Hmm whouldn't it be nice to have a 70:70(naked) balance with Lightning+Cold masteries?
No fire, light imbue with phy def buff and passive and the snow shield that would actually use ALL of the HP/MP at about 50%...
Just thought of this coz you can actually add the light imbue if you want to.

Post you'r ideas, not making one, just throwing my idea.

One of my friends actually tested something like this out....except for a nuker...and made it 85:85 (with gear). It suprisingly works well.

Bow...it should work...since it's been done before. You're crits won't be AS amazing as a pure str, but over all your damage dealth would be higher (on average once again) since int = higher consistent damage whereas str = lower damage but crits = damaging.

i got level 40 fire for the passive and the phy% increas thingy,
passive=4% phy damage+buf 5% phy damage=9% extra phy damage =D

also it gives me fire shield phoenix which reduces by something like 40%, and i've got a bit of the mag defence buff+i got a firewall, which can survive a nuke that hits 10000000000000 :D or a lion shout of 4k damage or more.....but you get the point

imo, it's worth for me to add this 40 levels fire

im maxing lightning and ice and using both imbues,

What makes you think you can use 50% snow shield? I can tell you for a fact that 40% works, but does anyone with similar balances have maxed snow shield?

I agree with Doctor_Mos, though I only have fire to lvl 32, it still gives some physical increase buffs, as well as allowing for ice immunity, for little sp.
