What are the best Destiny 2 Titan Stasis builds? An element of Darkness, Stasis leverages the power of ice and cold to slow, freeze, and shatter enemies. Upon its introduction in The Beyond Light expansion, Stasis introduced the Aspects and Fragments system that drastically changed Destiny 2 buildcrafting.
Stasis is powerful, and a proper Titan Stasis build can ensure you dominate PvP or PvE content. Unlike the Arc builds, Solar builds, and Void builds, which were developed with the power of the Light, Stasis is the FPS game‘s first Darkness subclass. And, it will likely remain powerful, even against the forthcoming Destiny 2 Strand subclass, debuting on the Destiny 2 Lightfall release date in the space game, which many players say is one of the best free PC games available. Here are the best Destiny 2 Warlock Stasis builds that can help you in everything from Destiny 2 Trials of Osiris to farming Adept Destiny 2 Nightfall weapons by grinding Grandmasters.
Best Titan PvE Stasis build: Hoarfrost Barricade Behemoth
This build is made for maximum carnage, leveraging the Hoarfrost-Z chest armour to create a wall of Stasis crystals that slows nearby targets when created. This renders the Titan nearly impenetrable. Paired with a slew of modifications that highlight Stasis abilities, it’s one of the most powerful Titan PvE builds in the game.
Class: Behemoth – Glacial Quake
Glacial Quake: Summon stasis gauntlet that freezes targets and sends out Stasis crystals to freeze additional ones. Heavy attack causes a glacial shockwave, while light supercharges Shiver Strike for bonus damage.
Essential stats: Tier 10 Resilience, Tier 10 Intelligence if possible
Masterwork armour to maximise stats, and use armour mods to increase them even more.
Class abilities
Rally Barricade: Creates a small barricade that you can peek over, which also increases weapon reload speed, stability, and range.
Strafe Lift: Jump with strong directional control.
Shiver Strike: Hold to leap through the air. Releasing unleashes a powerful dash attack.
Glacier grenade: Creates a wall out of Stasis crystals, which can be shattered for damage.
Aspects
Tectonic Harvest: Shatter a Stasis crystal to create a Stasis shard. Shard grants melee energy when picked up by player or allies.
Diamond Lance: Shatter or defeat a target with Stasis abilities to create a Stasis lance. Throw it to freeze targets on impact. Slam it to freeze targets in a small area.
Fragments
Whisper of Fissures: Increases the damage and size of Stasis burst when you destroy a Stasis crystal or defeat a frozen target.
Whisper of Shards: Shattering a Stasis crystal temporarily increases grenade recharge rate. (+10 Resilience).
Whisper of Refraction: Defeating slowed or frozen targets grants class ability energy.
Whisper of Chains: When you are near frozen targets or near a friendly Stasis crystal, take less damage.
Whisper of Rime: Collecting a Stasis shard grants a small amount of Overshield, which falls off after 10 seconds. Additional shards add to the Overshield and reset the timer.
Exotic armour
Hoarfrost-Z: When playing as Stasis, Barricade becomes a wall of Stasis crystals that slows nearby targets when created. Standing behind the barricade grants you and your allies increased weapon reload speed, stability, and range.
Armour mods
Bomber: Reduces grenade cooldown when using class ability.
Innervation: Reduces grenade cooldown when you pick up an Orb of Power.
High-Energy Fire: When Charged with Light, gain a bonus to weapon damage.

Elemental Time Dilation: Elemental well mods that grant time-limited benefits now stack.
Weapons
Weapon containing a Headstone trait: Precision final blows spawn a Stasis crystal at the victim’s location.

How to unlock Stasis Aspects and Fragments
As a final note, it’s useful to know Stasis is only available to players to own Beyond Light and have completed the Beyond Light campaign. Upon completing it, players must visit the Exo Stranger in the Beyond on Europa to pick up the Born into Darkness quest. Upon completing the mission, players will unlock Stasis. However, unlocking Destiny 2 Stasis subclass Aspects and Fragments requires a few additional steps, some of which can be rather tedious. Guardians can also only pick up a limited number of such quests each week, so upon completion, be sure to pick your Aspects and Fragments wisely.
