The Elemental Attributing System allows you to apply powerful attributes to your weapons to make them stronger, as well as add resistances to your armor. Attributing is done by using El Shards, which come in seven types: Fire, Water, Nature, Wind, Light, Dark, and Mystery. In dungeons, certain enemies can also be enchanted with elemental attributes.  
Elsword, like many other MMOs, has a unique Elemental Enchanting System. In Elsword, elemental stones are known as El Shards, and there are seven types: Fire, Water, Nature, Wind, Light, Dark, and Mystery.


[[Image:HQ Shop Item 130054.png|thumb|El Shard Mystery Solver]]
Attributing weapons grants the ability to inflict [[Status Effects]] while attributing armor adds resistance to the element type.  
El Shards can be found in all maps as a rare drop. It appears as a black crystal on the floor, and it is actually the Mystery El Shard. You can either collect them to get a random element enchanted or refine them by right clicking on them with an ''El Shard Mystery Solver'' (displayed on the right) in your inventory. Helen and all Alchemist NPCs located in any town sell these for 2000 ED.


The estimated probability of yielding a certain el shard from solving an el shard (mystery) is:
The amount of possible enchants relies on the weapon's level. Typically it is two, once weapons are level 40+ or 70+, 3 or 4 elements become available.


=== NA ===
Elemental resistances decreases the chance of receiving the corresponding element's effect as well as reducing its effectiveness. The first armor enchantment grants 75 corresponding resistance, while the second bumps it up to 110, the third bumps it up to 135. The maximum resistance to a certain element is 500, where the element will only have a 20% effect in PvP and no effect in PvE.

Enchanting weapons grants the ability to inflict status effects and gives the weapon a corresponding glow, while enchanting Armor adds resistance to the element type. It is possible to hybrid certain elements, explained later on.<br/>
The amount of possible enchants relies on the weapon's level. Typically it is two, but once weapons are level 40+, 3 elements become available.
 
Having element resistance decreases the chance of the element activating when you are hit by a matching elemental attack, and it also decreases the effects of said element on you(i.e. fire does less damage, dark drains less HP and MP, etc). The first armor enchantment grants 75 corresponding resistance, while the second bumps it up to 110, the third bumps it up to 135. The maximum resistance to a certain element is 500. With a resistance of 500, the element will have no effect on you whatsoever.
Poison full resistance can be useful for a dungeon like [[4-X]] in case the timer is at 0, in which case the player will be able to avoid the auto-poisoning from the time limit. <br>

The number of El Shards required depend on the level of the equipment. Armor enchanting is rather low in comparison to weapons.


The first enchantment on a weapon requires as many El Shards as half the weapon's level. The second enchantment on a weapon requires as many El Shards as 1.5 times the weapon's level. The third enchantment on a weapon requires as many El Shards as 3 times the weapon's level. Weapons of unique rarity add 2 levels to the formula.  
If you ever wish to remove an element, you can do so by opening the attribute window via an alchemist by having one El Shard of any type in your inventory, select attribute equipment, and click Remove Attribute. Note: no El Shards will be regained through the process.


For example if you were to enchant a Lv40 weapon with Fire for the first time, then it would require 20 Fire El Shards. If it was a unique Lv40 it would require 21 El Shards instead. For a second Enchantment, it would require 60 more El Shards.
When removing enchantments for different attributes, be sure to remove ALL at once if re-attributing to III enchantment. Failing to do so will result in the use of excessive El Shards.

=== El Shard Requirements ===
[[File:HQ Shop Item 130047.png|thumb|El Shard (Mystery)]]
To add attributes to equipment, you must have a certain number of El Shards of a particular element in your inventory. El Shards can be found in various methods, such as trading with other players, event rewards, [[Ice Burners]], or identified from Mystery El Shards.  


<br>
Mystery El Shards can be used to apply a random element to your equipment, or you can refine them into elemental El Shards at random by right-clicking on them for a cost of 2000 ED each. All elements have an equal chance of being identified from a Mystery El Shard.
=== Formula ===
Depends on the grade of equip: Normal, Rare, Elite, or Unique.

Here is a full list of the effects of each element. There are two groups of elements; stacking and instant effect. When dual enchanting a weapon, you can only hybrid one element from each group. For example, you can mix Fire and Light, but mixing Water and Nature is impossible.
Here is a full list of the effects of each element. There are two groups of elements; stacking and instant effect. When dual attributing equipment, you can only combine one element from each group. For example, you can mix Fire and Light, but mixing Water and Nature is impossible.
*Mobs can randomly spawn with 1 (Up to Hard Mode and any Secret Dungeon modes except Luto Mode where a few mob appear with 1 elemental enchants) or 2 (Very Hard or in Secret Dungeon : Luto Mode) elemental enchants and they have a much higher chance of activating it. They can also gain magical or physical defenses.
** On harder difficulties, depends of number of party members, they spawn more frequently.


'''Weapon Attack = (Magic Attack + Physical Attack) ÷ 2'''
=== Stacking Elemental Effects ===
*In NA, this does not include enhancements and takes the weapon attack as if it was +0. On KR, it does include these, so Burning will do much more damage with a +9 weapon than a +4 weapon.
These elements' effects can be stacked up to three times each, hence the name of their group. This is indicated by the number over the debuff icon.


Each element upgrade will change it looks.
When a weapon is enchanted with a stackable attribute, the weapon will be enveloped in a small cloud of the element's color. When the attribute reaches level III or IV, the weapon outline of your character's commands will change to that same color. This will not affect [[Lu/Ciel|Lu]], [[Rose]], [[Ain]], or [[Laby]]. For Rena, [[Rena#Arrows_Graphical_Effects|the color of her arrows will change]] instead of her weapon outline.
*For '''Fire, Water''' and '''Poison''' attributes, a small flame of the attributes' color will form and envelop the weapon(Lv1), then to a bigger flame(Lv2) and lastly same as Lv2 but will change attack outline of each characters(Lv3).
*For '''Wind, Light''' and '''Dark''' attributes, their forms from a little light(Lv1), then to a brighter light(Lv2) and lastly a orb of swirling energy around the hand(Lv3).
<br>
<br>


=== Stacking Elemental Effects ===
==== [[File:Fire Icon.png]] Fire (Burning) ====
These elements' effects can be stacked up to three times each, hence the name of their group. The afflicted will have a tiny exclamation marks on top of the status effect bubble which indicate how strong the infliction; for example, if a weapon has 3 fire slots and inflicts thrice successfully within each infliction's time-frame, there will be 3 tiny exclamation marks on the bubble and the burn deals 360% of the weapon's attack power over 10 seconds.
[[File:FireELSTONE.png|thumb|El Shard (Fire)]]
<br>
Fire inflicts {{se|102|Burning||ed|icon=no}}, which drastically deals damage and MP burn over time. Increasing its enchantment level raises its chance of effect and the potency of damage it deals. Fire is the perfect damage addition when up against enemies with massive amounts of health. Although deadly in PvP, this element has had a drastic increase in people who stack up against it since Veteran Commander was released. Fire works especially well with fast attacking characters and high base attack power, like [[Elsword]], [[Nova Imperator]], and [[Oz Sorcerer]]. It is possible for the burn to kill enemies.  


==== [[Image:FireELSTONE.png]]  Fire (Burning) ====
Additionally, Fire Resistance will also increase the player's resistance towards {{se||Burn|tt=no}}.

Ever since the Element Revamp, Fire can now kill.

==== [[Image:IceELSTONE.png]]   Water (Freezing) ====
==== [[File:Water Icon.png]] Water (Freezing) ====
Water drastically decreases movement speed and lowers the enemy's defense stats. This will also reduce the knockback distance that enemies will travel. Its effect can be stacked up to three times. Increasing its enchantment level highly raises its chance of effect and the amount of time the effects lasts for. Water makes it very difficult for opponents to run away in PvP. People tend to stack up against this the most because of this movement crippling effect. Water works especially well with characters that utilize trapping, such as [[Grand Archer|Grand Archers]], [[Night Watcher|Night Watchers]], and [[Elemental Master|Elemental Masters]]. It is also particularly useful for Luto Mode in Secret Dungeons, due to monsters having extremely high defenses.
[[File:IceELSTONE.png|thumb|El Shard (Water)]]
Water inflicts {{se|104|Freezing||ed|icon=no}}, which drastically decreases Action Speed and lowers the enemy's defense stats. This will also reduce the knockback distance that enemies will travel. Increasing its enchantment level highly will raise its chance of effect. Water makes it a good compromise for PvP. Water works especially well with characters that utilize trapping, such as [[Daybreaker]], [[Twilight]], and [[Aether Sage]]. It is also particularly useful for dungeons where enemies have high defenses.
 
Additionally, Water Resistance will also increase the player's resistance towards {{se||Extreme Coldness|tt=no}}, {{se||Freeze|tt=no||label=no}}{{se|562|Freeze||ed|tt=no}}, {{se|097|Bubble Aura||ed|tt=no}}, and {{se|520|Weak Icerite||ed|tt=no}}.

==== [[Image:PoisonELSTONE.png]]   Nature (Poisoning) ====
==== [[File:Nature Icon.png]] Nature (Poisoning) ====
Nature slightly decreases attack speed and deals slight DoT (damage over time). Its effect can be stacked up to three times. Increasing its enchantment level raises its chance of effect, and the potency of damage it deals. Although not as strong as Fire, the reduced attack speed makes it a good compromise for PvP. Many players have an absolute resistance to Nature because it nullifies the threat of getting poisoned after the time counter ends in the [[4-X|Transporting Tunnel: Contaminated Area]] and stops [[6-5|Magmanta]]'s poison. Nature works especially well with fast attacking characters with high base attack power or characters that can lock combos, such as [[Lord Knight|Lord Knights]] and [[Wind Sneaker|Wind Sneakers]]. [[Night Watcher]] also benefits from this greatly, as it helps her low damage output while gaining an advantage over high speed opponents such as [[Blade Master]] and [[Infinity Sword]]. Like Fire, Nature can also kill.<br>
[[File:PoisonELSTONE.png|thumb|El Shard (Nature)]]
Additionally, Nature Resistance will also increase player's resistance towards Slow.  
Nature inflicts {{se|103|Poisoning||ed|icon=no}}, which slightly decreases Movement/Jump Speed and deals slight damage over time. Increasing its enchantment level raises its chance of effect and the potency of damage it deals. Although not as strong as Fire, Nature makes it very difficult for opponents to run away in PvP. People tend to stack up against this the most because of this movement crippling effect. Nature works especially well with fast attacking characters with high base attack power or characters that can lock combos, such as [[Knight Emperor]] and [[Anemos]]. [[Twilight]] also benefits from this greatly, as it helps her low damage output while gaining an advantage over high-speed opponents such as [[Furious Blade]] and [[Immortal]]. Like Fire, Nature can also kill.
 
Additionally, Nature Resistance will also increase the player's resistance towards {{se||Poison|tt=no}}, {{se||Move Slowdown|tt=no|label=no}}{{se|352|Move Slowdown||ed|tt=no}}, {{se|096|Tied Down||ed|tt=no}}, {{se|107|Dryad's Fury||ed|tt=no}}, and {{se|115|Toxic||ed|tt=no}}.

These elements' effects only work once each time they occur and do not stack, hence the name of their group.
When a weapon is enchanted with an attribute with an instant effect, a light will appear on your character's hand. As the level of enchantment increases, the light will increase in size until it forms an orb.

==== [[Image:WindELSTONE.png]]   Wind (Piercing) ====
==== [[File:Wind Icon.png]] Wind (Piercing) ====
Wind ignores the enemy's defense and guard and adds 40% more damage from the weapon's +0 attack power. When an attack activates Wind, the attack reduces [[Knockdown|knockdown]] by -10 (will take the lower value if the attack reduces [[Knockdown|knockdown]] as well). Increasing the enchantment level raises the chance of effect. This is not stacked very much on most of the servers, although there are people who heavily stack against this due to player preference. This enchantment works well on characters with high damage multipliers like [[Lord Knight|Lord Knights]],  [[Rena]], and [[Raven]] as well as multi-hitter specialists like [[Infinity Sword|Infinity Swords]], [[Code Nemesis|Code Nemesis]], and [[Crimson Avenger| Crimson Avenger]]. Combined with a high critical hit ratio, the raw power of Wind is a force to be reckoned with.<br>

==== [[Image:LightELSTONE.png]]   Light (Petrifying) ====
==== [[File:Light Icon.png]] Light (Petrifying) ====
Light petrifies enemies, stopping them mid animation leaving them open to attacks for a short period of time. Increasing its level of enchantment raises its chance of effect, and the amount of time enemies are petrified. In dungeons, Shock's effect will reset monsters' hit counter after it wears off, allowing for longer combos before knocking them down. Being petrified is similar to having Super Armor. Light works especially well with strong one-hit attackers or fast multi-hit attackers such as like [[Blade Master|Blade Masters]], [[Elemental Master|Elemental Masters]], and [[Add]]. However, this element can be disruptive and can cause early knockdowns in PvP due to bad timing, lag, or resistance.. Unfortunately, it does not take a high amount of light resistance to cause this defect. Light Element has most use in dungeons, where it can completely stop an enemy or boss from moving.<br>
[[File:LightELSTONE.png|thumb|El Shard (Light)]]
Additionally, Light Resistance will also increase player's resistance towards Stun and Blind in [[Photon Flare]].
Light inflicts {{se|105|Petrifying||ed|icon=no}}, which petrifies enemies, stopping them mid-animation and leaving them open to attacks for a short period of time. Increasing its level of enchantment raises its chance of effect and the petrification duration. In dungeons, Petrifying's effect will reset monsters' hit counter after it wears off, allowing for longer combos before knocking them down. Being petrified is similar to having Super Armor.

==== [[File:Dark Icon.png]] Dark (Plagued) ====
Dark drains a certain amount of HP and MP from enemies. Increasing its level of enchantment raises its chance of effect and the amount of HP and MP it drains. Dark works well with all characters, but works especially well with characters that have multiple-hit moves ([[Blade Master]], [[Infinity Sword]] [[Optimus]] etc.) or have long-ranged attacks that hit multiple enemies (moves such as [[Armageddon Blade]], passives such as [[Vibe Shot]], etc.).

Usually, resistance against this element is not invested by players for PvE. However, it is still a very common thing to stack up against it for PvP. Draining the exact amount of HP/MP is nearly impossible since most players and monsters have resistance towards all elements, although gaining even a small amount of its maximum value might make a huge difference for both PvP and PvE.


Usually, resistance against this element is not invested by players for PvE, however it is still a very common thing to stack up against it for PvP. Gaining the exact Snatch amount (x HP, 30 MP in Triple Master Snatch intensity) is nearly impossible since most players and monsters have resistance towards all elements, although gaining even a small amount of its maximum value might make a huge difference for both PvP and PvE. It is often considered to be the best and most useful element for most cases for all characters, and therefore tends to be more expensive in the Free Market than all the other stones.<br>
Additionally, Dark Resistance will also increase the player's resistance towards {{se|078|Aging|tt=no}} and {{se||Curse|tt=no}}.
Additionally, Dark Resistance will also increase player's resistance towards Senile and Curse.

==Dual Element Stones==
== How to calculate an elemental effect's value or duration ==
<math>E \times \left(1 - F\times \frac{ER - RD}{500}\right)</math>
 
* ''E'' - The value or the duration of the effect.
* ''F'' - Factor of effectiveness. 1 in Dungeons, 0.8 in PvP.
* ''ER'' - Elemental Resistance of the enemy. Set individually per monster, between 0 and 500.
* ''RD'' - Elemental Resistance Decrease from gear, skills, etc.

==Refined El Shards==
[[File:Refined_Freeze_Pierce.jpg|500px|thumb|right||Ingame description]]
[[File:Refined_Freeze_Pierce.jpg|500px|thumb|right||Ingame description]]
Rare Element Stones that give various types of double enchantment on weapons per use. These are obtainable from events. <br>
Refined El Shards are special El Shards that can automatically enchant two attributes when used. Refined El Shards can only be used on weapons and will remove any pre-existing attributes that the weapon has before applying its effects.  
To use them, right click on them, then select the weapon. <br><br>
'''All existing attributes will be wiped and replaced with that of the element stone.'''
<br><br>
Dual Element Stones are '''untradable'''.<br><br>
 
'''IMPORTANT:''' These take '''TWO''' elemental slots, NOT just one, so there are no special advantages in using these rather than regular elemental stones.


These items are obtainable from events and are not tradable between players.

== Tips and Details ==
*Beneficial effects coming from Attributes are affected by the enemy's Elemental Resistance stat. The lower resistance, the better the effect.
**The Elemental Resistance stat is not capped at 0, thus the effects will increase even beyond their maximum when it goes negative.
**Negative Water Attribute Resistance is able to extend the duration of {{se||Freeze}} from skills and items. It will also increase the Defense Pierce effect, making it extremely potent, provided that the enemy can be debuffed.
*Poison Resistance can be useful for a dungeon like [[Transporting Tunnel: Contaminated Area]], in which case the player will be able to avoid the auto-poisoning from the time limit running out.
*Fire Resistance can be useful for dungeons like [[Dragon Nest: Abyss]], that have a lot of fire-based obstacles and attacks.
*Water Resistance can be useful for a dungeon like [[Water Dragon's Compass]] against [[Denif]]'s '''Freeze''' debuff.
