When either an Elemental or High Elemental is summoned, they inherit ''all'' of the summoner's raw stats including '''MaxHP%''', '''Max DEF,''' '''Max MDef''', and '''Max FLEE Rate'''. Back in those days, when a Sorcerer ran a high '''VIT''' or high '''AGI''' build, their Elementals too would have high VIT and high AGI thus making them tanky and agile. A video documenting this official behavior will be seen [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxi1Ej4aQLU here], dating back in the year 2015. They inherit whatever stats you have ''<u>at the time of summoning</u>'' and they retain those stats for as long as they are active. So if you equip full tank gears that 's focused on high '''MaxHP%''' '''DEF''', '''MDef''', '''FLEE Rate''', they will receive all of those plus some additional stats depending on the spirits' elemental property. That being said, you can make a separate swap gear for your tank gears and switch to it whenever you're gonna summon your Elementals or High Elementals. It's generally a good idea to invest in those tank gears since it'll really make your spirits tanky and thus saves you from the frustration of having to resummon a new one every time they die which drastically decrease your DPS capability, particularly as an Elemental Master.

Now since our spirits don't have their own '''<big>UI</big>''' unlike the Homunculus of Biolo, we will be following the following equations to formulate their individual stats:
Now since our spirits don't have their own '''<big>UI</big>''' unlike the Homunculus of Biolos, we will be following the following equations to formulate their individual stats:
  '''Max HP'''    = [(SummonerMaxHP ÷ 3) + (SummonerINT x 10) + (SummonerJobLv x 20)] × [(SummonLv + 2) ÷ 3]
  '''Max HP'''    = [(SummonerMaxHP ÷ 3) + (SummonerINT x 10) + (SummonerJobLv x 20)] × [(SummonLv + 2) ÷ 3]
  '''Max SP'''    = (SummonerMaxSP ÷ 4)
  '''Max SP'''    = (SummonerMaxSP ÷ 4)

Another defensive layer you can incorporate or use is the skill '''{{#skill:5381}}''', which turns your High Elementals transparent making them untargetable. As we've previously stated, this skill is good to have when you have enough points to expend; otherwise you can skip this skill since AoE skills will still damage them. When you're too cheap and would want to save your elemental catalysts, there's also '''{{#skill:2464}}''' that heals your Elementals and High Elementals alike by taking out 10% of your HP/SP. Now, when you use this skill you might want to swap back to your tank gears by then. This is simply because you have fewer HP with your DPS gears for sure and your Spirits have higher MaxHP% than you do. Healing them with Elemental Cure while having low amount of HP will also only heal them by small amounts, whereas if you use switch to your tank gears you have more MaxHP%. The only problem with this is once you've switched to your tank gears, your HP won't be full so to solve that problem bring with you some  {{#item:607}}or {{#item:608}} to restore your HP/SP. One other way to heal your spirits passively is by placing them into '''Waiting Mode''' using '''{{#skill:2456}}'''. Remember they are passively recovering 2% HP/SP while in this mode for every 3 seconds.

Both the Elementals and High Elementals follow the equations in calculating their individual stats. Now the question if High Elementals have their own set of equations the answer is nobody knows but the Gravity developers. Information regarding the 4th job summons are few and so for the meantime while we lack accurate info we'll be following this one right here. I could only imagine it being better for the High Elementals if they did have their own equations. As you can see, the formula don't include the 4th jobs traits such as STA, WIS, RES, & MRES, so if in a turn of events it did somehow included those traits then our High Elementals are supposedly should be tankier than Elementals. Fret not though, because even with those traits your High Elementals are still durable. With the proper set of tank gears, my High Elementals could survive even the most hard-hitting skills of MVPs such as Juncea's '''{{#skill:83}}''', Schulang's''' {{#skill:85}}''', Phantom of Amdarais' {{#skill:91}} '''Heaven's Drive,''' Lasgand's '''{{#skill:89}}''', Warlock Katrinn's '''{{#skill:2216}}''', Sorcerer Celia's '''{{#skill:2449}}''', Rune Knight Seyren's '''{{#skill:2006}}''', Temple Biosphere mobs' '''{{#skill:254}}''', the Dark Grand Crosses of the Depth Valkyries from Depth Abyss 2 as well as NPC Earthquakes from the Depth Salamanders. The only thing it can't survive so far is Betelgeuse's '''{{#skill:2217}}''' though they can survive Tiara's and Fenrir's Tetra Vortex.

'''A note to myself''': I'll provide GIFs  to show they can survive those skills one of these days when I have more free time and when I am more knowledgeable in handling GIFs. Always good to have visual aids~
