I normally dont involve myself with posts like this but .....Why would you even make a comment like this...Its not like knowing your class and how to play is difficult or something to be proud of ?
Let Ice Golems come to you?
So two options here, switch instances (easiest) or plan your position carefully. Sure, someone who is ranging doesn't have to move as much but that doesn't mean that GWF's are useless here. If you have specced Iron Vanguard and are using Threatening Rush it works well enough and saves you from wasting stamina to close.
Are they exactly like the ice golems in FH/Icespire? My GWF has never had any trouble sprinting out of their AoE. Good grief.

You should know by know that events are designed to account for level disparity.
In any case, I'm sure you're happy with your TRs single target damage.
Everything has pros and cons.
No, I haven't tried to play there.
However, I have played melee characters in CoX, and they slipped around in icy areas as well, putting them at some slight disadvantage over ranged characters during their winter event.
It's still about the pros and cons of the classes, in regards to terrain in this case. Ranged types have the pro of being able to attack well from range and thus avoid the ice, while melee characters have the con of having to contend with it.
In closed in areas, in close quarters, melee characters may well have advantage over ranged ones, generally being more sturdy and not having to close to their targets.
Not everything is going to be equally suited to all classes all the time.
Considering how often we get was a topics like this about how it's simply impossible for melee classes to work in the game I'd say the consensus is that someone that does make a melee class work probably does have something to be proud of because it's clearly a hard thing to do. You can't defend the idea that melee is hard and then say making it work is easy.
they are a bit different, and its not the mobs its ice - ur accelerate really slowly and stop slowly

For my destroyer swordmaster, it's flourish that does the most help. And mighty leap.
If you can't guess what's helping me, it's movement abilities. Especially targeted moving abilities, which aren't penalized by starting and stopping.
Lastly: why would you avoid AOE? Your a GWF, for heaven's sake, not a CW. Take it on the chin like a real man and let your regen or pots do the rest.

GWFs have the tools, just gotta use them
except the ice run effect makes it so you cant run out - basically running has a 3 second delay and switching directions has a 1-2 second delay
You are correct in that the slippage on the ice was a challenge for the melee classes but my GF and TR were able to hold their own on one of the snow banks and their GS sure isn't optimized .

Heaven forbid an event that isn't geared solely towards melee. Get the pitchforks!
and I stand on the snow to meet them. If it gets messy, I skate to another snow
spot. That help at all?
I tend to get mashed by the rimes throws, but I think everyone does.
Tend to avoid them.
