'''Howlers''' are a variant of the [[Taken]] [[Boomer]] that allows wielders to use the power of [[Stasis]]. | '''Howlers''' (also known as '''Stasis Boomers'''<ref> https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/article/50599</ref>) are a variant of the [[Taken]] [[Boomer]] that allows wielders to use the power of [[Stasis]]. | ||
==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
Howlers look similar to Taken Boomers, but their corrupted starfire cores have seemingly been replaced with Stasis cores, causing the weapons to grow frozen spikes along its barrel's length. Howlers are rare weapons, usually found in the hands of high ranking [[Taken Acolyte]]s and [[Taken Knight]]s. [[Overload Taken Hobgoblin]]s can also wield the weapon. | |||
The | The Howler has a slow rate of fire, damage and travel time, but its strength lies in its crowd control capabilities. A Howler's projectile leaves a slowing field on its impact point, which can severely hamper a [[Guardian]]'s movement capabilities. Those foolish enough to remain in the field will find themselves quickly frozen, and are at the mercy of the additional abilities of the wielder, as well as any of its allies' weapons. | ||
