Bow would be great for the reasons listed before me, also lets those longer bow moves less likely to be interrupted if they're frozen/frostbitten.

My old Glaive I had Dual imbue, switched to ice when I couldnt straight tank. It worked wonders. PvE, you definately have an easy time between the imbue and Frost Nova. And for PvP, it would give me the ability to beat someone a bit higher then me that I would otherwise be dead by in a few hits. Also had a job war where I tanked more people then I should of thanks to Ice lol, big fan of it :).

Well at 76+ 95% of the people are immune, but now with 100 cap alot of ice/light s/s nukers will loose fire totally so ice imbue will make his comeback probs : )

choosing cold glaive you want to take advantage of its defense abilities. but you will give up damage (i dont just mean the imbue, but the buff and passive). so if you're going to give this up, you could choose fire bow. just spawn kb arrows if you're short of hp and use other skills if you see better attacking possibilities.
