Shadebinder is a Stasis-based Warlock subclass. It was released in the Beyond Light expansion of Destiny 2.
Overview
Embodying the archetype of a "dark wizard", Warlock Shadebinders use Stasis primarily for instant freezing; stopping their enemies in place in accordance to the Warlock's own perception of stillness and control. Imbued by Stasis energy, the Shadebinder can summon a Stasis staff that fires projectiles which can freeze opponents, immediately rendering them immobile. They also can unleash shockwaves upon any frozen enemies to shatter on command. Warlocks can even summon Stasis turrets for freezing and also generate shards off of defeated frozen enemies.[1]
Lore

I first heard it in the Thrall-carved tunnels on Callisto as I saw Light torn from my friend: a chaotic chime like breaking glass, ringing in the corners of my mind. I ignored it then and burned the Hive vermin with vengeance and fire.
But it returned when Ghaul's wicked contraption gripped the Traveler and the Light fled from my bones: a cold chorus in my ears, a shattered song demanding to be heard. I clung to it then, shivering in the rubble of the Last City. It drowned out the marching of Centurions and focused my will to survive.
It was in the shadow of the Pyramid on Europa that I finally understood. What was noise became a chilling harmony born of dissonance, a structure I could finally grasp. I joined the song, and as my voice perfected the chord my hands gripped a staff of ice—chaos given shape. It sealed my hands in rime, and the song resonated through my flesh. I was its instrument, and it was mine; when we sang "be still" to the world, it would obey.
Abilites
Super
- Winter's Wrath: Summon a powerful Stasis staff. While your super is active:
- Fires Stasis projectiles that freeze targets upon impact.
- Unleash a powerful shockwave that shatters nearby frozen targets.
- Fires Stasis projectiles that freeze targets upon impact.
Grenades
- Glacier Grenade: A grenade that creates walls out of Stasis crystals to block damage and freeze targets; these walls can be shattered for damage.
- Duskfield Grenade: A grenade that shatters on impact, leaving behind a field that slows targets and freezes those who do not leave the volume.
- Coldsnap Grenade: A grenade that freezes on impact and sends another seeker to find and freeze targets.
Melee
- Penumbral Blast: Fires Stasis energy from your staff and freeze opponents in their tracks.
Movement
- Balanced Glide: Glide jump ability provides bonuses to both speed and control.
- Burst Glide: Upgrades Glide for strong speed boosts.
- Controlled Glide: Glide jump ability provides better directional control while in the air.
Class Abilites
- Healing Rift: Conjure a well of Light that continually heals those inside it.
- Empowering Rift: Conjure a well of Light that increases the attack power of those inside it.
Aspects
- Iceflare Bolts (An unseeing yet all-knowing stare fixed eternally to a solitary point. You track your enemies with blade-like precision.): Shattering a frozen target spawns seekers that track and freeze other nearby targets. Fragment Slots (2)
- Frostpulse (A conflux trapped motionless in crystal; infinite possibilities held in tranquil inertia. You unleash the Darkness within, suspending your enemies in harrowing stillness.): Casting your Rift generates a shockwave that freezes nearby combatants. Fragment Slots (2)
- Bleak Watcher (The gaping eye of a machine, forever trapped in a glacial prison. You set loose the unrelenting gaze of death itself upon your foes.): Consume your grenade to deploy a stationary Stasis turret that autonomously attacks enemy combatants. Fragment Slots (2)
- Glacial Harvest (An elusive Vex automaton, a thing of flight and celerity ground to a standstill by the grip of Stasis. A reminder that the crystals catch even the quickest.): Freezing targets creates Stasis shards around the frozen targets. Higher tier combatants create more shards. Fragment Slots (2)
Fragments
- Whisper of Bonds: Defeating frozen targets with weapons grants super energy. -10 Intellect.
- Whisper of Chains: While you are near frozen targets or a friendly Stasis crystal, you take reduced damage from targets. +10 Recovery.

- Whisper of Rending: Primary ammo weapons do increased damage to Stasis crystals and frozen targets.
- Whisper of Rime: Collecting a Stasis shard grants a small amount of overshield, which falls off after 10 seconds. Collecting additional shards adds to the overshield and refreshes the timer.
