Tanking Rage Winterchill last night I was Ice Blocked while main tanking. This was the first time that has ever happened to me. Is this normal?

No, you just lose the ability to dodge block or parry...

So you actually get some rage ^_^

You will keep aggro but are likely to get crushed while frozen making for a large burst of damage

I love it when he ice-bolts me. I am often rage starved in this fight and sometimes stand in Death and Decay for a nice rage bar. Additionally it is far easier for healers to keep me alive than some poor clothie that is one-shotted.

It's not very difficult to heal through if your healers are already spamming you (as they should be), so don't worry about it.

Yes, he absolutely ice blocks the main tank! It has happened to me quite a few times now! I do not wear my pvp trinket however, since I already have a massive amount of healing coming my way, I don't bother.
