“	Attacks deal Arts damage, and can inflict Elemental damage.	”
	—Trait description

Primal Caster is a branch of the Caster class in Arknights.

Primal Casters are identical to Core Casters down to their stats, but differs in that they can inflict Elemental damage on enemies with their skills and/or talents as well, usually against enemies under Elemental Injury burst effects.

Strategies

• Many of their skills cannot inflict Elemental Injury on their own, and are instead reliant on the enemy already being under the burst effect to deal Elemental damage, as such they should be paired with other Operators capable of inflicting Elemental Injury for them, notably Ritualist Supporters.
• Owing to the fact that their Elemental Injury is a specific type, and when one type bursts it removes the buildup of other types, it's not advisable to use them alongside another Primal Caster/a Ritualist Supporter with Elemental Injury that doesn't match theirs e.g. using Virtuosa with Warmy.
