Elemental Force Palm is a Health Skill Tree ability exclusive to Kliff. It allows you to imbue Force Palm with an element while using it, adding elemental damage to one of Kliff's core combat abilities. The infused Force Palm deals bonus elemental damage and can apply status effects based on the active element.

Upgrade Imbue Element to Level 3 to automatically gain Elemental Force Palm. You must first acquire at least one element (Flame, Frost, Lightning, or Wind) by completing Abyss Challenges at elemental Spires. These elements are progression-locked and become available around the middle of Chapter 4.
Kliff's full Imbue Element progression:
Level | Skill | Spirit Cost |
|---|---|---|
Lv.1 | 20 Spirit | |
Lv.2 | 30 Spirit | |
Lv.3 | 20 Spirit | |
Lv.4 | 20 Spirit |
The element applied depends on which imbuement you have selected through the Axiom Bracelet's radial menu. Each element adds different bonus properties:
Flame: Ignition effect, dealing damage over time. Effective for sustained pressure against tanky enemies.
Frost: Freezes enemies, halting their movement. Creates openings for follow-up combos.
Lightning: Stagger damage with electrical bursts. Builds stun gauge quickly on hit.
Wind: Knockback effect that pushes enemies away. Useful for crowd control.
Force Palm is one of Kliff's most versatile attacks. It serves as an offensive strike in combat, breaks enemy defense values, and can even be used three times mid-air to catapult yourself upward for fast climbing. Adding elemental damage on top makes it even more powerful.
At 20 Spirit per use, Elemental Force Palm is relatively affordable compared to Elemental Charged Shot (30 Spirit). This makes it practical to use frequently in sustained melee encounters.
Frost-imbued Force Palm is particularly strong against slow-moving bosses because the freeze effect locks them in place for follow-up attacks. Flame is better for fights where you need to keep moving, since the damage-over-time continues burning after you disengage.
Note that Elemental Force Palm is exclusive to Kliff. Damiane's Level 3 Imbue Element skill is Elemental Shield Toss instead, reflecting her different combat toolkit.
