Furthermore, insignias provide one of the strongest debuff in the game. Each insignia has the ability to '''boost the counter element''' no matter which level you use. For example, if you use '''<span style="color:red;">{{#skill:2465}}</span>''' at any level, '''any units''' '''inside''' the insignias' 3x3 AoE will take 50% more damage against <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> elemental attacks. If EMs are standing inside the <span style="color:red;">Fire</span> insignias' AoE, they, too, will receive increased damage against <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> elemental attacks of the MVP. This rings true for the other elemental insignias. Okay this part is important—now if you use a '''Lvl. 2''' '''<span style="color:green;">{{#skill:2467}}</span>''' in a party because you have a melee class user and you plan on buffing him with the insignia's buffing effects ('''Endow weapon with the <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> property''', +10% ASPD, and +10% ATK),  and since he is in melee range and you need to adjust so both of you as well as the MVP would be standing inside <span style="color:green;">Wind Insignia</span> and '''<span style="color:blue;">{{#skill:2466}}</span>''' for its debuffing effect, you might want to think twice; that's because with the observed conditions mentioned, the MVP will also have its weapon element endowed to <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> which means his attacks will hit like a truck and could possibly kill you both since you two are standing on a <span style="color:blue;">Water Insignia</span>. This could have been prevented if you just used a '''Lvl. 1''' or '''Lvl. 3''' '''<span style="color:green;">{{#skill:2467}}</span>''' instead and that way you could have avoided endowing the MVP's weapon to <span style="color:green;">Wind</span>. While a '''Lvl. 1''' <span style="color:green;">Wind Insignia</span> has neutral effect on the three of you, a '''Lvl. 3''' <span style="color:green;">Wind Insignia</span> would have boosted your <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> property magical skills like '''{{#skill:5370}}''' and you would have even received +50% ACD on your <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> skills (just be sure that the MVP doesn't use any <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> skills or else he benefits from it too). Conversely, if you want to tank Lasgand's basic attacks, and you happen to use <span style="color:#BD0F1E;">Ardor</span> on '''Lvl. 2''' '''{{#skill:2456}}''' ('''Defensive Mode''')  you can place a '''Lvl. 2''' '''<span style="color:red;">{{#skill:2465}}</span>''' underneath Lasgand to forcibly endow his weapon attack to the <span style="color:red;">Fire</span> element so you can tank his hits head on.
