i will use winterborn and i need to combine it with something else... i was thinking in Impregnable Armor or Shacklebreaker. The thing is that i'm not sure if critic resist in light armor is good or if magicka and stamina pool + regeneration is a better choice... suggestions????

✭✭✭✭✭It depends on how you play. Wards are 'free' Impen so if you are warding well you don't need it.
Some players still run a bit of crit resist. And some use resistances etc to give a bit of protection with wards down. OR you can commit to using wards right and run none. There's a couple of approaches.
As you learn having a bit isn't a bad move. You just need to plan your build around your playstyle and have it synergise.
Impreg is easy to get loads of, and is cheap. And shackle is crafted so to be honest just get both and play / seeXbox One | EU | EP

UndeniablyAVG✭✭✭✭I like to run Necropotence, the max magicka will increase your shields and damage by a good chunk. Just make sure you keep that Netch up 24/7.PS4 EU - Daggerfall Covenant

Ciovala✭✭✭The annulment morph in light armour doesn’t scale? Never looked I guess...Edited by Ciovala on June 25, 2018 9:50AMLooking for a mature and helpful social guild - play PvE, PvP, and like crafting.0 -

You only have 1 warden specific shield, it is max magicka scaled. @teladoyThe annulment morph in light armour doesn’t scale? Never looked I guess...
Annulment is the base skill. Scaling from max magicka.
Dampen get increased size per light armour
Harness refund magicka if hit. @Ciovala

Crystallized shield is actually scaled off of health, 1.5 times to be exact. And it only absorbs projectiles.

People have a wrong concept of the meaning "damage shield". Wardens don't have any damage shield.0 -

Technically, it is a ward that shields against ranged projectiles. So that is something.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭The Iceheart 2-piece comes with a damage shield, @teladoy ... and fits into the theme of your character.
The largest issue with running it is that Wardens are somewhat handicapped in critical strike rating to start with.
If not Iceheart, there are a bunch of other 5-piece sets that proc damage shields.
Or maybe the Frost Staff heavy attack shield or the Psijic shield is enough for you to focus on the rest of your build?
You haven't really told us what kind of PvP content you're doing.

jasales✭✭✭I've got a warden icemage that I love playing.
I started with winterborn and necropotence but I've given those up for the following:
Ysgramor's Brithright - for base boosts and extra damage to cold abilities
Mechanical Acuity - to up those crits and other boosts
Ice-heart - to take advantage of those improved crits
I'm procing ice-heart in every trash fight. I've slotted Northernstorm for extra magicka in both ultimate slots. And because I'm using Shimmering shield I can use my ultimate in every other fight. It is insanely fun.
I'm not certain which attacks are fully taking advantage of Ysgramor's set but it is a noticeable difference from winterborn. Hope you find this helpful.0 -

✭@teladoy hi, again. You want to go ice warden. I have tried it once, with magicka and did not like how it performed, I also have tried with Winterborn which I found to be not so effective.
I been thinking if I would try ice warden now what I would do. And I would probably try health based instead of magicka. This way you will not be penalized for going ice staff. And you will still put out good dmg, be a tank and have good debuffs/buffs for group.
the build: http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Special:EsoBuildData?id=70873
The sets are very much changeable to your liking, since it's bg I would go thuurvokun/skoria instead of shadowrend, but figured you might not like that because of the looks.
You could add for example fasalla/ebon/gloom instead of green pact. Doylemish instead of akaviri.
And skills can be changed around alot. Could go tree ult instead of bear, change the frost cloak to more defensive one etc.
Maybe go vamp.Edited by Yakidafi on June 28, 2018 5:57AMMoons and sands shall be your guide and path.
