エレスで頑張るためのメモ②


Damage Outburst
  • As I have mentioned under Glacial Wave about the 50% damage increment under a frozen state, here are some possible skill pairings.
    グレイシャルウェーブ下でのダメージ増加状態(凍結状態の相手を攻撃すると通常よりもダメージが50%増加する)における簡単なコンボ。
i.      Glacial Wave + Fire Bird / Phoenix Storm
ii.     Glacial Wave + Inferno
iii.    Glacial Wave + Firewall
iv.    Glacial Wave + Flame Road
v.     Glacial Wave + Fireball
Tormentor
  • Tormentor refers to constantly making your opponents unable to retaliate
    相手に反撃(受け身、回避、カウンター含)をさせない連携
i.      Freezing Sword + Firewall OR Firewall + Freezing Sword
アイシクルエッジ後にファイアウォール(逆順でも可)を置く
(if your opponent activates Aerial Evasion straight after the 1st skill, there he goes lying on the ground)
もし最初のスキルを当てた際に相手がエアリアルを消費した場合、次のスキルで相手は強制ダウン状態になる
ii.      (When your opponent is lying o the floor) Poison Missile + Icy Stab / Frozen Spikes
ダウン状態の相手に対して、ポインズン+フリージングスパイク
iii.     Freezing Sword + Hammer Attack
アイシクルエッジで拾いなおし、ハンマーストライク
iv.     Shockwave + Freezing Field
ショックウェーブで吹き飛ばし、フリージングフィールドでしめ
Elemental Lock
  • Elemental Lock refers to an immovable state of your opponent. Depending on the degree of lock, he can neither move nor cast any spells for a certain duration. The degree of lock will depend on whether you levelled your various Ice-based spells high. Hence, a high degree of lock will only be achievable upon Lv40 and above.
    (エレメンタルロックとは)多重凍傷により相手を動けなくさせる状態。凍傷の度合いに応じて、相手は一定の間動くことも攻撃することもできなくなる。凍傷の度合いは氷スキルのレベルに依存している。なので高い凍傷度合い(80~100%の鈍足率)を与えるにはLv40以上にする必要がある。
  • This lock involves the use of Icy Fraction, and that would mean that you can only perform this lock once every 45 seconds (or more). Simply by using an Ice spell to freeze or slow your target, and with that activate Icy Fraction. After Icy Fraction, if you are able to hit him again with another Ice spell, he will be slowed to an extreme handicapped state. One significant example would be levelling Freezing Field to Lv9 or more.
    この停止状態(エレメンタルロック)にはアイシフレクションの使用が前提となるため、45秒に1回しかこの状態に持ち込むことは出来ない。方法はいたって簡単で、まず氷スキルで鈍足or氷結状態にした相手にアイシフレクションを当てる。その後さらに鈍足系のスキルを当てることで相手は操作不能なレベルにまで動作が遅くなる。以下例。1つ目のサンプルはフリージングフィールドがLv9以上であることが必要。
i.      Glacial Wave + Icy Fraction + Freezing Field Lv9 (100% lock) 鈍足率100%=完全停止
ii.     Freezing Sword + Icy Fraction + Frost Wind Lv9 (80% – 100% lock) 鈍足率80-100%
The list gets endless, but you get the idea. Ice spell 1 + Icy Fraction + Ice spell 2. Of course, all 3 skills must hit, if not you won’t be able to lock your target. However, some ice spells like Freezing Sword and Chilling Mist may not achieve a good lock (maybe about 50% – 80%) upon using them as the 2nd Ice spell.
この停止状態にする組み合わせはいくらでもあげられるが、重要なのは、氷スキル1->アイシフレクション->氷スキル2、という組み合わせ。またアイシクルエッジとチリングミストは十分な鈍足率を与えられないため氷スキル2として用いるには不向きである。
Upon successfully locking your target, you know what to do.
停止状態にしたら、あとは好き勝手コンボを決める。
After seeing so many short skill combos, combining each and every of them will lead you to the long skill chains. As for the combinations, here are some examples.
まずは短いコンボをたくさん見て使って覚える。あとはそれらをどんどんつないでいけばおのずと長いコンボが使えるようになる。例えばこんな。
  1. Flame Spark -> Normal Attack (Flinched) -> Poison Missile -> Frozen Spike -> Frost Wind -> (After the target gets up) Glacial Wave -> Phoenix Storm -> Inferno
  2. Glacial Wave -> Firewall -> Icy Shards -> Inferno -> Flame Spark OR Frost Wind -> Poison Missile -> Frozen Spike
  3. Freezing Sword -> Hammer Attack -> Poison Missile -> Frozen Spike -> Inferno
  4. Poison Missile -> Frozen Spike -> Inferno OR Fireball -> Frost Wind OR Flame Spark -> Glacial Wave -> Icy Shards -> Firewall
Note: The above stated combos are not conclusive of the list. There can be many other combos as well. In addition, when some of your skills are on cooldown, you would have to think of another combo on the spot.
I just want to emphasize that, these 3 different styles are just there to indicate certain preferences on the levels to place for each different skill. For example, if you focus more on the Damage Outburst style, you can level Fireball or Fire Bird / Phoenix Storm high for that outburst. For Tormentor, you can increase Icy Stab / Frozen Spikes or Inferno high. As for Elemental Lock, Freezing Field minimum at Lv9 for a 100% lock. So let us take a look at some skill builds.

(略)


- You have to face this fact. There are just insufficient SPs to suit your build. If possible, everybody would want to max their skills. So with some pros, there must be some cons. Here are some possible choices.
1) Get Phoenix Storm + Ignition, and forget about Flame Road.
2) Get Flame Road and forget about Phoenix Storm + Ignition.
- Getting both Phoenix Storm + Ignition and Flame Road will severely impair you on SPs.
- Please do not pick one of the builds by counting the number of pros against the number of cons.
- And again, I shall say that these builds are not conclusive. Do not blindly add your skills based on the builds here. It also depends on your playing style, like how often you use a particular skill. There can be other builds players have in mind too.
Heraldrys
For Heraldrys, please refer to the Heraldry Section for Elemental Lords. Pick the skills that you chose to level high in your skill build.
Tactics
Elemental Lords can be deadly when their skills are carefully used. There are mainly 2 stages in the PvP.
The first stage is when most of your deadly spells are on cooldown. Do not open full firepower on them because you will realise you don’t have sufficient spells to attack. Simply disturb them with Flame Spark, Frost Wind, Glacial Spike and probably Flame Worm. If your better spells are ready, such as Poison Missile and Frozen Spike, use them too. After disturbing, stay clear of them. (I do not recommend running away from sight to wait on all your cooldowns. Just stay within sight and disturb + dodging. You probably won’t be able to outrun Warriors and FUs either.)
The second stage is when you got your stronger spells ready. However, be cautious of your initiative attack. One of the most common approach would be a Flame Spark + an attack to flinch your target. Do not use Glacial Wave unless you are sure you can get a hit. It is easily cancelled by various fast spells like Twin Shot and Eclipse. Once your target stays lying on the ground, you know what to do. Refer to the above stated combos.
Remember that getting your opponents to use their escaping skills such as Aerial Evasion and Urgency Trick is one of the ways to prepare yourself for a full force attack that they can’t retaliate. Likewise for yourself, do not use Aerial Evasion when a SM is in the midst of his Aerial Combo.
Do not go head on with your opponents’ spells, because it is likely that your spell gets interrupted instead of theirs. Always try to find the best opportunity to initiate your attack, because most of the Elemental Lord’s skills have an initial casting animation like Firewall and Freezing Field.
Final Words
After reading this entire wall of text, I believe you have learnt pretty much about ELs. To be a good PvP EL, there must be practice, and more practice. You may face extreme difficulties in winning classes like SMs, Acros, Paladins, and even BMs. However, PvP-ing with an EL is definitely very challenging and fun. Afterall, a SM requires less effort than his EL opponent requires to win her.
