Stasis Aspects
So I've been playing Stasis for PvE for a very long time now (On all classes)
And looking over the Aspects there are a few I think simply gives to few fragments slots and others that gives to many.
Looking at the Warlock and Titan when all aspects are combined they would have 8 fragments available
Where the Hunter only has 7.
Titans I think hits the sweet spot by having 3,2,2,1 since this in total gives 8 in total but also allows for a 5 fragment build.
Warlocks have 2,2,2,2 and Hunters have 3,2,1,1
My main changes are with the Hunter and Warlock.
If we start out with Hunter since its the simple one.
I would change Winter's Shroud from 1 fragment -> 2 fragment slots. (Winter's Shroud adds slow to enemies if you dodge near them)
To me the fact that this one only gives 1 fragment slot seems extremely weird...
I could see why it would have been 1 fragment slot if we were in pre-nerf stasis or if Radiant Dance machines still worked with Winter's shroud (only works on the first dodge now) this change would also put the Hunter to a total of 8 fragments just like the Warlock and Titan.
As for the Warlock I would change Glacial Harvest from 2 fragments -> 3 fragment slots
and change Bleak Watcher from 2 fragments -> 1 fragment slot
Bleak Watcher in my opinion is one of the strongest aspects there is in the game and I'm honestly baffled that it gives 2 fragments.
And since I know most Warlocks run this combo of Glacial Harvest and Bleak Watcher it would still give them 4 fragments just like now.
I'm no Warlock main so I don't know if this would be something Warlock mains would even be happy for I just think its a shame Warlocks currently can't build into 5 fragments
But if Warlocks rather stick with the 2,2,2,2 then its just the Hunter I think that needs to have 8 fragment slots open as well.
I would love to hear what you guys think and thanks in advance :)

1 Reply100% agree with the Winter’s Shroud stuff. It either needs a 2nd fragment or add an additional effect like “defeating slowed enemies improves reload speed and mobility for a short time”. Glacial Harvest and Grim Harvest both need buffs. Stasis crystals feel generally weak across the board when you need enemies for them to work. Titans are okay as they just need to punch a Crystal for it to work, while warlocks need to freeze an enemy and hunters need to kill a slowed or frozen enemy. Ionic traces work really well and kinda power-crept stasis shards out of the game… Don’t know how to buff them though. Bleak Watcher is strong and gives 2 fragment slots, but it has one of the harshest penalties for an ability in the game. No matter what Grenade you choose, it’s recharge rate is going to be that of a glacier Grenade - the 2nd slowest charging Grenade in the game. Unlike usual glacier grenades, you can’t speed it up by shattering stasis crystals. This leaves you needing to build very heavily into grenades to even make the cooldown manageable. Osmiomancy can help as having a 2nd grenade by default makes it easier to keep 1 always charging. If they were to nerf the fragment slots, this penalty would have to be reduced by a good margin.
