So I was looking at the different armor sets and I noticed that Ice Queen mail has over two bars of Piercing defense more than Skolver Coat. It trades the Sword damage bonus for a less useful stun resistance, but if the extra defense allows you to survive an extra hit or two, it might be worth it. I was wondering if anyone has tried using Ice Queen in Lockdown with any success?

I currently play T2 LD with a Twisted Snarble Barb, Dusker Cap, and Quicksilver Mail (mostly because I don't feel like investing in an extra Dusker Coat), and I don't miss the extra low damage bonus too much, but I dunno if the extra piercing defense on Quicksilver actually allows me to survive an extra hit. How much of a difference does the med damage bonus on Skolver make? I figure the Royal Jelly mail doesn't provide enough Piercing defense to make up for the loss of damage, but it seems like Ice Queen might.
