Does the time warp is in MH or OH?

Timewarp is OH,
You dont actually need immolate (im not 100% sure what it does) but for crushing flames, you dont need it.
Another option would be to change OH special to Taunt, remove only 1 Crushing Flames, then only change OH element to fire
.
So 5 items are ice element, the Miasma OffHand is fire…
In this case, DEFO remove that red weapon damage

Legend Immolate Affix: this is only found on Loot. it increases the damage done by Immolate. if you have Crushing Flames, CF Set Bonus, and one or more Legend Immolate, your Immolate damage would be huge. something like Fire DoT x 6 (Immolate + CF Set Bonus, I think it adds, not multiply) x 2.25 (CF Immolate boost) x 1.5 (one Legend Immolate) = Fire DoT x ~21.5 damage a second for 4 seconds. if Set bonus is multiplicative you would get Immolate damage around Fire DoT x33.25 damage a second for 4 seconds. with Crushing Flames getting enemy HP down to 25%, this is a good way to get rid of the last enemy 25% HP if you go all Fire Build.
Timewarp: goes on OH. there is also a Legend Proc Timewarp +25%.
in order of best to worst:
Weaken ( Crystal +90% or better. +100% or higher takes up 2 or more spaces, but the damage is worth it)
Weaken & Effectiveness (more damage than just Weaken, but can take up more space, which might cost you more damage from another source)
Ignore Resist no monster resists, but no effective damage either. only takes up one space.
Weaken (+60%) good for beginners and still better than Effectiveness.
Effectiveness this is actually good against most monsters, but takes a hit in damage when against the proper Greatly Resist Element, and does no damage against monsters with the proper Element Immune.

So weaken and effectiveness is the best combo? Or just weaken but effectiveness and weaken take up more slot.
Weaken affix lang tol, it produces more damage than Ignore Resist and Effective Mythic. They have a same effect to an enemy. but it will cost you more slots

@Berot that is the Epic Elemental Crit for Fire is Immolate. it gives your Fire Weapons a chance to do +100% of your Fire DoT as Immolate Damage every second for 4 seconds. the Legend Immolate increases your Immolate damage by +50%, and can’t be rolled by Ruby. I think 2 of the Crushing Flames Items have it for +100% to your Immolate Damage. Fire DoT is 40% of your Fire Attack in Damage. Immolate would be 80% of your Fire Attack in damage. with 2 Legend Immolate, your Immolate would be 160% of your Fire Attack in Immolate damage every second for 4 seconds.
one Crystal Weaken & one Epic Weaken is +120% for every attack being Weakened. one space for Effective Mythic. that is 3 spaces to have Weaken damage on top of every elemental attack being Effective for +25% damage. this is a lot of damage for 3 spaces. honestly, I think going 3 spaces for Weaken would be better if you have a 2 Element Build or Prismatic/Ascendant Build. the 2 Weaken & Effective would be better for a single Element Build.
as for space, I have gotten up to +200% Weaken with 3 spaces, but I usually go with +120%. when I don’t have the space, I go with Ignore Resist.
@anon87655529 here are examples of how different they are against Greatly Resist (the more powerful a monster, the higher the chance it has a Greatly Resist against any of your elements). one space for each.
Crystal Weaken +90%: (1 x 0.25) + 0.9 = 0.25 + 0.9 = 90% of your attacks do 1.15x damage. 10% do 0.25x damage.
Ignore Resist: 1 x 1 = 1. your damage isn’t affected by Elemental damage modifiers.
Effective: 1 x 1.25 x 0.25 = 0.3125x damage.
Weaken 90% & Effective: (1 x 1.25 x 0.25) + 0.9 = 0.3125 + 0.9 = 1.2125x damage to 90% of attacks to enemy who is Greatly Resistant to your Attack. 10% of your attacks are 0.3125x damage. this takes up 2 spaces.
against Normal, Magic, & Rare monsters, your chances of running into one with Greatly Resist or Immune are low, unless you are on a Challenge Map with +1 or +2 monster affixes or % of all monsters on map have Elemental Immune or increased Elemental Resistance. Effective would be better than IR or Weaken doing 1.25% damage.
against Epic, Legend, & Mythic Monsters, your chances of running into one with Greatly Resist or Immune to the Element(s) you are using are medium to high. Ignore Resist means no worries of damage lowered from Elemental Resists, but of course, no Effective damage. with Weaken, 90% of your attacks actually do more damage than IR, enough to even have more DPS with 10% of attacks doing that low damage. these are the monsters that Effective can have trouble against.

So you are prefer to weaken and ignore than weaken and effectiveness?

Ignore Resist cancels Weaken & Effectiveness, so it can’t be used with them.
my Builds use Weaken +120% if I have at least 2 spaces to spare, and Ignore Resist if I only have 1 space to spare. even though a Crystal +90% Weaken takes up only one space and is actually better than Ignore Resist, if I can’t have Weaken for every attack, I’ll just lower my standards a little and use IR. now that I think about it, I tend to use IR for single Element Builds & Weaken with Prismatic or Ascendant Builds, so I have never really needed Effective Mythic.
I have only recently, maybe in the last few months, reconsidered using Weaken & Effectiveness together. I have done it before, but I usually don’t have room in my Builds for Effective Mythic. I think I’m going to test Weaken +90% & +120% & Effective Mythic and see if they make me happy or not.

here’s the guide. and he explains really well why Ignore Resist doesn’t work with Weaken or Effective Mythic. one of the Developers helped him with information, so it’s a really good guide.
