Greater Elemental Spirits Guide

Effect boundary

The verified description is: Makes Summon Elemental Spirits identify concentrated Anima Vents. Do not extend that description to unrelated weapons, materials, stations or skill actions. Confirm the installed build and the exact tooltip before copying a route recorded during an older Early Access patch.

Where the listing provides a number, this page repeats it as a dated value rather than a permanent promise; later balance changes can alter percentages and weight reductions.

When to prioritise it

Prioritise Greater Elemental Spirits when the affected action is a repeated constraint in the next two or three sessions. Carry-weight perks matter most on long gathering returns; preservation and efficiency perks matter when inputs are scarce; timing perks matter only when the player can reproduce their trigger.

1. Name the route bottleneck.
2. Measure one short run without the perk.
3. Repeat the same route with the perk active.
4. Compare time, supplies, inventory pressure and failures.

Synergy without overclaiming

Pair this perk with equipment and food that support the same job, but change one variable at a time. A stronger result after replacing armour, food and a perk together cannot be attributed to Greater Elemental Spirits. In co-op, decide whether the effect is personal or shared before assuming one player’s unlock benefits the group.

A good synergy removes friction from a real loop; a bad one merely stacks several bonuses that never affect the current objective.

Verification checklist

• Check the perk is unlocked and active in the live Skills interface.
• Test the exact action named in the description.
• Keep the compared route, gear and food constant.
• Confirm the version after a major combat, movement or economy patch.
• Do not infer hidden probabilities from a small sample.
