I think the best way is to make some sort of a buff that you put on the hero every time he acquires the item and take that buff away when he drops the item. Then, make a trigger, that fires every time this hero is attacked, which will make a dummy unit to cast slow on the attacking unit. I might come up with other ideas but this is a simple one.

Also... in case of hero death, i don't know.. you might just make the item drop-able upon death.

If you make Frost Armor a hero ability and make it's required level above 6, then you can cast it on magic immune units(Pretty sure).

Hope this helps, and give you an idea how to make your item.

About the dropping upon death... that is simple and trigger-less... you just go in the Object editor and there is a field at the Item's Stats - Drops upon Death True/False. You set that True.
