Apparently Dark and Light’s elemental scene is so captivating, so rich, and so diverse that it requires a follow-up developer diary to fully cover this essential topic during the game’s alpha period.
All kidding aside, elementals are more than just another mob type in Dark and Light. Since players can eventually craft their own from the remnants of defeated foes, it’s important to know which type does what. For example, the stone elemental is ideal for guarding a base, while light elementals are the most powerful (and deadliest to attack) for an offensive partner.

This property makes keeping an Ice Imp around a major priority for any adventurer struck with wanderlust.”
