Build Request : Frost Crit Flicker

Greetings.

(I've made a companion post to this one over here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PathOfExileBuilds/comments/wptp0a/build_request_frost_crit_flicker/)

I'm looking for a frost crit based Flicker-Strike build to run for 3.19. I'm sorry if this comes across as rambly. Please ask if anything needs clarifying.

Unfortunately, as I'm disabled, a great number of builds are unsuitable for me, and I often have to modify (and usually gimp) them to make them playable, which is one of the reasons I haven't played PoE in a while. My boyfriend loves the game, and I'd love to get back into the game this league, so I wanted to see if anyone would be willing to put together a flicker build optimised for my needs, rather than me having to hackily modify one.

I struggle a great deal with managing a lot of active tasks - I can reliably manage a main skill, on demand healing, and an occasional buff-cast before bossfights, but active buffs that run out on a timer (like blood rage) or a flask piano are just completely beyond me. (I'm so disappointed that they made Mageblood such a difficult item to get, it would help me so much T_T)

What I really need is a build that lets me focus entirely on the flicker and supporting it with a range of passive buffs/auras, with a reliable and uncomplicated way of maintaining the frenzy charges so I don't stall out.


My boyfriend pointed Devon's Blooming Flicker (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2874747) to me, and the Terminus Est + Raider combination seems excellent, but it's dated for last league, and is a physical build, rather than cold.

I'd specifically like a cold crit based build, because the last time I ran a build like it, it's the most fun I've ever had in PoE, and with the new changes to Hrimsorrow giving an easy way to get 100% frost conversion, it seems like an excellent pairing to this build.

Terminus Est seems like a good choice for a build like this, since it's a strong crit blade that generates frenzy charges, and raider seems like a good choice because of all the bonuses it gets to frenzy charges, but I'm not dead set on either of them, only on it being a Frost-Crit based flicker that lets me shatter packs, and hopefully freezelock a few bosses.


I know a build that doesn't rely on a flask piano or extra active casts is going to be inferior to one that does, but my hope is that by building a build around that concept from the ground up, instead of badly modifying an existing build, I can improve my chances of getting something at least half decent.

Thank you for reading this far, and any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
