'''Stasis''' is an elemental manifestation of the [[Darkness]] | '''Stasis''' is an elemental manifestation of the [[Darkness]], in an equivalent manner as [[Arc]], [[Solar]] and [[Void]] are elemental manifestations of the [[Light]]. It is related to cold and the concept of the reduction of entropy, and more precisely to the ending of movement on a macroscopic and atomic level; slowing, detaining, and then shattering. In keeping with the Darkness' connection with thoughts and consciousness, it also embodies the concepts of will and control, and to wield and master it requires someone to exercise ultimate authority over both oneself and others, lest destruction run wild.<ref name = "Explain"/> It is first introduced in the expansion ''[[Beyond Light]]'' as the first of Darkness-based [[subclass]]es. | ||

[[Subjugator]]s and Attendants are able to use Stasis attacks that '''slow''' and '''freeze''' targets. | ||
