Amidst of all the negativity, I gotta say.

That Bungie cooked with stasis exotics and artifact mods, i'm having more fun than I anticipated and I haven't unlocked the juicy stuff yet in the artifact.

Also shotout to Icefall Mantle if you haven't tried yet, it's fantastic and goated exotic that fits well into either prismatic or stasis, I don't think it will be quite the meta yet, but the free 8x frost armor stacks it's a nice emergency button if you're in a thought spot.
