Nice.. someone else mentioned this..
My Ice/Spines...
59% S/L Defense, 51% N/E. And if you use Energy Absorption against just one foe, that goes the 66% and 59%
Chilling Embrace is a great taunt Aura, because it adds -Rech, -Spd and -Dmg.
And ALL Your Spine attacks of but especially the AoEs Ripper, Throw Spines, Spine Burst and Quills all have -Spd and -Rech
Also with enough recharge, HoarFrost which is a Dull Pain Clone becomes Perma.
And you still have Hibernate in your back pocket. Hibernate last for 30 seconds and heals and makes you immune to attack (but you cant attack either).
Hibernate on my guy recharges in 40 seconds.. so there isnt too much that could kill me in ten seconds..
AND You can still T4 Barrier which makes it basically perma..
And two Damage Aura also helps keep aggro...
