You don't mention Tuskarr's Vitality which, in my view, is the best option for boot enchants. And I'm not alone in that opinion, even the BiS lists in the 3.3 Compendium use it as it's become damn...

The 2H 0/17/54 spec has a point in Icy Reach as a filler so it can reach down to Chill of the Grave. Is there any reason that this point shouldn't be moved to Icy Touch for a 4% attack speed bonus?...

Get a friendly paladin to give you a Hand of Salvation. Other than that and Soulshatter you are out of luck. Try to save your Soulshatter as long as possible so it gives you more breathing room.
