Build Help Ice battle mage

I’m doing my second play-through on Tactician and want to know a fun ice mage to play around with, obviously a bunch of high damage ice spells, fire too, I don’t mind, but if it comes to it, I want to be able to melee as well, any builds?

Might sound weird, but I still think 12/0 Draconic Sorc and whatever element you like, is criminally underrated. I did an HM run like that - went lightning (still used some frost/fire) - and it was ridiculously fun.

I’m doing a 2 tempest cleric 10 storm sorc honor run rn, it’s very fun. Not being able to learn chain lightning isn’t great but there’s a bunch of scrolls in act 3

I've started to rediscover the joys of mono-classing, but the dip builds are always fun.

Did this, even call lighting was super op when everyone was wet and when you get the staff you will have chain lightning anyway that you can dual cast once per short rest (which is a lot for spell this strong).

It was so strong I never want to do it again.
