Guide
As has gradually become more common knowledge, EC characters all have affinities when it comes to magic. Some characters will be very good with one element, and total garbage with another.

With that in mind, I decided to throw together this guide as a simple reference of those affinities. The affinities themselves can be one of six different values, as follows:

Impossible -> Worst -> Bad -> Normal -> Good -> Best

And the actual number values associated are:

-90 -> -50 -> -25 -> 0 -> 10 -> 20

So as you can see, when an affinity is bad, it is VERY bad, but even the best affinity is only going to give you a fairly minor bonus. If you're dedicated to min-maxing, you might only care about giving characters runs that match their 'best' affinity, but in general, you really just want to avoid 'bad' or 'worst' affinities.

Going forward in the guide, the affinities will be represented as such:

Best: ++
Good: +
Normal: =
Bad: -
Worst: --
Impossible: X

If you have any feedback at all, or notice anything in the guide that is missing or incorrect, please don't hesitate to drop a comment letting me know so I can fix it!

Note that everybody also technically has a 'plain' affinity, but it's normal for everybody, so I just left it out altogether.

Edit - 5/26 - It's been brought to my attention that the magic system has yet another weird quirk. Apparently, the below affinities really only apply to a very specific subset of spells. Namely, spells that don't scale with Magic Power (most spells, frankly) and spells that aren't flat percentage effects (most healing magic). The spells that are actually worthwhile in late game, the ones that actually scale off the caster's magic power, appear to not care one iota about caster's affinity.

this is great, thank you!

it's weird how many game mechanics are simply unstated in this game, like you're supposed to intuit that low damage is due to one character's invisible elemental affinities rather than enemy resistances, stats, or one of the also-unstated status effects characters might have active.

whether or not we should need this guide in the first place, I'm glad we have it and appreciate your formatting!
