Icefall mantle is an excellent concept. Could use a buff though.

Let me preface this by stating that it only needs a VERY SLIGHT buff in PvP. I know how easily that could become the next OEM and we all don’t want that. Anyways, the biggest thing this exotic needs is a way to cancel the effect of the exotic, because otherwise you’d have to wait 20 seconds to do a jump puzzle in PvE or become a sitting duck in PvP even if you had only a sliver of shield left. There’s also the issue of its health in PvE. Granted, it works phenomenally in On-Level content, but any sort of pinnacle level activity with modifiers still relegates you to using it for peek shooting (which you’d still be doing [i]without[/i] the exotic, making it pointless to use instead of Citan’s ramparts) And don’t forget that in such activities you have to be constantly moving or you die extremely quickly, so this exotic is practically a death sentence used in the opening (when normally a barricade would save you). Another thing this exotic could use is some defense against Stasis. You’re already moving like you’re slowed, making Slow itself practically freeze you and allowing people to EASILY freeze you. So perhaps it could have a side-effect that breaks you out of and makes you immune to freeze and slow. The time breaking out of it would generally be the same since you still have to go through an animation, I imagine this would actually relieve some of the frustration around freezing in crucible by providing a hard counter to it. So, in summary: -Needs a way to cancel the effect early so that you aren’t stuck walking everywhere for the next 20 seconds -Needs a [i][b]very slight[/b][/i] health bump in PvP and a substantially larger health bump (or damage resist) in PvE to make it usable in pinnacle content - Could use some more bonus functions such as breaking out of freeze and Slow. Thank you
