Elemental Schools, Strengths & Weaknesses
All 17 Elite elemental schools, live ability effects, intended weaknesses, and the upcoming elemental combat expansion.
Elemental Schools, Strengths & Weaknesses
RoosterMobs uses 17 elemental schools across its Elite and equipment systems. Every Elite school already has a live special ability.
Elemental Combat Expansion Coming
>
RoosterMobs already defines weakness relationships and configured weakness/resistance multipliers. In 4.3.5, the Elite abilities are live, but the full elemental damage multiplier matrix is not yet fully connected to player-vs-Elite damage calculations. An upcoming combat update is planned to activate and balance those relationships.
Elemental Schools
| Element | Active Elite Effect | Intended Weakness |
|---|---|---|
| Fire | Sets the player on fire; duration scales with tier | Frost |
| Void | Pulls the player toward the Elite; pull strength scales with tier | Tech |
| Frost | Applies strong Slowness for about 5 seconds | Fire |
| Earth | Deals direct damage and launches the player upward | Void |
| Tech | Applies strong Weakness for about 6 seconds | Earth |
| Static | Lightning effect plus tier-scaled direct damage | Earth |
| Blizzard | Extreme Slowness plus Weakness for about 4 seconds | Fire |
| Solar | Blindness for about 5 seconds plus fire | Frost |
| Lunar | Weakness plus Mining Fatigue for about 10 seconds | Tech |
| Poison | Applies Poison for about 7 seconds | Solar |
| Wither | Applies Wither for about 5 seconds | Lunar |
| Aero | Launches the player vertically | Earth |
| Hydro | Removes remaining air and applies Slowness | Fire |
| Magnetic | Strongly pulls the player toward the Elite | Tech |
| Chrono | Applies extreme Slowness for about 2 seconds | Void |
| Infernal | Long burn combined with Wither | Hydro |
| Plague | Applies Hunger and Nausea for about 15 seconds | Solar |
Configured Elemental Multipliers
| Interaction | Configured / Planned Modifier | 4.3.5 Status |
|---|---|---|
| Attack an elemental weakness | 1.5× damage | Coming |
| Matching/resisted elemental interaction | 0.5× damage | Coming |
These values describe the current RoosterMobs elemental design, but the 1.5× and 0.5× modifiers should not be treated as guaranteed live damage multipliers until the upcoming combat update connects them to the runtime damage calculation.
Elite Ability Timing
| Mechanic | Current Behavior |
|---|---|
| Ability pulse | Approximately every 30 ticks / 1.5 seconds |
| Telegraph | Roughly 1 second of warning before the effect |
| Range | 6 + (Tier × 0.16) blocks |
| T100 range | Approximately 22 blocks |
| Line of sight | Required for normal targeting |
Elite abilities are designed to give you time to react. When an Elite telegraphs an attack, move, create distance, or prepare for the element you are facing.
