Defending by Element
A dragon can contain 1 or more elements. The first element is marked as its primary element and will be used to mark additional weaknesses, resistance and immunity against incoming attacks. All other elements are marked as secondary and don't have an additional use outside expanding the variation in his learnset (in most cases). Below you will see an overview from the primary element defense rate:

NOTE: We've found on some elements, their immunity (NO DAMAGE) is not working properly (receive 1x damage instead of 0x).

Attacks on Element
Every dragon can hold 4 attacks. Every attack is associated with an element. The attack will have critical (double damage), not effective (no damage) or ineffective (half damage) damage to a dragon. Below you will see an overview from the attack rate against the primary element of a dragon: NOTE: We've found on some elements, their not effective (NO DAMAGE) is not working properly (deal 1x damage instead of 0x).

New Element
As part of the Dungeon Island event, an element unknown at that time was used against the Cerberus Dragon and Demon Dragon. The only known dragon with this element was the Archangel Dragon until the Light and War update. While the Archangel Dragon was briefly playable during the event, it could not be owned/bred and very little was known about it until the update.

It was released by SP (26 July 2013) that the unknown Element is called Light. See Light and War update.

Trivia

 * Some elements originally had other names:
 * Earth = Terra
 * Fire = Flame
 * Water = Sea
 * Plant = Nature


 * Both ice and dark were originally bonus elements. Ice seems to be a hold end element with a purpose to be a modifier when, for example, new elements get added.
