Slotting advice requested

Ok, got back to leveling my ice/mace tanker. And remembered why I don't play it too often. My endurance bar bleeds away fast. So thought I'd ask for some slotting advice. But some qualifiers. I'm currently 21 (almost 22). I use IO's, but wont even touch set enhancements usually till around 35, and don't farm so may never have a fully IO'd out character. Heck, my main still only has one set slotted. For the most part I'm happy with how the character preforms. It's just that having an end recovery of 2.08% is kinda harsh when you have a consumption rate of 1.36%.

Currently I am running a respec'd build which doesn't have Hoarfrost yet (that'll be at 22) but otherwise has all Ice Armor powers. I then have Bash, Pulvirize, Jawbreaker, swift, health, and stamina.

My slotting is at the moment:

Frozen Armor: 3 defense, 1 end redux
Chilling Embrace: 1 end redux, 1 blank (ran out of inf while slotting in DO's after respec)
Wet Ice: 1 end redux
Permafrost: 3 dam resist
Icicles: 1 end mod, 2 blank (undecided yet)
Glacial Armor: 3 defense, 1 blank (plan on end redux)

All attacks are 1 acc, 3 damage. I then have a single heal in health as yet, and don't have anything slotted in stamina yet.

So, for using SO or common IO, what would be recommended slotting?

Frozen Armor: 3 defense, 1 end redux - fine
Chilling Embrace: 1 end redux, 1 blank (ran out of inf while slotting in DO's after respec) - an end red would of done
Wet Ice: 1 end redux
Permafrost: 3 dam resist - mistake 1 slot only
Icicles: 1 end mod, 2 blank (undecided yet) - end reds needed here
Glacial Armor: 3 defense, 1 blank (plan on end redux) - k

To be fair, the dam resist in permafrost isn't for the cold resistance. It's to get a bit more fire resistance. That's my biggest weak point as yet (outside of psi), and wanted it to hurt a bit less. You know, with all the fire using mobs I know exist. I've been considering slotting 2 damage resists in frozen armor for the same reason. And yes, I know it wont affect cold resistance cause that's over capped.
