I'd dump Ice Sword for Hasten, then improve the dam buffs, have a single end slot in the slick, rack up the bonuses lost from what was in Ice Sword elsewhere if needed. 2 heals in Health, that in hp/s I'd live without so thats 2 slots elsewhere.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
Actually, I had enough surplus S/L defense I was able to make those changes without picking up any additional bonus. That seems to be a good improvement to my ST attack chain and will also give Fiery Embrace a little more uptime. I also noticed that my melee and ranged defenses are both at 25.7% now, so that should help with any incoming Psi damage. It's not great, but it's something.

This is my first attempt at a level 50 build for my Fire/Ice Tank. I'm a little concerned that there may not be enough accuracy and that Consume might be underslotted. It'd also be nice to squeeze in some additional defense and resistance to Psionic since that damage type seems to be on the rise in high level content. More HP would also be nice, since there isn't currently much difference between the proposed Tanker build and my main which is a /Invuln Scrapper. Anyway, advice and improvements are welcome
