Basic Math - The Failure of Diablo Melee

[Archon_Wing]

I agree, Frozen is much worse for melee chars....and what makes it worse is that the monsters tend to ABUSE it, so you often get Frozen several consecutive times. It's quite annoying. My first mob on Hell with my barb was a Fire Chains, Frozen, Shielding combo, which took me 3 attempts to defeat.

Frozen is very much abused, though shielding is also very much abused by them.
