If you want to try different skills, you can try Blizzard for one. It's potentially devastating spell, especially when combined with %enhanced cold damage items. People have been able to use it successfully in 1.09, and in 1.1 it's potential damage is mugh higher then that of FO; but it's harder to aim and use.

Looking at other spells on the cold tree, Ice Blase can reach very high damage at high levels; about 7k or so. Combine it with some of the %enhanced cold damage items, and it can kill some less prepared duelers in 1 blast. You would have to ignore Glacial spike synergy, since it only increases the freeze duration.

Moving to fire tree, another spell to consider is Fireball - while hard to aim and use, it can with proper items reach 16k damage, or 400 pvp damage with max fire resists.

As was mentioned, Hydra is a good spell as well.

Another spell that I see has potential in 1.1 is lightning, since it's now affected by cast rate, and is able to get 5 to 32k damage, about the same as the fireball.

On the defensive side, improved Energy shield (higher %) with telekinesis as it's synergy (less mana per point of damage) can provide you astonishing survaivability.

As for putting a point into TS, it's not a bad idea. You can even put a point into the mastery as well, and let +skill items give you at least some damage; so if someone recognizes that your TS level is low, they won't be able to just take off all lighting resists and ignore it.
