The Elementals and High Elementals are part of an Elemental Master's vast skill kit. They give offensive, defensive, and passive buffs to the summoner on which mode they are activated. Upon a successful summoning of your companion spirits, you have the option to place them in either Passive mode, Defensive mode, or Offensive mode. Each of these modes have uses that are essential in what makes Elemental Master a versatile class. | The Elementals and High Elementals are part of an Elemental Master's vast skill kit.

'''Passive mode''' for the most part is used to buff an EM's offensive capabilities outside of its own summons. Meaning this is usually a direct buff to the summoner and not to the spirits themselves though sometimes both can benefit from it <u>since your spirit's stats completely depend on their master's own stats</u>. Also starting from the Sorcerer to Elemental Master, all of your spirits' Passive mode caters mostly to '''{{#skill:2449}}''' and '''{{#skill:2445}}''' builds and thus finds very little use when focusing on 4th job skills of EM. The only instance we could think of that it still complements 4th job skills is <span style="color:purple;">Serpens</span> on Passive mode. <span style="color:purple;">Serpens</span> will increase your 3rd job skill '''{{#skill:2450}}''' by 1500% which if you're focusing on a <span style="color:purple;">Poison</span>-centric build will be beneficial for you. Or when you're still incorporating Psychic Wave into your skill rotation cycle since its elemental property can be endowed according to the element of your currently summoned Elemental or High Elemental. | '''Passive mode''' for the most part is used to buff an EM's offensive capabilities outside of its own summons.

Meanwhile, '''Offensive mode''' is the state where your spirits will go on an aggro or attack state. They'll randomly attack, select and cast skills they know in their skill pool at a certain chance. For most people this mode looks and sounds useless which to a degree is true since why would you want your spirits to gain aggro and get attacked when they're already too frail to begin with. But you should know that there are ways to make them tankier than even your own, and spirits gaining aggro from mobs lets you farm efficiently or stay alive as long as possible. Think of them as your own version of the Biolo's Homunculus. | Meanwhile, '''Offensive mode''' is the state where your spirits will go on an aggro or attack state.
