To start off, don't play this if you love yourself. It'll most likely ruin your league start. The basic idea is simple. Self ignite with double Mokou's + Unleash FR, which gives you a 1 - 0.5\ chance to ignite yourself, i.e. you'll whiff with a probability of 6%. I will conveniently ignore this fact. With Lethe Shade, Ignites last 8 seconds, so it's basically a steriod that we have to cast once every 8 seconds. To make this kinda worthwhile we need/get a few extra things: 1. Unaffected by ignite. While we hit ourselves only for 10% (40%) of max life per FR cast, everything else also ignit

And chains are more fun anyways. I think the gear should be achievable for most people familiar with endgame by week 1 - week 2. Concretely, I think the only items that cost more than

Most builds don't bother with freezing pinnacle bosses which, on top of the fairly high ailment threshold of 25m, have another 70% less damage taken mod that makes it pretty hard to freeze them. The ailment itself is still fairly useful if you can achieve it as it gives you -70% action speed (relevant thread) against monsters that 'Cannot be fully slowed' (aka most endgame bosses) but the payoff usually wasn't there because you could invest in more damage instead and just kill them faster.
Freezing pinnacle bosses might now be worth considering
