Elemental Spirits Guidelines

[Phoenix]

Elemental Spirits are the very weapons of summoners. For some, they are merely tools but for others, they are friends as well as allies in combat. Elemental Spirits have minds of their own hence, they are capable of full combat based on their own tactics. Entering into a contract with a summoner however, binds them to the will of the Summoner.

As a beginner, a summoner can only have one E Ranked Elemental Spirit at their control. Post here to register your elemental spirit. It can only bear an elemental affinity of the tribe in which the summoner belongs to.

Elemental Spirit Stats

Summoners are given 4 stat points to distribute on each of the Elemental Spirit's stats. Each stat can accommodate up to a maximum of 2 stat points. Once the Elemental Spirit is approved with the stats, there's no more changing it so be wise in choosing where to put 'em stats.

• Strength: This defines the physical damage an Elemental Spirit can deal. Putting no star to it ranks the spirit's strength one level down from its current level hence, an E ranked Elemental Spirit with no point in strength has no bonus in its base physical damage. Having a point in this stat gives the Elemental Spirit a strength, equal to its rank. Having two points on this stat gives the Elemental Spirit a strength that is one rank higher than it's own rank. Damage calculation for Elemental Spirits is (10 * Rank of Elemental Spirit) + (10 * Rank of Strength).
  
  
• Vitality: This defines an Elemental Spirit's endurance in battle. Giving no point to this stat gives it a vitality one rank below it's own rank. An E ranked Elemental Spirit having no point in Vitality receives no bonus on its health point. Giving a point to this stat gives the Elemental Spirit a vitality equal to its own rank and having two points gives it a vitality a rank higher than its own rank. Health calculation for Elemental Spirits is (100 * Rank of Elemental Spirit) + (100 * Rank of Vitality).
  
  
• Agility: This defines the speed at how much an Elemental Spirit can move and react to attacks. Putting no point to this stat gives an Elemental Spirit a speed of one rank below it's own rank. An E ranked Elemental Spirit with no point in Agility is incapable of movement. Giving a point to this stat enables an Elemental Spirit to have an agility equal to its own rank and two points to this stat gives an Elemental Spirit an agility, one rank higher than its own rank.
  
  
  
  • Rank E: Moves at 10 meters per second, reaction rate of 0.25 seconds
    
  • Rank D: Moves at 20 meters per second, reaction rate of 0.225 seconds
    
  • Rank C: Moves at 30 meters per second, reaction rate of 0.2 seconds
    
  • Rank B: Moves at 40 meters per second, reaction rate of 0.15 seconds
    
  • Rank A: Moves at 50 meters per second, reaction rate of 0.10 second
    
  • Rank S: Moves at 60 meters per second, reaction rate of 0.05 second
    
  • Rank S+: Moves at 70 meters per second, reaction rate of 0.025 second
    
  
  
  
• Magic: This defines how proficient an elemental spirit is with its active skills. Elemental Spirits, unlike Summoners have no mana pools hence, they can use their skills as much as they like but still following the cool down for each skill. Giving no point to this skill halves the power of all the Elemental Spirit's active skills. A point in this skill just let the Elemental Spirit use its active skills with their normal power. Two points in this skill gives the active skills of an Elemental Spirit a 50% boost in power and two points makes the power of their active skills double. Elemental Spirits can train their skills up to a rank higher than their own rank.

When a skill type is used in a multiclass spell, it can only be utilized up to 25% when such skill type is given 1 point, 50% with 2 points and in an indefinite percentage with 3 points.
