Holy Freeze Pally gear

  Also cold immunity has no effect on holy freeze if I remember correctly, so no need for backup. :D

Not quite. Holy Freeze has a cold damage component now (which is synergized by Resist Cold and, to a lesser extent, Salvation). You will not damage Cold Immunes with that component of the Holy Freeze aura. Therefor, most Holy Freeze Zealots chose to pump another skill as a backup - often Holy Shock is the choice. Do not forget that there are many Physical Immunes in Hell and those which are not out-and-out Physical Immune often have high Physical resist.

Added to that, many Bosses in Hell have dual immunity, so a tertiary form of damage is desirable.

So, while Holy Freeze will slow virtually all monsters down for you, it will not aid in damaging the Cold Immunes.

Query for other Lurkers: I have the nasty but faint recollection that there were actually some monsters in Hell that sped up in the presence of Holy Freeze. Hell Lords in the Halls of Pain/Anguish/Vaught? :unsure:
