Burning steps and exotics tied to subclasses

Before stasis haters and crayon eaters start acting all butthurt: I’m glad burning steps was added. A anti stasis exotic is great but it’s also busted. It’s too strong and has too many benefits for simply wearing them. Most exotics with two+ buffs and ease of use usually have that limiter of being tied to a subclass. The sheer amount of crap the exotic can do should have just been tied to the solar element or have the exotic tied to the hammer titan only. Just limiting it to hammer titans would still keep it strong since it’s a strong subclass The list of abilities alone are worth limiting it to one subclass: 1. Breaking out of frozen causes no damage 2. Breaking out of frozen causes a solar explosion 3.breaking out of frozen is immediate 4. Chill only applies half stacks 5. Escalating damage boost on solar final blows (can’t remember if it’s for all weapons or just solar) 6. Damage boost on being chilled (not sure if it’s a bug) This shit is the exact scenario if bakris wasn’t tied to stasis and had both damage boosts active during pvp. Not to mention this doesn’t fix stasis being overused (it’s not op, light subclasses are just underpowered), since these boots can be used with a stasis class. Also that damage boost is just begging for more igneous hammers, felwinters, and (if anyone was feeling ballsy) osmosis would turn godly. All that crap (except for #5) rewards bad players for being bad and introduces the oem problem all over again. Overall burning steps need to have the damage boost on being chilled removed and needs to be tied to the solar subclass especially when there are already more stasis nerfs coming. I (and many others) know this exotic is going to wreck pvp than oem. Edit: I’m enjoying watching the the upvote counter go up down. Glad to know not everyone is a little kid who got stomped in crucible and can see that bungo added another broken exotic to titans lol

The stupid boots is completely ineffective against spectral so it only amounys to a gimmick. Will be vaulted in a week.

    • I personally don’t mind it too much, but then again I stopped caring about the state of PvP ages ago. The way I see it if this work on all subclass including Stasis then Bakris should work on light subclasses (I like the exotic, but I don’t want to use revenant).

      • Well the more people cry about a titan exotic ruining their OP stasis, The more bungie will look to nerf it. Just like they did one eyed mask all those years ago, which not many titans use anymore. it will be come as usless as all the other worthless exotics that no titan main uses. Enjoy it while it last, and thank the toxic community ahead of time.

            • As a Titan player, at minimum, I agree that only Sunbreakers should be able to use all these benefits. If Striker/Sentinel/Behemoth wear it, they should only get the "Solar final blows increase weapon damage" which would be like a solar powered Rampage. In my mind it makes sense.

            • IDC tbh. I think most exotics are bad. So maybe they need to look at some old ones and make them exotic. Though yeah, these seem a little potent. But they kinda need to be because you can't counter stasis unless everyone is using stasis.

              • It should be locked to light subsclasses. Maybe even only solar subclasses. It definitely should not work on Behemoth. All the stuff above negating the effects of stasis that you mentioned are positives. It merely highlights how over powered stasis abilities are in PvP. The accuracy debuff from slow/stasis basically decides who wins a gunfight. Light warlocks and hunters should also have exotics that negate stasis effects in PvP.

                I 100% agree. I wouldn’t mind if they kept the exotic just the way it is, just tie it to the hammer subclass or even to the Code of the Devastator tree since that would make sense lore-wise. It’s still gonna be VERY strong. Being able to use this exotic in it’s current state on ALL subclasses is pretty OP. My crucible main will be a titan until they nerf this😉

              • Bump. It feels like this thing has multiple exotic perks at once.

                Yeah you are right. If this gets a pass I’ll vote for Baakris to work on all subclasses. No jokes aside Burning Steps should at least not work an Behemoth Titan.

                • Remember when the one eyed mask first came out and how it was used just about by every titan (pre nerfs)...think this will be the case with the new exotic
