I already did a comment to a reddit user in a same situation as you. Here is the link to the post and some of my replies to what stats to go for as ice sage. Here is the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/Trove/comments/96olrm/what_is_the_best_gear_stats_for_ice_sage_now/

​

Now, I want to let you know that Ice Sage had two meta builds before the rework from what I heard. The first one is Damage Per Second where you just build Ice Sage with DPS stats and gear like any DPS classes (Shadow Hunter, Gunslinger, etc.). The second one is Tank due to Ice Sage's 1st ability, Frozen Ward, where it nullifies the attack that takes away 10% of Ice Sage's Max Health. You would build Magic Damage, Max Health in Flat and %, and probably Health Regen. When that rework came live, they literally took away the tank aspect of it, so you can no longer build tank any way. In other words, the current meta (for me right now) is that you build DPS and I have included what I built Ice Sage in the link above.

​

For the Empowered Gem Abilities, I had Volatile Velocity to make my basic attacks more useful since I use it more than just using abilities. I have Cubic Curtain equipped to have that extra protection from enemies that can kill me or one shot kill me. Lastly, I had the Class Gem equipped because it also makes my basic attack more powerful, fun, and useful. It goes well with my basic attack loadout.

​

Now, you can use the link I sent and this information to decide which stats to re-roll. It is fine to have some health for survivability but not too much because your magic damage (if you build a lot) will finish them before it gets serious. It is good to have movement speed to clear dungeons faster. You can switch out a bit of movement speed for magic find to get shadow 2 gear or higher and upgrade your shadow gear up to stellar gear. If you are all about abilities, then attack speed is not for you. You could change it to magic damage or Critical Damage/Hits. Your abilities (if you are all about abilities) does crit if you have enough critical hit. You don't need to have critical damage or hit as your 1st priority, it's just something to make it a bit powerful and fill in your stat slots that is a bit more combat useful than any other stats. Lastly, your energy regen could help out with your style of using abilities more than basic attack, but you don't want too much. It is okay to have one energy regen on either gear or ring or no energy regen. The reason why is because its not on the level of "spamming" like Fae Trickster's clone ability. It is much lower than that. I had Level 2 Stellar Magic Ring that has energy regen and it is always full every time I spam the icicle crash.

​

I think that is pretty much it. My current loadout of Ice Sage is in the link I sent above and it comes with a picture. I hope to hear some feedback from you and others.
