This page is about the support gem. For the passive skill, see Elemental Focus (passive skill).

Elemental Focus is a support gem. It multiplies the elemental damage of linked skills, at the cost of them being unable to apply elemental status ailments.

This drawback makes it more difficult to trigger certain effects requiring ailments, forcing the player to lose some of their stats or require the application of ailments through other means, such as Summon SkitterbotsSummon SkitterbotsTrap, Mine, Spell, Minion, Cold, Lightning, AoE, Aura
