are a key part of DragonVale. They are used in breeding, shrines, boosts, and habitats. There are nineteen |elements in total: ten primary and nine epic.

Breeding

 * Main article: Breeding

determine which egg will result. By breeding dragons with different |elements, the result will be a hybrid dragon, except in the case of the Air Dragon. (Air is not classifed as a hybrid, but is bred from two primary |element dragons).

Habitats

 * Main article: Habitats

Dragons can only live in habitats that share the same |elements as them. For example, a Plant Dragon can only live in a Plant Habitat, whereas a Tree Dragon can live in either a Plant Habitat or an Earth Habitat.
 * Gemstone Dragons can only live in the habitats on the Gemstone Island.

Shrines and Boosts

 * Main articles: Shrines and Boosts

Each primary |element has one Shrine (except for Light and Dark) and Boost. Epic |elements do not have either.
 * Hybrid Dragons count toward two or more shrines and can be positively boosted by two or more boosts.
