In our previous edition, we featured the <a href="https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/49482" title target>Warlock Shadebinder</a>. Here, we’re getting to know the Titan Behemoth. </div> <p>—</p> <p>Titan. Smash. Two things that simply go hand in hand. There<br /> are few combat situations in <i>Destiny 2</i> that can’t be solved – or at<br /> least made better – by a quick Titan punch to the face. When <i>Beyond Light</i><br /> is released this November, Guardians who prefer the Titan class will discover a<br /> new subset of Stasis powers that allows them to harness the power of Darkness.<br /> And yes, fisticuffs will be part of it. But it’s not the entire story. </p> <p>As we discussed in our previous edition of this series, each<br /> Stasis subclass will embody a facet of Stasis. Warlock Shadebinders emphasize<br /> freezing enemies and, as you’ll learn more about next week, the Hunter Revenant<br /> is a specialist at slowing the action down. The Titan Behemoth uses Stasis as a<br /> means of both creation <i>and</i> destruction.</p> <div> <img src="https://www.bungie.net/pubassets/pkgs/140/140587/Titan_Stasis_01.jpg?cv=3983621215&av=2694628474"></div> <p>With the Behemoth, we wanted to put an emphasis on the<br /> ability to use Stasis to create crystals that can alter the battle by changing the<br /> very ground beneath your feet. Control the ground, control the fight. As a<br /> result, the Behemoth can use their Stasis abilities defensively – such as<br /> creating crystalline walls to block enemies and gunfire – or offensively, by<br /> using crystals to freeze enemies. </p> <p>The Titan Behemoth can unleash a powerful melee attack known<br /> as the Shiver Strike. Here, the Titan lunges forward, launched by a Stasis<br /> explosion at their feet to propel them towards an enemy. While in mid-air, they<br /> summon a Stasis gauntlet that covers their fist and then slam into their foe,<br /> sending them careening backwards and slowing nearby enemies.</p> <div> <img src="https://www.bungie.net/pubassets/pkgs/140/140587/Titan_Stasis_05.jpg?cv=3983621215&av=2694628474"></div> <p>The Behemoth’s Super, Glacial Quake, begins with the Titan<br /> forming a mighty gauntlet on their fist. They can then slam the gauntlet into the<br /> ground, sending out shockwaves that form Stasis crystals which freeze nearby<br /> enemies. Covered in an armor of Stasis crystals, the Titan temporarily becomes<br /> an unstoppable wrecking machine, able to jump higher, faster, and farther, all<br /> while blasting enemies with greatly increased melee attacks. </p> <div> <img src="https://www.bungie.net/pubassets/pkgs/140/140587/Titan_Stasis_02.jpg?cv=3983621215&av=2694628474"></div> <p>If frozen enemies are the bowling pins, think of the Titan<br /> Behemoth during their Glacial Quake Super as the bowling ball, able to<br /> instantly shatter enemies as they sprint or slide through them. Running amok in<br /> a crowd of bad guys and shattering them like a perfect tenpin strike is a fine<br /> strategy but there’s a degree of subtlety there too, if you want it. For example, you can cancel out of a slide into a massive Stasis-powered<br /> leap, only to cancel <i>that</i> just at the right moment and direct the<br /> Behemoth downward into a devastating slam. So punch if you must, but know that<br /> Stasis has plenty more to offer you, Titan. </p> <div> <img src="https://www.bungie.net/pubassets/pkgs/140/140587/Titan_Stasis_Subclass_abilities_EN.jpg?cv=3983621215&av=2694628474"></div> <div> <img src="https://www.bungie.net/pubassets/pkgs/140/140587/Titan_Stasis_Subclass_aspects_EN.png?cv=3983621215&av=2694628474"></div> <div> <img src="https://www.bungie.net/pubassets/pkgs/140/140587/Titan_Stasis_Subclass_fragments_EN.jpg?cv=3983621215&av=2694628474"></div> <p>Next week, we’ll be going deeper into Stasis with our look<br /> at the third and final subclass, the Hunter Revenant. How do you make the<br /> quickest class even more deadly? By slowing down everything around them, that’s<br /> how! </p> <div>Come back on September 8 to learn more and check out the <a href="https://www.bungie.net/7/en/Destiny/BeyondLight/Stasis" title target>Stasis hub page</a><br /> in the meantime.</div> </div> https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/2020/09/03/stasis-spotlight-titan-behemoth/ |
