Attributes and Elemental Bonus Damage
Every hero has an attribute. When you attack an attribute you are strong against, you deal 12% more damage (Elemental Bonus Damage).
| Attribute | Heroes | Strong against (+12%) | Weak against |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aruru, Asura | Stone, Fire | Light, Force | |
| Ishtar, Lakshmi | Darkness, Force | Water, Leaf | |
| Iskandar, Indra | Leaf, Stone | Darkness, Water | |
| Tiamat, Nanna | Fire, Light | Stone, Leaf | |
| Aristo | Water, Leaf | Darkness, Fire | |
| Tammuz | Light, Water | Fire, Stone | |
| Elena | Darkness | Light |
“Weak against” means those attributes deal 12% more damage to you.
Skills and base stats
