There are a few types that I categorize as Elements but they are just a way I classify enemies,
they are also all primarily in Future Riftania, except the occasional Drone.

– Robotic

that this Element takes from other Elements, their absorbtion, and any other traits that I feel should be listed here, such as Immunities!

This section is to make detailed notes on how the Elemental Weather effects work!

These last 5 turns each once cast!

Once cast onto the battlefield, any other weather effects after the first one will not count, until the turns have expired!

Primarily to obtain these you should go through the optional Elemental Dungeons!

This is also how to obtain Elemental Subclasses! (More in detail below)

Wind: Rifthaven Dungeon

Subclass: Zephyrkin

Water: Oceanic Dungeon

Subclass: Oceankin

Earth: Desert Fortress Dungeon

Subclass: Stonekin

Fire: Fire Mouth Mines

Subclass: Scorchkin

Ice: Frost Edge Dungeon

Subclass: Frostkin

Thunder: Zalasian Dungeon

Subclass: Statickin

Darkness: Darkness Dungeon (Adventurer’s Guild)

Subclass: Demonkin

Light: Light Dungeon (Adventurer’s Guild)

Subclass: Brightkin

Tier 4 Elemental Spells: Omni Dungeon (Adventurer’s Guild)

Elemental Subclasses!:

This is how you obtain a majority of the elemental spells and gear! A lot of the extra elemental skills come specifically from Subclassing into an Elemental Kin Subclass, which are also obtained from these Dungeon Bosses!

For instance, if you obtain a Zephyrkin Tablet, from the Sky Watcher, you can bring it into the basement of a Recruitment Guild and use it on the Altar to permanently unlock Zephyrkin for every single party member from a 1 time use!

This allows you to learn spells like Cyclone, Gale Push, Wind Pierce!

These classes also Provide some resistances and weaknesses as you are in tune with that Element!
