| |
| * Surprise, surprise, the once neglected <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span> element is now your primary element and it's about time for our stalwart <span style="color:#966606;">Terremotus</span> to get his fair share of the spotlight! With {{#icon:540114}}{{#linkitem:540114|Elemental Spirits}} now as your main weapon for endgame, most of your modifiers will be funneled towards <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span> and <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> elements. This is even further backed up when you pair {{#icon:300594}}{{#linkitem:300594|Ilse El Heine Card}} with {{#icon:400724}}{{#linkitem:400724|Yorscalp Crown of Judgment}}. This combo will give you '''75%''' '''{{#skill:5373}}''' and '''{{#skill:5370}}''' modifiers when both your Yorscalp Crown and Elemental Spirits are refined to +15, and then on top of that you can capitalize on the 100% <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span>/<span style="color:blue;">Water</span> element magical property bonuses from {{#item:27362}}.
| |
| * Due to the insane amounts of skill modifiers that you will reap off of the Episode 21 card Ilse El Heine and Yorscalp Crown combo, this gives <span style="color:#966606;">Terremotus</span> a sharper edge than Diluvio even though both of them will benefit from other sources of damage modifiers.
| |
| * In a party composition where you will benefit from all kinds of buffs, <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span> proves to be the strongest element to choose from. The Arch Mage class will act as a dedicated debuffer via their skill '''Level 4''' '''{{#skill:5232}}''' + '''{{#skill:5218}}''' ('''Climax Earth''') to reduce the affected enemies' <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span> resistance by 100%. <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> element doesn't get such debuffs from the Arch Mage, but <span style="color:red;">Fire</span> will get some via '''Level 4''' '''{{#skill:5232}}''' + '''{{#skill:5222}}''' ('''Climax Bloom'''), which will reduce the opponents' <span style="color:red;">Fire</span> element resistance by 100%. Combine all these debuffs with your own elemental insignias and you will for sure shine the brightest among all the magical classes in your party.
| |
| * Apart from increasing the base MAtk% of your Terra Drive skill, <span style="color:#966606;">Terremotus</span> will also grant you the ability to endow your '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>''' to the <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span> element. Both skills are burst type and their main purpose is to either delete monsters in a single cast or melt them fast enough to end the fight immediately. Elemental Spirits gives you the ability for both skills to coexist at the same time via autocasting, so I would advise you to utilize this advantage.
| |
| * One of the best areas where Terremotus is ideally used is in the endgame dungeon Zero Cell Sector (Nox & Ark). Granted the monsters '''M.GN-6059''', '''M.GN-0001''' and their partner homunculus are Fire and Earth element and thus resists and are immune against Earth—respectively, <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span>-endowed '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>''' will hit all the mobs here. Nox Floor mobs are also generally less tanky than Ark Floor's and they will die instantly with your Double Busters when you're endgame geared.

| |
| * <span style="color:#0685CF;">Diluvio</span> also gets a glow up alongside <span style="color:#966606;">Terremotus</span> because she also benefits from {{#icon:540114}}{{#linkitem:540114|Elemental Spirits}}'s autocast shenanigan. Every time you cast '''{{#skill:5369}}''', you will autocast '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>''', and when you use the card {{#item:27362}} you will get 100% <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span>/<span style="color:blue;">Water</span> element magical property bonuses. As had been previously mentioned, the two primary reasons why Diluvio ranked 2nd and below Terremotus is because Diamond Storm won't get any skill modifiers from {{#icon:300594}}{{#linkitem:300594|Ilse El Heine Card}}+ {{#icon:400724}}{{#linkitem:400724|Yorscalp Crown of Judgment}}, and <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> won't get any less 100% resistance from Arch Mage's debuffs. However, Arch Mage can give you '''30%''' <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> property elemental modifier with their skill '''Level 1''' '''{{#skill:5232}}''' + '''{{#skill:5225}}''', but with the enormous amount of elemental modifier you will have and due to the so-called diminishing returns, the added bonuses won't be as impactful as compared to when elemental resistance is reduced by 100%.
| |
| * <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> gets access to one of your elemental floor buffs via '''{{#skill:286}}''', and this skill boosts any <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> property elemental attacks by 20% including your Diamond Storm and <span style="color:blue;">Water</span>-endowed '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>'''. The damage boost you get from Deluge will make it on par with <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span>'s Ilse El Heine and Yorscalp Crown combo. One of the key reasons why both <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span> and <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> builds are comparable to one another for solo-play, but differ greatly once placed in a party scenario.
| |
| * <span style="color:#0685CF;">Diluvio</span> will retain all of its utility including endowing your armor to the <span style="color:blue;">Water</span> property to give you 100% resistance against <span style="color:blue;">Water</span>-based attacks via '''Level 2''' '''{{#skill:2456}}''' ('''Defensive Mode'''). This will make you survive Encroached Tan's '''{{#skill:2204}}''' and Ghost Ship Captain's '''{{#skill:86}}'''. Even with no access to {{#item:4128}}, you can easily cheese your way and make instance farming effortless.

| |
| ||
| |
| *<span style="color:purple;">Serpens</span> for the most part is only really used for '''Varmundt's Biosphere Depth 2''' and '''Forgotten Time'''. Nothing much has changed for <span style="color:purple;">Serpens</span> with the addition of {{#icon:540114}}{{#linkitem:540114|Elemental Spirits}}. Despite losing some <span style="color:purple;">Poison</span> property modifiers from Time Dimensions combo, that was compensated with the ability to double cast your '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>''' without ever needing to switch books. It just made your farming speed faster for these two dungeons honestly. And if you worry too much about the loss of <span style="color:purple;">Poison</span> property modifier, you can always find a good distribution of <span style="color:purple;">Poison</span> magical enchants on your {{#item:540109}} first before reforming it to Elemental Spirits.
| |
| *In Depth 2 and Forgotten Time, all the mobs, with the exception of the Valkyrie and the Contaminated Spirits, are made up of <span style="color:red;">Fire</span>, <span style="color:blue;">Water</span>, <span style="color:green;">Wind</span>, and <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span> properties and if you still remember from the previous section we've talked about—<span style="color:purple;">Poison</span> is strong against the four (4) basic elements. Levels 1 & 2 monsters of these elements take '''150% damage''' against <span style="color:purple;">Poison</span> while Levels 3 & 4 mobs receive '''125% damage'''. <span style="color:purple;">Serpens</span> is perfect for these two dungeons.
| |
| *<span style="color:purple;">Serpens</span> outside of Depth 2 and Forgotten Time is not technically bad; you may still use him but there are just better High Elementals for those areas. <span style="color:purple;">Poison</span> element is also mostly for coverage where it's there to hit the mobs that the four (4) basic elements resist.
| |
| *When using <span style="color:purple;">Serpens</span>, avoid using '''Lvl. 2''' '''{{#skill:2456}}''' ('''Defensive Mode'''). While <span style="color:purple;">Poison</span> element is strong offensively against <span style="color:red;">Fire</span>, <span style="color:blue;">Water</span>, <span style="color:green;">Wind</span>, and <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span>, it is also weak against them defensively; if you endow your armor to <span style="color:purple;">Poison 1</span>, you'll receive '''150% damage'''. Better to just leave him in Passive Mode or Waiting Mode.

| |
| *<span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> will always going to make it to the list no matter what despite her being an Elemental because it is simply necessary and I just can't help it but include our baby <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span>!
| |
| *We're already in 4th jobs era and <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> is still our best friend and our close confidant for everywhere else we go~ Whether we need to have Guyak she'll give it to us for free with the help of her Wind Step skill. Now you can casually farm {{#item:25223}}at Second Power Plant and when you don't want to be late for events she'll make your move faster than the speed of light!
| |
| *Baby Ventus with her Adolescent and Adult Forms can also provide easy access to 1 second FCT reduction when '''Lvl. 1''' '''{{#skill:2456}}''' ('''Passive Mode''') is activated which helps newbies early on in their journey.
| |
