I would use this even if i could not offset the cold vulnerability. And also I'd start training armour ofc even if it isn't tengu's kinda thing. It has +blink to get away from, if cold using melee opponents get too close. So keep blinking and shoot everything with xbow. I wouldn't switch to bows although I don't know how much investment you have in crossbows or how many bolts you do have. If you have under 30 then reconsider. Unenchanted shortbow's damage starts to get underpowered VERY quickly, so some decent melee weapon is a better idea than bows (if you got one).
Just a minor investment in Evo will make that +blink better. Just watch out for Fannar and centaurs with freezing ammo/brand.
If you get killed by a wand of cold, that's just awful luck.
Edit: Jesus christ this was an AIR ELEMENTALIST who gets -2 STR from this thing.. I think your STR will lead into some nasty attack penalties. AC upgrade is so significant that I'd probably still do it but you'd better hear the guys who are excellent with numbers. Any numbermen there online? Help the guy.

Ugh.
That is one of the few -slay items I would consider wearing in some situations, like if you had a slay +4 or more ring...
