Elemental Sundering and Ice Armour

Elemental Sundering: Plunge your Spear into the ground to emit a pulse that Consumes Freeze, Shock and Ignite on a number of nearby enemies, Allies and Corpses. The pulse itself deals no damage, but each Ailment Consumed causes an explosion of the corresponding elemental damage type.

Command: Ice Armour: Command a Skeletal Frost Mage to target a location or Minion and apply Ice Armour to Minions in an area, reducing damage taken from Hits, causing damage to enemies that Hit them, and counting as Frozen for other effects.

I'm trying to combo Elemental Sundering with the Command Ice Armour. Ice Armour gives your minions a shield that makes them count as Frozen. Elemental Sundering should consume the Ice Armour to do damage. Instead, it does nothing.

That's not enough. To consume something you must actually have it.

That's not how it's supposed to work though.
The frost armour counts as frozen, so since it's not only ice armour but also a freeze, it should be consumed.

This isn't really a valid argument, given that the wording on Elemental Sundering is the same as the one for the command on Skeletal Brute, which was literally showcased in the Third Edict Content Reveal used exactly as described by OP:

So we're either dealing with really poor wording on the skills, a bug, or an undocumented balance change, maybe? In any case, it's a bummer for anyone who was excited by this interaction.

It's an even bigger bummer considering it's almost expected to work as the wording will suggest so, that many people already invested time into leveling up a character only to find it doesn't work : (

If it's Ice Armour buff pretending to be freeze (the description seems to imply it), then yes, skills that consume freeze should be able to consume it. If Ice Armour separately gives affected minions "count as frozen" property (my initial thought), then there's nothing to consume. In any case Elemental Sundering and Skeletal Brute's warcry should either both work or not work with this buff, since the wording indicates they use the same mechanic. And we know the warcry is intended to work this way.

On had the same problem at the early beggining of the league and I finally have to play another build.... Very unplaisant.. But I think it's a working problem otherwise it's damn to strong

Still not working.
Please fix for 0.3.1 GGG

Just tested this today, still doesn't work.

Can confirm still not working despitw wording clearly indicating it should.
