I have an

Ormus robe for added cold skill damage and -enemy res but it’s such low def I don’t stand a chance in level 92 tz

From your posts, it seems you are kinda new-ish to D2? (Sorry if I'm wrong)


I'm not sure if you know how defense works in diablo: defense only reduce the chance for you to be hit (by physical attacks) it DOESN'T reduce the damage you take from each hit. Even with low defense, being a sorceress (mobile and ranged character) + having a frost armor (boosting your def a bit), you should be able to survive with

Ormus.
If anything having more fcr would make you more safe, as you could
