Cryomancer - Warden Build PvE - ESO

Optimization Note: This build relies on rhythmic Light Attack weaving between instant-cast abilities. It completely removes the delayed damage of Deep Fissure and ensures you never accidentally taunt a boss, allowing you to seamlessly clear solo story content while instantly flexing into Vet Dungeons.
