# Elements - FOLK Wiki

> Which element beats which.

Every Folk and every spell has one of the elements. Using the right spell on the right Folk makes a big difference.

## How it works

- What counts is the element of your spell against the element of the Folk you hit.
- A good match does up to 2× damage. A bad one can drop to 0.5×.
- Your Folk hits 20% harder with a spell of its own element.
- In a fight, a strong match shows "SUPER EFFECTIVE!" or "VERY EFFECTIVE" under the damage, and a weak one "NOT EFFECTIVE".
- Wild Folks close to you show a green arrow when your Folk's strongest spell has the edge on them, and a red one when theirs has the edge on your Folk.
