Thought on PVE Stay Frosty (Rimestealer + Headstone)?
For those who have the above roll of Stay Frosty and tried it out.. I must be missing something.. it seems very weak? [i](I have had 4 drop and deleted 1 so far.. I have tac mag versions and flared magwell.. reload mw..etc)[/i]
I think the only thing that makes it semi-usable is the [b]artifact perk WIND CHILL[/b]
[quote]Rapid [Stasis] Stasis weapon precision hits grant you a stack of Frost Armor. Rapid precision hits from weapons with the Dark Ether Reaper origin trait grant you more stacks of Frost Armor.[/quote]
The issue I think is twofold:
--1. shots feel pretty weak in PVE (will the upcoming buff address this?)
--2. frost armor is not great.. for example void overshield is strong protection but even frost x5 doesn't seem that powerful
Note: I've only tested it a few times at Sorrow's Harbor but nothing is very strong there.. I like my Live Fire with this trait better as it has access to armor piercing rounds.. you shoot from afar with a scout.. and the DR from Frost Armor feels more effective for those glancing blows.
What are your thoughts??... must this roll be buildcrafted into to make good use of it? (not touching stasis warlock class myself...)

1 Replyi got that roll (headstone/rimestealer) and tried it out. and remembered why i hate headstone with a passion. you can proc the headstone ice crystal with a headshot easily. then waste the rest of your mag trying to break said crystal. when it would've just been easier and used less ammo to just shoot the enemies. the only time it's helpful is if you can proc it off a low level enemy while a yellow bar is extremely closeby. but it never seems to work for me. the frost armor doesn't really feel like it does much. i don't use stasis class that much, so i don't really build into it though. i threw it in the vault (just in case). but for bounties requiring stasis, i have just been using an encore/frenzy roll. once you get frenzy proc'd , it's not too bad.
