* From the tables above, all three (3) weapons used for the tests were refined, reformed, and graded to +12 [A] Elemental Spirits from an Encroached Book.

* The chosen element of Elemental Buster used for these set of tests was Earth.

* In collating the values for Elemental Buster, Terra Drive and Diamond Storm, the whole bundled tick was recorded. Meanwhile, for our three (3) lingering AoE skills, only their 1st and individual tick was listed.

* Total value for the 3rd column are skills' overall value additively. Only the 1st tick was added from Lightning Land, Conflagration, and Venom Swamp and not the entire 3~10 ticks.

* Based from the test results, the book with the Matk% and Earth Element% modifiers (2nd/3rd line enchants) gave out the strongest <u>'''overall damage value'''</u> for all your skills. However, if we're only taking into account single element—Earth in this case—then the book with all Earth elemental magical damage will give more damage for our Terra Drive and Earth-endowed Elemental Buster. And lastly, for our other skills with Fire/Water/Wind/Poison elements, the book with all MAtk% enchants gave slightly more value but not significant; at least not significant enough to make the MAtk% book's total value of all its skills greater than the other two books.

* As an Elemental Master, it's true we cycle all our skills with different elements, but with Elemental Spirits' ability to make us spam an Earth-endowed (or any element for that matter) Elemental Buster twice in a row and then our own Terra Drive which is also Earth, that will be three (3) Earth elemental magic skills versus your other skills that will stand on their own.

* It is ultimately better to focus on one (1) element instead of evenly distributing your elemental modifiers, most especially if you have more than one skill that can assume Earth element. The more frequent you cast skills with the same element, the better your total damage will become.

* The all Earth magical damage book is obviously the strongest <u>when only focusing on Earth and nothing more</u>. This would be a good book to use if you just want to alternate between Terra Drive and Diamond Storm to autocast Earth Elemental Buster, but if you plan on cycling other skills into the fold then the book with MAtk% and Earth magical damage would be a better choice instead. The MAtk% book is also not bad because it could also act as an all-rounder book that will be valued for its versatility; and since getting perfect enchants on Encroached weapons are unapologetically hard, settling on a general weapon would be reasonable.

**When maintaining your DPS and reaching the highest possible value, the MAtk% and Earth book was more consistent. Damage doesn't fluctuate as much.

**In the MAtk%, the damage is slightly consistent but it fails to reach the highest possible DPS output. Damage does fluctuate slightly below than the MAtk% and Earth book.

**As for the Earth magic book, it will succeed on reaching the highest DPS output, but then after a while the damage will fall off hard until you go back to spamming your Earth magical skills.
