'''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. Also starting from 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 I 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. To not be confused, Passive Mode is not the same as the '''High Elemental | '''Passive Mode''' for the most part is used to buff an EM's offensive capabilities outside of its own summons.

To not be confused, Passive Mode is not the same as the '''High Elemental's''' '''passive effects'''; unlike Passive Mode which requires a separate activation mechanic via '''Lvl'''. '''1''' '''{{#skill:2456}}''', the passive effects of your High Elementals are like active buffs that they bestow upon you for as long as they are alive and present. | ||
On the other hand, '''Defensive Mode''' unlike Passive Mode is used to buff an EM's defensive capabilities. Spirits would endow an EM's armor property to their corresponding element. If for example you have <span style="color:#BD0F1E;">Ardor</span> summoned and you placed him in Defensive mode, he will change your armor property to <span style="color:red;">Fire</span> and you'll get decreased damaged against <span style="color:red;">Fire</span> property attacks but reduced resistance for the opposing element which is <span style="color:blue;">Water</span>. Another good example is '''Lvl'''. '''1''' '''{{#skill:2459}}''' in its Child form placed in Defensive Mode; in this mode, <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> doesn't endow your armor to <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> but she does however give you free {{#icon:12710}}{{#linkitem:12710|Guyak Pudding}} effect and +'''50% FLEE''' '''Rate''' for as long as she is active. | On the other hand, '''Defensive Mode''' unlike Passive Mode is used to buff an EM's defensive capabilities.
