I have been slowly farming up div to buy a Fulcrum and it has been super slow going. I finally got enough div, but now I am second guessing whether or not the Fulcrum is worth it.

Right now, I am using Mokou's Embrace with the corruption that poison cannot be inflicted on me. With that I have a 3-link with CWS, Lifetap and Forbidden rite, with a 100+ chance to ignite myself. It's my little "poor man's Fulcrum" setup.

I also have the gloves that spread ignites (POB at the bottom), and I am mopping up maps just as the Fulcrum builds do on the videos (albeit not as juiced because I can't afford that kind of juicing).

From what I can gather, the Fulcrum makes it easier to cause and spread ignites to enemies, but in the case of MF'ing on maps... is that necessary? I was able to clear a 30 wave Simulacrum with this build even (despite needing to character switch to kill Krosis........), so I am not sure the damage is really the issue. Or is it mostly for maps that are EXTRA juiced?

Chaos shows -1, but right now its at 76% with no flask active... not sure why it shows that.
