Sometimes you get a bonus from a few weapon, sometimes you don't. But space whales can flood their grid in SSRs of a certain type, and possibly even pick a team where multiple Hime prefer the same type. This gives a ridiculous amount of bonus damage.


The best way to see the stat bonus in action is to mess around with Eidolons. Same element Eidolons are the preferred type, so you gain 10% extra stats from those. Try to take out a 1000 atk Eidolon and you'll see that your same element Hime will lose 1100 atk.
