With Forest Staff/Lost Staff you can apply the water convert in an area (Baphomet Card doesnt work)
Arctic Explorer and Poring ice cubes will freeze non MVPs (and MVP too sometimes). Frozen enemies will have their element converted to water
"But sir how about tao gunka? we shouldn't freeze it??"
It is very hard to freeze tao gunka (or any mvp) even if you tried it due to Control Immunity. Just deal with the occasional freeze cancelling fallen stone (it very rarely happens)
Some people prefer to run without freeze, so you can test yourself if you prefer to use freeze or not
2. Cooldown Reduction
For faster Frost Misty
Pardon Money/Sins of the Living
Arcane Codex
There are cooldown items for Back slot, but I prefer to use debuff equipment. If you insist on using cooldown back, there are Fate Wheel, Rock n' Roll Cactus, Fluffy Tail Swing, and Fallen Valkyrie's Wings
3. Debuffing/Buffing
Use debuff/buff equipments to boost the damage of Ais!
Armor Card
Alien Soth Card
Garment Card
Fallen Feather Cards with their respective Back Headgear
Do not use this if other party member is using Hammer of Solem
Accessory Card
Liu Maoxing Card
Weapon Card
Soth Card
Owl Baron ★ Card
Owl Duke ★ Card
Mistress the Revenant ★ Card
Revenant Soul (or star) Card
Moonlight Nightmare Card
Head
Use Arctic Explorer if you use freeze build, otherwise use one of these
Nauno Dragon
Crown of Light
Colorful Virtual Screen
Headwear Card
Whitebait Lake Lord ★ Card
Revenant Owl Baron (or star) Card
Alien Zanubia Card
Face
Alchemy Beak
Huge Cat Eye
Meow Wave
Starry Rekenber Monocle
Mouth
Nothing good here, you can use Dreamweave Silk for freeze. I personally use movement speed (Ocean's Attachment)
Back
Chicken Axe
Bubble Shower
Cleaning Robot Cat
Freya's Wings
Thunder Taiko
Soul Music
Tail
If you didn't use Arctic Explorer, then you should use Poring ice cubes for freeze build. Othewise you can use one of these:
Wind Basket
Emerald Assistant - Orwell
My equipments
3. Stat Allocation
The goal is to reach 480 Attack Speed and 0 cast time on Frost Misty. You can put the rest into INT for extra freeze duration, and VIT is good for tankiness.
My stats are for dps AA AM, no need to reset stats as long as you have reached the goal.
4. Runes
Cretacous Barrier Rune for more mobility during White Barrier, can also be useful to res with Leaf of Yggdrasil in a pinch
Flare Protection - Star Rune for extra tankiness
Soul Vortex Rune and Thunder Lightning Rune for extra proc/freeze/debuff
Frost Curse Rune helps to instant cast Stasis
5. Strategy
Just hit together with Ais, it's really simple. You can help to aggro far enemies closer too.
Take the defensive talents. You can view the list here:
In the video it's very easy because we have a good team, no extra utility skill required. If you're struggling a bit then the utility skills might come in handy to deal extra damage or help your team survive.
