Destiny 2’s armory is packed to the gills with dozens of Exotics, totaling over 100 across the three classes, but not every piece is created equal. Each piece of Exotic Armor can undoubtedly be used, but certain options stick out among their peers as top-tier Exotic Armor pieces for your favorite character’s Stasis subclass.

While there are relatively few Exotics designed specifically for Stasis, the potency of your options is far from lacking. While not required, Stasis functions best when you complement your abilities withsome of the most powerful Stasis weapons you’re able to find.
Updated July 04, 2025, by Andrew Scariati:WithBungiestriving to keep each subclass relevant, Stasis received some love in the form of powerful new Exotics to choose from as well as improvements to existing Stasis Exotics, like the Hunter’sMask of Bakris.
Stasis Hunter exotics weren’t the only ones to receive some needed help, with Titans also joining in with their own potent new toy:Cadmus Ridge Lancecapp. If you haven’t tested these fantastic choices, then it’s time you witness their abilities for yourself.
11The Bombardiers
WhileParting Giftonce merely left behind a small explosion after dodging,it now has special effectswhen used with each subclass. For Stasis, you will leave behinda delayed explosive that Slowsyour targets upon detonation.
This extra source of Slow will enhance the effectiveness of yourWinter’s ShroudAspect, which can completely immobilize large crowds when combined with the appropriate Stasis fragments. Keep in mind that the delayed explosive will also deal damage, which can shatter enemies you have already frozen with your last dodge.
10Icefall Mantle
Stasis Titans enjoy being hard to defeat, andIcefall Mantlegloves will make it even harder to take you down. Despite its drawbacks, this Exotic Armor can function asan excellent choice for a PvE buildbut will likely make you an easy target in PvP unless you position yourself carefully.
An excellent combination to test is using your melee to dash into a group of combatants and then activating yourIcefall Mantleto Slow them and clean out the crowd while surviving any attacks using the extra protection from your overshield.
9Eye Of Another World
Eye Of Another Worldis an excellent catch-all Exotic Armor piece thatcan fit in almost any buildbut functions particularly well on Stasis.
Stasis Warlocks rely heavily on their abilities to keep the battlefield under control withBleak Watcherturrets, freezing melee attacks, and more. As such, the increased ability regeneration is appreciated andgrants the equivalent of 30 points in each stat.
So, if you can get each of your abilities to tier seven, thenEye of Another Worldeffectively brings them to tier ten, the maximum.
8Gemini Jester
Bombardiers provide an excellent PvE option, butGemini Jesteris a similar exotic in function that might appeal to you more if you prefer PvP. Disorienting foes provides a split-second advantage in tight quarters that can decide a gunfight.

While these boots are sometimes paired withpowerful Void PvE builds, they can also be an exceptional asset on PvP maps with shared walls and adjacent hallways. You can combineWinter’s Shroudwith these boots, giving your dodge even more utility.
When used in proximity to your enemies, you will Slow, disorient, and remove their radar, rendering a Guardian almost defenseless as you close in to clean up the kill.
7Cadmus Ridge Lancecap
Cadmus Ridge Lancecapoffers a unique approach to combat that focuses on staying safe while inflicting massive damage against both red-bar combatants and boss-level foes. This build will flourish when combined with theWicked ImplementExotic Stasis Scout Rifle, given their excellent synergy.
Stasis certainly lacks defensive strength when compared to Void subclasses, but this potent combination of theCadmus Ridge Lancecapand a suitable Stasis weapon will provide you with plenty of lances to use as you see fit.
6Ballidorse Wrathweavers
Ballidorse Wrathweaversseem specifically designed with PvE in mind, so try these out on your nextrun through a Grandmaster Nightfall.
Warlocks’Winter’s Wrathsuper has greatly underwhelmed in the damage department, but these gloves not only improve your Super’s damage per second (DPS) against single targets but also support your allies to ensure their damage increases.
Overall, this is a superb supportive Stasis Warlock Exotic if you need something extra to help your fireteam in Gambit, Nightfalls, and more.
5Precious Scars
Another generalist Exotic,Precious Scarsis an excellent choice for Stasis Titans who want to take their survivability to the next level. While there are powerful options that will reduce the damage Stasis Titans endure, there are almost no options to regenerate your health – save forPrecious Scars.
These healing effects are incredibly powerful when using a Stasis weapon with your subclass, and while you may find more success in a PvE setting, this helmet shouldn’t be ignored for PvP.
The uniquely intimidating style alone makes this a must-try Stasis Exotic for Destiny fashionistas.
4Renewal Grasps
While these gloves are a far cry from the broken, overpowered mess (or blessing if you’re a Hunter) they were on release,Renewal Graspsstill provide a premier defensive pivot for Stasis Hunters to rely on in PvE.

In PvP, enemies deal20 percent less damagewhile allies receive afive percent damage resistance– a paltry amount in comparison to the original.
For PvE, enemies willdeal 50 percent less damage, and your allies receive25 percent damage resistance.
To feel the full effect of these gloves, stick to PvE and enjoy excellent survivability in your glorified snow globe.
3Hoarfrost-Z
Name a more iconic combination than a Stasis Titan and countless massive ice shards spread across the battlefield. There isn’t one. If you may’t get enough ice in your life thenHoarfrost-Zis the choice for you.
If you want to be extremely annoying in PvP then you’re able to combine this Exotic with other Titans using their regular Barricades to break part of your ice wall, triggering ability regeneration when you collect the Stasis shard.
You will need to coordinate and make sure you build around Stasis Shards and ability regeneration, but this should provide plenty of fun for you and your fellow Titans.
2Mask Of Bakris
Tricky Hunters will love the unique movement capabilities of theMask Of Bakris, as it completely changes your dodge ability while granting bonus damage to select weapons. There’s a reason this helm stands above all other Stasis Hunter Exotics.
Mask of Bakrisprovides great versatility that can be applied in either PvE or PvP, though the Shift ability is particularly useful for disorienting Guardians in the Crucible when you Shift past them. The increased damage will occasionally come in handy against other Guardians, but combatants in PvE are perfect targets to really test the extra damage.
