Elemental Wheel
Which element beats which and how much damage it adds or removes — exactly as the game resolves it in v0.8.4.
How it works
Four elements take part in the synergy: Fire, Ice, Electricity and Earth — the Mage's four sets. When your hit carries an element and the target has another, the game compares both and adjusts the hit's damage.
The comparison happens only once, on the initial hit: if your element beats the target's, the hit does more damage; if it loses, it does less; if there's no relationship between them, it stays as is.
| Element | Beats |
|---|---|
| Earth | Lightning |
| Lightning | Ice |
| Ice | Fire |
| Fire | Nothing |
×1.3 if your element beats the target's
×0.7 if your element loses
×1 if there's no relationship
The limits
- The chain isn't circular: Earth beats Electricity, Electricity beats Ice and Ice beats Fire — but Fire doesn't beat anything.
- Only the initial hit: status damage ticks and reflected damage skip the synergy.
- It doesn't stack: at most ±30% per hit, never more.
- Only those four: hits without an element, Poison and Bleed never take part.
