Destiny 2 Stasis Weapons: Tier List & Exotics

When Beyond Light launched, the only Stasis weapons available were Cryosthesia 77K and Salvation’s Grip, two lackluster Exotics. But ever since, each new Season/Episode comes with several new Stasis weapons. Some of them are quite strong, too, arguably among the best weapons in D2.

This guide covers all the available Stasis weapons, including Legendaries and Exotics.

Update based on Episode 3: Heresy.

Best Stasis Weapons (Episode 3)

This Tier list features the best Exotic and Legendary Stasis Weapons right now:

Item	Weapons	Type	Archetype	Ammo?	Element?	Requirements	In loot pool?	Rank	Source	Available?	Tier Rank	Source ❘ DLC	Final Verdict	Released	Perks	Best of?
Conditional Finality	Conditional Finality Shotgun	Shotgun	Exotic	Special	Stasis	Lightfall	Yes	S › Best	Root of Nightmares Raid		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE + PvP	Root of Nightmares Raid Lightfall	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Exotic Exotic Perk: "Dual barrels split into Stasis and Solar damage. Landing nearly all Stasis pellets will freeze targets; landing nearly all Solar pellets will ignite targets." ► Conditional Finality might not be as 'must-have' as it was when it launched, but it remains an incredibly potent option in both PvE and PvP. Being able to waste majors in PvE and Supers in PvP, Conditional is still arguably the best Shotgun in the game.	Season 20	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Exotic Exotic Perk: "Dual barrels split into Stasis and Solar damage. Landing nearly all Stasis pellets will freeze targets; landing nearly all Solar pellets will ignite targets."	Top-tier
Critical Anomaly	Critical Anomaly Sniper Rifle	Sniper Rifle	Aggressive	Special	Stasis	The Final Shape	Yes	S › Best	Salvation's Edge Raid		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE + PvP	Salvation's Edge Raid The Final Shape	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Rewind Rounds or Chill Clip + Firing Line or Triple Tap PvP God Roll: Quickdraw or Opening Shot + Snapshot Sights or Explosive Payload ► Snipers are in a very good place, and the rolls on Critical Anomaly set it above most others. Not only can it roll with Rewind Rounds and Triple Tap, but it’s the first sniper to roll with Chill Clip. Being able to apply Slow or Freeze from a great distance will always come in handy as the difficulty rises.	The Final Shape	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Rewind Rounds or Chill Clip + Firing Line or Triple Tap PvP God Roll: Quickdraw or Opening Shot + Snapshot Sights or Explosive Payload	Top-tier
Deliverance	Deliverance Fusion Rifle	Fusion Rifle	Precision	Special	Stasis	The Witch Queen	Yes	S › Best	Vow of the Disciple Raid		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE	Vow of the Disciple Raid Witch Queen	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Precision PvE God Rolls: Demolitionist (also good: Perpetual Motion) + Chill Klip ► With Chill Clip having more utility than ever, Deliverance is now an S tier weapon. Not only does it deal with all champion types, but being craftable means that you are essentially guaranteed to get a god roll. It's also one of two fusions to roll with Demolitionist, perfect for Osmiomancy builds!	Season 16	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Precision PvE God Rolls: Demolitionist (also good: Perpetual Motion) + Chill Klip	Top-tier
Riptide	Riptide Fusion Rifle	Fusion Rifle	Rapid-Fire	Special	Stasis	Free-to-Play	Yes	S › Best	Playlist: Crucible		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE	Playlist: Crucible Free-to-Play	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvE God Roll: Auto-Loading Holster (also good: Compulsive Reloader) + Chill Clip ► Thanks to Crucible focusing and Chill Clip's ability to combat all champions, Riptide is not only a must-have weapon; it's also extremely easy to get. Riptide currently dominates the PvE meta, and TTK changes to Rapid-Fire fusions mean this could be a welcome addition to a PvP loadout.	Season 17	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvE God Roll: Auto-Loading Holster (also good: Compulsive Reloader) + Chill Clip	Top-tier
Cold Comfort	Cold Comfort Rocket Launcher	Rocket Launcher	Aggressive	Heavy	Stasis	Lightfall Dungeon Key	Yes	S › Best	Ghost of the Deep Dungeon		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE	Ghost of the Deep Dungeon Lightfall Dungeon Key	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Heavy | Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Envious Assassin (also good: Tracking Module) + Bait and Switch (also good: Explosive Light) ► With a host of absurd perks, a strong frame, and a top-tier Origin Trait, Cold Comfort is a strong pick for anything PvE. Its inability to be crafted does make it annoying to farm, but this rocket sees little competition in the current sandbox, making it a must-have.	Season 21	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Heavy | Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Envious Assassin (also good: Tracking Module) + Bait and Switch (also good: Explosive Light)	Top-tier
The Slammer	The Slammer Sword	Sword	Vortex	Heavy	Stasis	Free-to-Play	Yes	S › Best	Nightfall: The Ordeals		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE	Nightfall: The Ordeals Free-to-Play	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Heavy | Archetype: Vortex PvE God Roll: Eager Edge + Cold Steel ► The Slammer is one of the best Vortex Frame Swords currently available. The mere presence of Cold Steel and Eager Edge makes it incredibly unique but also one of the best utility-based Swords in the game.	Season 23	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Heavy | Archetype: Vortex PvE God Roll: Eager Edge + Cold Steel	Top-tier
Liturgy	Liturgy Grenade Launcher	Grenade Launcher	Double Fire	Special	Stasis	Episode 2: Revenant	Yes	S › Best	Revenant Activities		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE	Revenant Activities Episode 2: Revenant	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Double Fire PvE God Roll: Envious Arsenal (also good: Rimestealer) + Chill Clip (also good: Chain Reaction)	Episode 2	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Double Fire PvE God Roll: Envious Arsenal (also good: Rimestealer) + Chill Clip (also good: Chain Reaction)	Top-tier
Rake Angle	Rake Angle Glaive	Glaive	Aggressive	Special	Stasis	Free-to-Play	Yes	S › Best	Nightfall: The Ordeals		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE	Nightfall: The Ordeals Free-to-Play	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Replenishing Aegis + Chill Clip or Close to Melee ► One of the best glaives currently available, Rake Angle is an outstanding choice for those looking to dip their toes into the weapon type. Of course, glaives are still yet to see a season where they're meta, but giving this one a try isn't a bad idea.	Episode 2	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Replenishing Aegis + Chill Clip or Close to Melee	Top-tier
Tinasha's Mastery	Tinasha's Mastery Sidearm	Sidearm	Rocket-Assisted	Special	Stasis	Free-to-Play	Yes	S › Best	Iron Banner		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE	Iron Banner Free-to-Play	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Rocket-Assisted PvE God Roll: Air Trigger (also good: Loose Change) + Chill Clip (also good: Desperate Measures) ► Like all Rocket Sidearm, this weapon performs extremely well in PvE. On top of that, as a Stasis weapon, it features the coveted Chill Clip perk. Also, it is the only Rocket Sidearm with the Air Trigger perk, which grants a Reload Speed buff while airborne and a free Reserve mod. Overall, it is best to ignore this weapon for PvP.	Episode 2	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Rocket-Assisted PvE God Roll: Air Trigger (also good: Loose Change) + Chill Clip (also good: Desperate Measures)	Top-tier
VS Chill Inhibitor	VS Chill Inhibitor Grenade Launcher	Grenade Launcher	Rapid-Fire	Heavy	Stasis	The Final Shape Dungeon Key	Yes	S › Best	Vesper's Host Dungeon		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvE	Vesper's Host Dungeon The Final Shape Dungeon Key	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Heavy | Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvE God Roll: Envious Arsenal (also good: Demolitionist) + Bait and Switch ► A gun so good, Bungie accidentally made the god roll almost impossible to get. VS Chill Inhibitor rolls with a devestating combo of Envious Arsenal and Bait and Switch, both of which activate off of the same conditions, and makes for a solid DPS weapon.	Episode 2	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Heavy | Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvE God Roll: Envious Arsenal (also good: Demolitionist) + Bait and Switch	Top-tier
Burden of Guilt	Burden of Guilt Fusion Rifle	Fusion Rifle	Adaptive	Special	Stasis	The Final Shape	Yes	S › Best	Trials of Osiris		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvP	Trials of Osiris The Final Shape	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Adaptive PvP God Roll: Killing Wind + High-Impact Reserves (also good: High-Impact Reserves) ► Burden of Guilt is proof that adaptive fusions are the rising stars of PvP. Here since Haunted, Burden has fought off all the nerfs and somehow taken them as buffs, now standing neck and neck with precisions and even some high-impacts for one burst ranges.	Season 17	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Adaptive PvP God Roll: Killing Wind + High-Impact Reserves (also good: High-Impact Reserves)	Top-tier
Deadlock	Deadlock Shotgun	Shotgun	Precision	Special	Stasis	Free-to-Play	Yes	S › Best	Crucible Competitive		Best ❘ S Excels in: PvP	Crucible Competitive Free-to-Play	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Precision PvP God Roll: Threat Detector or Lone Wolf + Closing Time (also good: Opening Shot) ► Deadlock is commonly agreed to be the strongest PvP Shotgun in the game. It is Kinetic, so it allows you to use weapons like Igneous Hammer. The Precision Frame archetype and perks like Threat Detector, Lone Wolf, and Closing Time, as well as stocks to choose from make Deadlock incredibly strong.	Episode 2	Slot: Stasis | Ammo: Special | Archetype: Precision PvP God Roll: Threat Detector or Lone Wolf + Closing Time (also good: Opening Shot)	Top-tier
