Summary

The Elemental is one of the special infected in R2D. All Elementals appear in ice or fire-form. The Elemental can be purchased for 145$ and the kill reward is 30$

The Elemental is a beast that has two different forms: one being an ice-form, and the other being a fire-form. While in ice-form, your primary ability is to freeze players for a long time, hence making players very vulnerable to zombies, such as the Hunter, Cavebat and Tank. Ice-form Elementals can also be used to effectively to fling players off the map by doing an Ice Drop. Upon touch by the ice-form, you are instantly frozen. While in fire-form, your primary ability is to deal damage. Although not being able to freeze players, you can deal a heck load of damage to unsuspecting survivors by shooting a Fire Spit at them, and better yet, with a well placed Fire Drop, you can get amount your kills... That is if the survivors aren't wearing Fireproof Vests. Upon touch players are afflicted a burn status. You can also do devastating combos by freezing a player, then transforming into the fire-form to constantly burn the frozen player until death. Overall, this zombie is a beast. Do not mess around with one...
