Warlocks Get 5 Nerfs and 2 Buffs... This Doesn't Add Up

Stasis has BROKEN crucible. Now I guess is just a matter of different perspectives. Do all three classes get to be equally flashy and have abilities that get easy kills? Or do you nerf all three classes to be equally average? Do one or the other, just don't be bias against one subclass. Bungie said: "We have seen a lot of feedback on Stasis since Beyond Light launched last week. We’ve heard it’s a ton of fun to use, but certain aspects of this new subclass can be frustrating to go up against (looking at you, Shadebinder Warlocks). We have a few minor tweaks planned..." My PTSD from Nova Warp is starting to flair up. 5 nerfs is not minor. And Shadebinder is frustrating?? Have you tried getting close to a Shatterdive Hunter? NOT WISE. How about killing a sliding Titan with Cryoclasm? GOOD LUCK. Everything is frustrating and nobody likes getting killed, don't just single out one class. Please calm down my Hunter and Titan friends, I'm not asking to nerf the other classes. I enjoy playing Hunter and Titan. Just some people need to relax with the warlock hate. Minor tweaks are fine, but that's not what happened. Bungie admitted: "Shortly after launch, we put out a hotfix to reel in Stasis a bit. When we made these changes we wanted them to have as much efficacy as possible and that meant using broad strokes to cover a lot of ground." I commend Bungie for being honest about hitting too hard, they were on the right track, just didn't do enough. A ranged melee is not effective when it has little speed. And Warlocks don't have neutral abilities for slowing and shattering like Titans and Hunters do. Warlocks neutral abilities are all based on freezing, freezing is the foundation. Adjusting grenades is one thing, just don't hit Warlock abilities so hard. So, There is room to add 3 more buffs, For example... *Penumbral Blast Melee: Range was nerfed by 43% then later buffed by 37% Penumbral Blast Melee: Projectile speed was nerfed by 20% ... so please buff by 14% Penumbral Blast Melee: Freeze duration was nerfed by 72% ... so please buff by 39% Ice Flare Bolts Aspect: Freeze duration was nerfed by 72% ... so please buff by 39% Thank you.
