As what can be seen from the equations, all of the stats for the Elementals and High Elementals are influenced and dependent with that of the summoner's. Besides inheriting their summoner's stats, they also get additional stats based on what forms ('''Child''', '''Adolescent''', or '''Adult''') they assume as well as what kind of spirit they are. Taking into consideration the '''MDef''' equation <code>SummonerMDEF + [(SummonerINT) ÷ (5 − SummonLv)]</code>, a Level 3 <span style="color:red;">Agni</span> for example will yield higher '''MDef''' values due to having lower divisor values as compared to Lvls. 1 or 2. Although, it's uncertain or rather I haven't confirmed with [GM] Muh what would be the value for it if it's <span style="color:darkred;">Ardor</span> for instance since technically he is already on Adult form, and 4th job High Elementals don't have a child or adolescent form. It's even more uncertain for <span style="color:purple;">Serpens</span>' case since he doesn't have any 3rd job base counterpart or maybe whatever base Elemental he was summoned from that's where he'll get his benefits from. But anyway with that in mind, you would also want to build as much HP% as you could get since in the equation for '''Max HP''' <code>(SummonerMaxHP ÷ 3)</code> , your total MaxHP is divided by 3, and the only way to mitigate that is if you build tons of MaxHP% either from equips, consumables or party buffs. It's also noticeable that our Spirits don't benefit at all in our total MAtk or ATK which is why their basic attacks and magical skills do little to nothing | As what can be seen from the equations, all of the stats for the Elementals and High Elementals are influenced and dependent with that of the summoner's.

Apart from building your own stats and improving on it, you could also benefit from party buffs or class buffs. Since remember, whatever is your stats ''<u>at the time of summoning</u>'', will be considered into the equation and will be inherited by your Spirits. One way of making this work is by having Performer slaves give you their buffs. Notable skills to use for that purpose are '''{{#skill:322}}''', {{#skill:5007}}'''Frigg's Song''', {{#skill:2431}}'''Lerad's Dew''', the Arch Bishop skill '''{{#skill:2047}}''', and your very own skill from the Sage skill tree '''{{#skill:286}}'''. Remember how I mentioned earlier that Deluge will make your spirits tankier? Well there you have it! From the EM branch, High Elementals will benefit from the passive '''{{#skill:5374}}''', which gives some flat HP and some defensive bonuses, but only High Elementals though; Elementals don't benefit from this passive. We also have our passive from the Sorcerer branch '''{{#skill:2463}}''', which acts as a final multiplier to the total MaxHP%/MaxSP% for both our Elementals and High Elementals once all the calculations are done. | Apart from building your own stats and improving on it, you could also benefit from party buffs or class buffs.
