From what I heard, the ecsro's snow shield its based on IM's dmg absorption scroll, they will just change the %, which is not that hard.
I have some screens(you can doubt that, they are real, me either know if its fake or not)

They are from someone working with ocean some time ago.
So, my point is that, if they add a snow sheild like this, pvp wont change a lil bit =) Maybe some of you already noticed, that this kind of snow shield its not working corretcly, mean its totally fucked up^^
Snow Shield its really complicated skill, its reducing taken dmg by consuming corresponding amount of MP. Basically its like: you get hit 10k without snow, and with 50% snow, you lose 5k hp and 5k mp. But everyone knows it.
The snow shield that they are going to add at ecsro, dont consume mp. Str's can go 90/90/70/50 and they will be really immortal in 1v1 pvp.
