Multi-tree builds don't really work well in 1.10, especially in HC since you need the synergies to be able to damage enemies in hell. If you want to multi, you're going to need to really be careful with skill points. I'd max Oak, Grizzly, Hurricane, and Twister, and put spare points into Twister for the synergy. Arctic Blast doesn't co-synergy with Twister, so it's not a very viable option if you want both to be able to deal damage. To be honest, I'd recommend using Grizzly as a 1 point skill and maxing Cyclone Armor instead for it's synergy to Tornado and Hurricane.
If you want to use Arctic Blast as your main skill, then you're going to need to max both its synergies for the damage, and you're going to need a Holy Freeze merc (unless you're rich, in which case just get the guy a Doom weapon). You're also going to need to not travel alone. Find someone else to take care of cold immunes that you can travel with.
As for equipment... Dark Clan Crusher is good (and cheap), Jalal's Mane, Skin of the Vipermagi (or a 'Stealth' if you can't find/get one), Sig's shield or an 'Ancient's Pledge'/3 diamond shield will all work fine.
