[3.27] The sturdy Ice Nova Templar

This build is inspired by the Svalinn Lazy Nova build, but it has its own twists ... I had a level 99 Templar on standard that was sitting around, actually my second character ever, and I decided to switch it to Ice Nova of Frostbolts in my own way. The build doesn't include popular artifacts like Atziri's Foible Amulet or the Cloack of Defiance Armor, and the general idea is using Armour not Evasion as the main defense besides Svalinn.

PROS:

- Very good Durability -> about 1.3 million eHP
- Can do almost all content

CONS:

- Only decent damage, since Ice Nova was nerfed
- requires Mageblood to really shine

Some feats of this build include ~60k Armour and ~88% Elemental Resists plus the usual Svalinn benefits, the huge spell block @90% and attack block @71%.

I am using the synergy between Gloves, Helm and Boots with armour and energy shield, and the mastery that provides 100% bonus to the defense provided by the body armor. I have a torso that provides 4k armor, and 800+ ES, and having that skill along with determination makes the armour really reach top level.

For the resistances the key is having a Ruby Flask, a Topaz Flask and a Saphire Flask in my Mageblood. They provide +9% to max resistances plus their usual ~80% to all resistances. I am also using a Honored Tattoo of the Makanga which provides +2% to maximum resists.

Most of the rare artifacts are crafted by me ... and they can be improved of course.

I will continue writing the guide, on public, but for now without further delay here is the POB:
