Hint for Ice Devils: Don't use items that grant Stoneskin without thinking very carefully about the potential drawbacks.

What are the potential drawbacks?

Would using invunerability on them have the same sort of drawbacks?

In one game I am playing, I lucked into a robe of invunerability, so I just threw it on an ice devil. Would it be better placed on another blood summon SC/thug?

he's referring to the side effect of stoneskin - knocking down the cold invuln. And with a chill effect you'd be nuking yourseflf.

Now.. if they only had maintenance...

It would be better on an arch devil or heliophagus, if your ice devils are fighting in cold. If they're not then it is at least reasonable.

The ice devil with the hell sword and the one with the frost brand can probably be left with their base weapon.
