 ##### Phials
 Certain weapons, such as the Switch Axe, make use of elemental phials to store magical energy. Energy that is stored in a phial is converted into one of several damage types:

* Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, Poison, or Thunder.

When you deal phial damage with such a weapon, it will be damage of whichever type the equipped phials have.
