I got one simple question

Is it still possible to get 100% Ice Resistance?

Well...

yes...it would be hard, but not impossible to do.

This depends on how the game handles status effect reduces.

8th degree accessories can be maxed with 20% Ice resistance.

4 accessories x 20% resistance = 80% resistance max (at current stage of game. This might change due to the unlockage of 9th degree accessories)

Also you can use that in combination with Fire Shield series that reduces abnormal effect.
Fire Shield Emperior [Book 4 level 1] at level 68 gives -78 effect reduce.

Ice imbue: [Blook 4 level 3] at level 69 have 158 effect.

Again, whether or not you can achieve 100% depends on the way Silkroad client handles the effect reduce

Case 1: Takes % from accessory first, then the effect reduce by skill second.
Original effect: 158
158 x 20% (reduce 80%, 20% left) = 31.6. Rounded to 32
32 - 78 (abnormal reduce from skill) < 0.
100% ice effect reduce achieved.

Case 2: Takes effect reduce by skill first, then takes % from accessory
Original effect: 158
158 - 78 (abnormal reduce from skill) = 80
85 x 20% (reduce 80%, 20% left) = 16
158 effect reduced to 16.

I know all the way to get it, but isn't it that Fire Shield is in % and not in status effect reduction, I can remember that I saw characters which had about 40% reduction on accessory and 68% on Fire Shield, so thaat gave him 100% reduction and many other players attacked him with Ice Skills for freezing, but it didn't work.

So i thought that they removed that in any way, as it was way too powerful and ice became useless due to this.
