Elemental Gauge

The Elemental Gauge indicates whether you are under the influence of Astral Fire (after casting a Fire spell) or Umbral Ice (after casting a Blizzard spell). While under the influence of Astral Fire, all Fire spells will have increased potency, but require more MP to cast. While under the influence of Umbral Ice, all Blizzard spells will have no cost, and will recover MP upon striking a target. Furthermore, when maintaining stacks of Astral Fire or Umbral Ice, a spell of the opposite element can be cast at no cost but will deal reduced damage.

Elemental gauge pve2.png Coming under the influence of Astral Fire or Umbral Ice will grant Enochian.png  Enochian, and set the lower-right corner of the gauge aglow, indicating its effect is active. Enochian increases the potency of magic attacks, as well as unlocks powerful spells such as Blizzard IV.png  Blizzard IV. Enochian fades when Astral Fire or Umbral Ice expires.
Elemental gauge pve3.png Casting Freeze.png  Freeze or Blizzard IV.png  Blizzard IV grants 3 Umbral Hearts which are represented by the arrows in the gauge's lower-left corner. An Umbral Heart is consumed each time a Fire spell is cast, nullifying the MP cost increase applied by the Astral Fire status.

When the crystal at the bottom of the Elemental Gauge glows pink, you will be under effect of Polyglot, which allows the spells Foul.png  Foul and Xenoglossy.png  Xenoglossy (acquired at level 80) to be cast, consuming a crystal.

If your element switches to the opposite element when under the effects of either Astral Fire or Umbral Ice and in possession of the maximum number of Umbral Hearts, the left side of the Paradox Gauge will light up. You will then be able to use Paradox.png  Paradox.
