===== Notes ===== * [[dmc2:trish|Trish]] does not generate Electro or Flame heart effects, however the damage to the enemy weakness still applies. [(DMC2 Official Complete Guide (2003): Tankobon Hardcover. Chapter 2, System; p. 66 - 68.)] * There are certain moves from [[dmc2:dante|Dante]] and [[dmc2:lucia|Lucia]] such as: Death Pierce's ender does not generate any elemental effects * Hearts have no effect on Majin as [[dmc2:dante|Dante]] can fly without Aerial Heart during that form. * Flame Heart is the Strongest Attribute in the game, however it absorbs the DT dramatically. Especially with the recent HD Collection bug which somehow interacts all enviroments when you hit enemies with [[dmc2:dante|Dante's]] Round Trip. * DT without Quick Heart does not increase attack speed. * Quick Heart is used regularly in **New Game+** * Electro Heart consumes The least DT gauge out of all three. * Offence Heart is +20% damage to DT damage.
