That saves you from total reFardation. You could use Iceheart and take a shower in meteor storm and still live. Set was broken OP, this is a fact. And it's not like they nerfed it by a very large margin, no need to revert anything.
If anything, they could reduce the cooldown to like... 8-9 seconds? 12 seems bit off the rail. That's all.

The plan is to make the baseline function meet the same standards as the Mother Ciannait set, with a 5k shield that lasts up to 6 seconds with a 6 second cooldown. With Iceheart's auxiliary function being focused on preserving the shield to get as much effectiveness out of the damage as possible, and Ciannait around rushing in boldly to break the shield to maximize the Magicka gain, there will be a better parity between the two that helps them both meet our standards as well as feel different from an engagement standpoint.

i wanted a visual aid to help get the point across about how angry players are with the change, a picture speaks a 1000 words and all thats and faster than actually reading the what will be 1000's of comments
I expect Zos is aware that a poll like this would result in what we see here. Considering it completely ignores the reasoning they provided it's value seems diminished.
Their reasoning is flawed, because it could be applied on Mother Ciannait aswell. But somehow, I don't understand how, Mother Ciannait inherited old Icehearth CD and dodged the nerfhammer.
