Is there any VN using the Five Elements as their

That is the india 's Classification.

Greek system is good enough that we still use it today.
Only difference is we call them states of matter.
Air = Gas
Water = Liquid
Earth = Solid
Fire = Plasma

Wood fails.

F/SN uses both, doesn't it?

Patchy uses "wood" as a element, wood-haters.

Pretty much. Each system uses it's own classifications after all.

>Patchouli's magic based on elements of Wood, Fire, Metal, Water, and Earth. In Chinese signs of the Zodiac there are five beasts: Azure Dragon, Red Bird, White Tiger, Black Turtle and Yellow Dragon. Each of the five beasts refer to same elements Patchouli use: Azure Dragon - Wood, Red Bird - Fire, White Tiger - Metal, Black Turtle - Water and Yellow Dragon - Earth.
this is on "fun facts" on the wikia.

>As she is a magician, she uses magic often. Her specialty is elemental magic employing the seven elements Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Metal, Sun and Moon. In addition, she can combine the elements as well.
and this is from PMiSS

Patchy also uses "Moon" and "Sun elements, at the very least in SWR. They're not exactly primary elements.
Pic related. Moon Metal Sign "Sunshine Reflector"
She also has Sun Wood Sign "Photosynthesis"

>> No.5837876

>>5837815
Going by SWR, she has five different element skills and three for each one. Wood is not one of them. 236=fire 214=metal 623=wind 421=earth 22=water

I just realized that 10 of Patchy's spellcards are a combination of elements. Moon Wood Sign etc.

I gotta say it.

I like asymmetrical elemental dominance systems rather than RPS (or RPSSL) and "lol fire and water do double damage to each other" systems.

I like RO's element system the best.

>> No.5838072

I prefer lifeforce for a magic system myself.

One of the dungeons and dragons campaign had you sitting over a world completely drained and fucked by extreme magic usage for a global war.

The atmosphere was so clogged with dead spirits and objects that spirits refused to move on after death since they would be torn apart, and instead walked as undead. Also a high level spell kills something still alive in that world, so dragons could instakill people with mana sapping for spell fuel.

Well, if you lump things together enough, you could also say that METAL = EARTH as well, bringing it down to RPS.

Oh, whoops, Verification just came back as soon as I tried to post this.
