How to Manage Elemental Damage in Enotria: The Last Song

BBG News

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent in various RPGs, I can confidently say that managing elemental damage in Enotria: The Last Song has been a refreshing challenge. It’s not just about dealing fire to ice, but also about understanding the intricate relationships between the elements and their corresponding status effects.

In the game Enotria: The Last Song, damage caused by elements may not function as you initially anticipate. Instead, it plays a pivotal role and serves as an introduction to the status effects that significantly impact specific combat situations. Crafting a strategy to capitalize on elemental damage can seem challenging, but don’t fret. Here’s a guide on handling elemental damage in Enotria: The Last Song.

Managing Elemental Damage in Enotria

In the world of Enotria, there are four distinct types of elemental damages: Vis, Malanno, Gratia, and Fatuo. Each one is linked to a specific status effect, while also functioning as traditional elemental harms. Inflicting sufficient Vis damage on a character vulnerable to it not only deals additional damage but also causes the Dizzy status effect.

In the game, not all adversaries will be vulnerable to a specific element; instead, they’ll have a relationship with a particular element. The element can be powerful against some and weak against others. If you’ve played games like Pokémon or Fire Emblem, you’re familiar with this concept. Water beats Fire but loses to Grass. A Sword is effective against an Axe, but a Lance poses a challenge.

In the diagram you see above, the components of Enotria can be understood as a four-part game similar to Rock Paper Scissors. Here’s how they interact: Vis defeats Malanno, which in turn is defeated by Gratia; Gratia then loses to Fatuo, which ultimately gets beaten by Vis. Elements that are not directly connected (Vis and Gratia; Malanno and Fatuo) don’t have any specific advantage or disadvantage over each other.

How to Maximize Elemental Damage in Enotria

In the realm of Enotria, boosting elemental damage isn’t a daunting task. All you need is a means to infuse your weapon with elemental properties and superior stats in that specific element. To achieve this, merely arm yourself with a weapon that deals high damage in your preferred element, and activate the Innovation that imbues your weapon with elemental power upon using the appropriate Mask Line.

For example, let’s say you want to maximize Malanno. You’ll equip a weapon with high Malanno (say, the Silver Wasp). Then you’ll add the Malanno Path Innovation and a fast-loading Mask Line to the fourth slot. Every time you use the fourth slot, you’ll imbue your weapon with Malanno. If possible, you’ll want to increase Status Power. This stat controls the effectiveness of status effects, not elemental damage, but the two are so interconnected that you might as well use them.

Maximizing all Elemental Damage in Enotria

Focusing on just one form of elemental damage might seem straightforward, but opting for versatility brings greater satisfaction. With a multi-character setup, you don’t need to sacrifice your specialized single-element build. Instead, you can enjoy the benefits of both worlds.

A combination I discovered works well for most situations is pairing a highly proficient character in a specific element with a versatile generalist who can handle multiple elements, along with a melee build that doesn’t rely on magic. The generalist should have the Innovations and Mask Lines to infuse their weapon with every element except for the one they specialize in. Ideally, they would carry one weapon that performs decently across all those elements, or even better, two weapons with outstanding ratings.

Make sure to equip some Innovations that make Mask Lines load faster, since that’s how you activate elemental damage. I would suggest you add the State of Harmony Innovation, too, which makes elemental infusions last longer. One last tip: this might sound weird, but I found it useful to write down which Mask Line leads to which elemental damage. You’ll always find which elements beat which on the screen, but you might forget how you activate that element.
