Magicka Warden Ice Knight build?

I was curious if it was smart to run magicka warden with SNS as front bar and destro as back bar. Running it sort of like a mag dk. Really aggressive in your face throwing ice all around. Sounds like a really fun idea to me but idk if it’s even a good idea. If so what sets would be good to run that go along with the theme. This would be for pvp mostly btw. PVE id run it as a tank. Thanks in advance.

    Ice tanks can be fun in PvP, @jam3s4343 ... as long as you have the mindset that it’s a support role (and not a pure DPS role).

    Between two 5-piece sets and a Monster set, there are quite a few set combinations you can choose from, but a new player will generally want the following:

    1- Defensive Sustain Set (usually heavy armor)
    1- Damage Set
    1- Monster Set

    After that, you get to have some fun in picking the sets. ;)

    Some examples of heavy armor might be Torug’s Pact, Fortified Brass, Shacklebreaker, and Kagrenac’s Hope.

    Some examples of frost-enhancing sets might be Ysgramor’s, Elemental Succession, and Icy Conjuror.

    If you want to know what I run, it’s 5-pc Winterborn (includes jewelry), 5-pc Bahraha’s Curse (heavy armor), Asylum Sword & Board, and Master’s Ice Staff.

    I have a Warden Magica tank and he works very well indeed. I've tanked most vet dungeons with him successfully (not used him for trials as I usually heal or dps trials).

    I run sword n shield front bar, destro frost staff back bar. Warden skill set is excellent for tanking.
