I think the purpose of the buff should be to make Mages more useful for team play in pve and Pvp. I'm all in favor of giving Mages freeze back as long as it can't be used to chain freeze. Replace knock back for movement impairment/stun immunity and increase invulnerability time slightly. To me this would be huge buff but nothing's gonna stop you from getting combo'd without your shield. Unless of course you got tank stats.
Worry about mages can chain freeze in pvp, its like when owls are concerned about big-headed sparrows.
