![]() ![]() ![]() To fight a storm elemental most effectively, a group should avoid grouping up for 4-target arc lightning strikes getting to close to the elemental if they aren’t melee combatants, but should also be careful not to let the elemental gather between all of them and suck them in with its vortex ability. Regardless of the environment, this elemental will challenge its opponents with its multiple ways of dealing area damage. When surrounded by dense fog, mist, or clouds, the storm elemental can benefit greatly from its massive electricity-based blindsight radius, striking enemies with its arc lightning to devastating effect before they even realize what’s hit them, and the open space gives it plenty of room to fly or swim away from its enemies. Of course they can also be found in the elemental’s native home, the elemental planes themselves. Many are encountered on the open sea or in the sky when traveling by airship, and some can even be found near the mountaintop lairs of powerful storm giants or ancient blue dragons. Storm elementals are usually found, unsurprisingly, inside of powerful rainstorms like thunderstorms, hurricanes, and monsoons. And of course it has the magic weapons trait, which the elementals in this compendium only gain if they are composed of three or four elements, giving them a potent advantage when fighting other weaker elementals.įights against storm elementals can be incredibly dangerous, especially when facing them in the wild rather than when summoned to a battlefield. Its myriad damage resistances and immunities also makes earth the most effective element to attack it with, since it resists fire and is immune to cold damage (common for hydromancers), as well as to lightning and thunder damage (common for aeromancers). The storm elemental is missing only earth, and so it has more difficulty damaging creatures in the earth. The tri-elementals are also each weak in some way to the one element that is missing from their composition. They also gain new aspects that weren't present in any of the single or dual elementals made from those elements, and for the storm elemental that takes the form of its thunder abilities and immunity to thunder damage. For the storm elemental, that means primarily Lightning (air/fire) and Fog (air/water), with a little bit of the pressure-power of Steam (fire/water). One way to think of the these elementals is as a combination of the dual elementals made from their three elements. ![]() The storm elemental shares many interesting design facets with the other tri-elementals. ![]() Most elementals are harmed by extended exposure to the other elemental planes, but surviving in one can lead a dual elemental to grow stronger as it fuses with this new third element and is reborn as a more powerful tri-elemental.

Tri-elementals, like this storm elemental previewed today, are as much defined by the one element they’re missing as the three they have, and are usually born when a dual elemental (in this case, probably a lightning elemental or fog elemental, both also appearing in The Elements & Beyond alongside the storm elemental) makes its way to a third elemental plane.
