Returning player Ice Mage build

ImSoPro

Hello guys I have not played ESO in a year or so and have been off these forums longer than that but I just wanted to share this build I’m having alot of fun with in PVP atm. I was a Warden main until Necro came out then I played magcro and stamcro a bunch and my magcro is still fun simply because I love necromancers in any game but it’s absolute dog water in PvP rn so I went back to see where I left off on my warden PvP build.

Long story short with the piercing cold buff ice wardens are super fun rn and do ridiculous damage so I have combined ysgramors with frostbite and Iceheart. Maelstrom ice staff back bar and I’ve been dominating.

I have on front bar: force pulse, wings, living trellis, artic blast, deep fissure with permafrost ult

Then back bar: blue Betty, lotus blossom, ice fortress, blockade of frost, winters revenge with icy rage ult.

Stupid amount of speed debuffs when blockade, winters revenge and permafrost are all up then the heals combined with the shield buff from the blockade of frost make me fairly tanky in light armor. I run a lot of well fitted also cause the goal of this build is to run circles and roll dodge around and between people while they’re stuck with stacking speed debuffs. Can 1vX also once my ult is up, until then when I’m in that situation I just try to survive, chunk HP with shalks and build ultimate. Too much consistent damage in this build to out heal without eventually running out of mana or stam and then dying.

I do occasionally run into mana problems because I run this on an Imperial. Originally it used to be Nord cause why not? Thematically it makes sense and Nord has extra resistances to help light armor wearers but I went Imperial for 3% skill reduction and bonus HP and stam. Might switch back for the ult regen though. Just wanted to share a build I’m having fun with rn.
