You're not the first person to come up with that, but i'm sure you thought you were so i'll give you points for "originality". Let me tell you a short story. Before there was such a thing as an elemental, there was just the fire-breather. People would be excited to get a special infected class, only to rage, due to the fact of not being able to do any damage to people with the fire vest. (Which practically everyone had from the event)

But now you have your elementals, that are able to switch between fire and ice to counter both kinds of vests. However, this vest would make elementals USELESS. When I say useless, I mean that an NPC zombie can do more damage then it. Its like making a vest that makes you immune to boomer goo, or smoker tongues. Maybe if it gives 50% less damage from fire, and you thaw out 50% quicker from ice? That could work I suppose. But the price would need to be 200$. The rank lock is fine.
