Question On Fire Ice Tank

I have a lvl 50 Fire Ice Tank that I loved for so long but Im not really loving this build ever since issue 10 came out and I lost most of what made this tank fun to play. Im wondering if anyone can tell me if there is a way that I could respec this build to get the most out of it and injoy playing this tank again. Any advice would be wonderful Thanks so much.

What was it that "made it fun to play" that they changed?

I thought the basics of the build were ice patch-taunt-burn patch, but it's my wife's tank and not mine.

I can think of three likely problems (not tough enough, too much endurance usage, or knockback problems) and solutions for each, but if you don't tell me more than "it isn't fun" I can't help.

So you think you're a hero, huh.

to much fear in ice patch and burn lots of knockback more so now than before. A tone of End is used up with having toggles running. Wondering if the new IOs would help solve some of the end usage?

The fear in Burn (there is no fear in Ice Patch) was there before I10. The End usage was the same before that, too. The Knockback from Acrobatics was lessened, but even that should get you through most of the PvE content without getting KBed.

Yes, IOs can help solve the KB and End issues, but there might be simpler ways to solve your problems. Post your build down in the Tanker forums (download Mid's Hero Builder and put together what you have now in it), and we can help make your build better.
