Okay so out of concept I just created a very nice ice/axe tanker that is currently level 22. I am loving it so far and was hoping to recieve a little help. Anyone played this combo before? Also looking for IO slotting help and information if this build will be capable of ne level of farm? Thank You so much

Don't have a lot of time, but I can offer some hints quickly:

- get the steadfast +Defense IO, when you can afford it. Slot it in Perma or Tough (if you have it).

- build for S/L defense since you already have that. 4 Kinetic Combats will boost you up quite nicely. Since most damage is mixed type (energy+smash, for example), you can really help out just with that boost. You can work on this from fairly early on, mid 20s.

As you can, try to bump up Energy/Negative up. Its harder to do than S/L, but still possible.

Of the rest of the set bonuses, you can try for +regen, +recharge or +acc. I find with Ice's slow resist and a good attack chain, I don't really need +rech on my 50 ice/ice, but it all depends - you may want to get Hoarfrost up more often. Hasten would be a poor man's way to get that up, however.

I like +regen on mine. And some +Acc.

Maybe one of the ice experts will be able to offer more substantial help. Have fun!
