I do believe the public opinion on the IV change is to stop the DR from going immune too quickly. I wish I'd rolled troll now so much - Beserking then IV for constant quick spells, or both at once for instant mayhem. Stupid pretty boy blood elf...

*scratches head*
If you want Icy Veins to be more viable in group PVE, raiding especially, why do you even care about how much extra chance to freeze the target it has?
Unless they decide to finally somehow change freeze effects so that they can only be broken by a crit from the mage who triggered them (or even just by a crit from any frost mage), they'll fall off far too quickly to be of much use in raids.
Even in a 5-man, my freeze effects usually get broken before I've even cast my next Frostbolt, nevermind Ice Lance. (And given that for maximum DPS in raids you usually want to be spamming your main damage spell, even the "watch the procs like a hawk and cancel Frostbolt to Ice Lance immediately if Frostbite goes up" works only very rarely, and not consistently enough, in my opinion, to be worth interrupting a frostbolt for.)
The PVE point of the talent, I figured, would be the 20% casting time decrease - it's a talented
Mind Quickening Gem
on a shorter cooldown, in essence.
