No points on Elements since they are broken and make no difference.
(Anyone who says otherwise has not tested it)
sure they do. Nothing monumental of course but it's a little silly to not put any points into any of them. What harm are you doing if you put points in them? Not very smart to say something just for the sake of saying something and then hoping that no one else knows what you are talking about. There are lots of tests that have been done and that are floating around on these forums that show that they actually do work. I notice it personally on things like my elemental weapon skills, crafting, and being able to control which shards/crystals I farm up while gathering. It supposedly works for defensive matters as well. Even if the difference is tiny, a tiny difference is better then none.
