Elemental Damage

**Elemental Damage** is a collective term for all seven major types of damage used in Kagihime Monogatari Eikyū Alice Musou.

Fire damages immediately, but some fire skills and Musou attacks produce burning flames on the ground that can deal damage over time to anything that stands in the flames. Fire is found in any playable characters e.g. Rofel Dragonite or just for environmental effect. But players must still take care to stand near burning ground, lest they themselves get burnt and add fuel to the fire.

Usually Ice is associated with colors blue or white while Water element used by Kisa Misaki is associated with blue and purple colors.

Ice damage is taken rather seriously by players because of its versatility. Ice is not known for its damage range or amount but more for its effects of slowing, freezing and shattering opponents.
