Wild Hearts Elements Guide
Now, let’s move on to the guide
Wild Hearts Element Types
- Wood
- Fire
- Water
- Wind
- Earth
Wild Hearts Elemental Weapons
You can craft weapons that wield the power of an element! Every Kemono has elemental strengths and vulnerabilities – so choose your weapon wisely. The great thing about Wild Hearts is that you can create multiple weapons. This means you can test out the different types of weapons, with different types of elements.
For example, if a Kemono is particularly weak to the element of fire, we recommend crafting a weapon that wields elemental fire damage. However, if a Kemono is strong against fire, it’s best to avoid a weapon that is infused with the element of fire.
If you wish to use higher-level elements for your weapons, you need to progress through the weapon tree – you can open up new weapon slots!
