In Crimson Desert you can unlock 4 Elemental Skills in the red skill tree: Frost Mantle, Flame Strike, Storm Veil, Lightning Surge. Once you have them unlocked you can also upgrade the “Imbue Element” skill to buff other attacks. However, the game never tells you how to obtain those elements, only when you hover over the skills it says that learning the elements is a prerequisite.
All Elements are unlocked by restoring Abysses (flying sky islands). Each Abyss has one puzzle that must be solved to restore power to the Abyss.
For All Abysses refer to our Crimson Desert Abyss Puzzle Guide. To access them you also need to solve the Spires, which are the entry points to the Abysses. So these require a bunch of work first.
Here are the 4 specific Abysses that unlock Elemental Skills:
- Frost = Path of Trials
- Flame = Tree of Slumber
- Wind = Riddle Square
- Lightning = Courtyard of Precision
