Type Effectiveness Explained: Hit the Right Type for 2× Damage

How Type Matchups Work

In Roco Kingdom: World, every skill belongs to one of 18 elemental types. Hitting an enemy with a type they're weak to deals 2× damage. Hitting one they resist deals 0.5× damage.

Type matchups are the single most important combat mechanic — more impactful than raw level differences.

Common Matchups (Quick Reference)

• Water beats Fire, Fire beats Grass, Grass beats Water (the classic triangle)
• Flying beats Bug, Grass; Electric beats Water, Flying
• Ground beats Fire, Electric; Ice beats Dragon, Grass, Flying
• Fighting beats Normal, Ice; Ghost beats Ghost
• Dark beats Ghost, Psychic; Psychic beats Fighting, Poison

Dual-Type Spirits

Some spirits have two types. Damage taken stacks:

• If both types are weak → 4× damage (very dangerous!)
• If one is weak and the other resists → returns to 1× (neutral)

Practical Tips

• Build a team that covers multiple offensive types in skill choices.
• When stuck on a stage, check the enemy's type before adjusting your lineup.
• Don't run a mono-type team — you'll get walled by anything that resists your one element.
