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. | 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.

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. | The amount of possible enchants relies on the weapon's level.

Fire 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. | Fire inflicts {{se||Burn}}, which drastically deals damage and MP burn over time.

Nature 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. | Nature inflicts {{se||Poison}}, which slightly decreases Movement/Jump Speed and deals slight damage over time.

Wind ignores the enemy's defense and guard and adds 40% more damage from the weapon's attack power. When an attack activates Wind, the attack reduces Knockdown by -10 (will take the lower value if the attack reduces 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 [[Knight Emperor]], [[Rena]], and [[Raven]] as well as multi-hitter specialists like [[Immortal]], [[Code: Ultimate]], and [[Bloody Queen]]. Combined with a high critical hit ratio, the raw power of Wind is a force to be reckoned with. | Wind ignores the enemy's defense and guard and adds 40% more damage from the weapon's attack power.

Light 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. Light works especially well with strong one-hit attackers or fast multi-hit attackers such as [[Furious Blade]], [[Aether Sage]], 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 effect. Light Element has most use in dungeons, where it can completely stop an enemy or boss from moving. | Light petrifies enemies, stopping them mid-animation and leaving them open to attacks for a short period of time.

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.
