Behemoth has been getting kicked for past 1 year for no reason

Stasis titan is the stepchild that bungle wants everyone wants to forget about.This subclass has been unnecessarily directly and indirectly getting nerfed for no reason what so ever. This subclass is the least played subclass in pvp,and it was severly outclassed by revenant and shadebinder in pve and with void 3.0 titans and soon arc 3.0 and solar 3.0 this subclass will just get wiped under the rug. Just in pass 3-6 months this subclass have received direct and indirect nerf,even though subclass need love in PVE,bungie word not mine. They recently nerfed bosses taking melee damage when frozen this has again indirectly gutted behemoth super with howl of the storm as much as super niche this was some were using it and now even that is gone. In 30the anniversary patch this subclass did receive some attention but there was a catch and even the buff it received disappeared in witch queen. So main things it got buffed was crystal damage got a global buff 60% more damage and diamond lance gave you 3 fragments instead of 1 which meant titans can finally have 5 fragment slot. These things were nice addition but they increased cooldown of glacier grenade the grenade titan relied on most and it never addressed the core issue of the subclass wether its awful melee,clunky hard to use super,lack of synergy between subclass and weapons,Tectonic harvest being so limited and diamond lance the ability itself being worse than snowballs from dawning and the loop being risky and unintuitve of go there and press E to pick to just freeze in a radius so small. There was a silver lining though the super did good total damage vs very large bosses and if you can proc biotic enhancements,it was super niche ,it was nowhere near iznagi + rocket or heavy weapons dps,but it was good, so much so that 3 behemoths can 1 phase riven(not that much health in sandbox). But quickly players find out that you can contain the crystals inside bubble which meant it could be used on all bosses even though it was not popular bungie went ahead and nerfed so crystals are not contained in bubble,while some might argue it was not needed,it was understandable nerf. But bungie being bungie and their crusade against stasis titans i guess maybe because of scars from beyond light pvp launch,nerfed the synthoceps + behemoth combo ,which made sure this super had a good niche with total damage alongside radiant flux arcstrider was destroyed and just light arcstrider both remain shitty roaming super to use in PVE. Protective light nerf did a number on the actually only good albeit risky competitive titan pve build with strong hold,.watch seifu youtuber what i mean If you say behemoth is good with 5 fragment slot and elemetnal shard and such i have seen the vidoes and ran builds even before that,its not bad,its decent,but at the end of the day it comes down to relative balance and there behemoth is severly out classed by revenant and shadebinder. Shadebinder one bleak watcher has more crowd control than entire neutral kit of behemoth and does it so passively for 28 sec,Revenant has great fire and forget super,melee and high dps build with bakris and 1 sec more than bubble sized duskfield grenade spam. all that while generating shards in process and using it for cwl/well build just like the so called stasis titan builds, Both harvest aspects are better than tectonic harvest which is limited to just crystals,strictly speaking pve its way limiting,meanwhile the hunter and warlock harvest aspect synergize with their subclass and stasis weapons not just limited to to glacier grenade/headstone perk.and yet it has only 2 fragment slot Why can't tectonic harvest work with shatter after all titans are supposed to be about shatter.? All stasis builds which are "Good" rely solely on HOIL and stronghold first of not only is this limiting choice of exotic,but most of the heavy lifting of these builds are done not by subclass but the exotic and mods themselves and with void 3.0 you are already see how stronghold and HOIL take a great subclass to new stratosphere same as void/stasis hunter/warlock.

  • I like the subclass alot but the super leaves a sour taste in my mouth. I wish they'd buff it maybe give us back the damage resistance it had when Stasis came out if the super is gonna move slower than a sloth. Till then i usually run Agers so i can give up my super
