmet goes stasis is far and away the best choice
This new way of getting new exotics is incredibly frustrating. In the past, I could just spend 20-30 minutes in a lost sector to grab it. Even with INCREDIBLY bad luck, it would take 1-2 hours to get. Now, as someone who took a couple month break from the game, there’s just no feasible way for me to get this exotic. It’s going to take at least 10+ hours of grinding to get all the engrams and upgrade mats. Just makes me not even at all excited for the new exotics.
Too much work just to set off your melee perk so a mediocre return. Calibans on solar will be a better choice with restoration. Unless you got a stasis shuriken fantasy, then go have a blast!!
