Why should Chilled be converted to Resistance? An application of Chill is far from being equivalent to 2 seconds of Resistance. With that change, it becomes risky to leave an ice field to the ground, which could turn into a life safer for any class that can convert boons easily.
The trade-off is wrong! The way it is put on, any Elementalist who will cast Frozen Ground will have to think it way too much before casting it: what if the cooldown on this Engineer’s Transmute pops up during that 5 second duration of the Ice Field? —-> Should I cast it, and risk giving the Engineer a life saving buff?
Chill was alright when it gave swiftness. Honestly, I would not even allow a Warrior to use Sigil of Hydromancy in my team because it has a chance to give Resistance.
