Yeah, the other elements, Water and Ice in particular, could use some more love, since there's barely any monsters (returning ones included) in the game that use them, and that basically forces you to stick to a select few weapons if you want to use the elements, regardless of the weapons' quality, which makes them too specialized in my opinion. But like others have said before, DLC can change that, so here's hoping that they bring in more monsters that utilize the more underused elements.
