An Elemental Augment refers to the many different ways in which weapon-based Copy Abilities can be enchanted in Kirby Star Allies. There are five different types of augments which can be applied; Blizzard, Bluster, Sizzle, Splash, and Zap. These elements are applied by having the ally wielding the weapon hold it up, then having the element-wielding ally use an elemental attack on the weapon to power it up. This augment then remains on the weapon indefinitely, only being lost if the ability is discarded or the wielder defeated (not just fainted). Applying an element to a weapon allows the user to perform more elaborate attacks, and often adds special properties in addition to raising the damage dealt. One example is 'Bluster Bomb', which allows the user to float up into the air while holding the bomb in hand.
Augments and Sources
There are five elemental augments in Kirby Star Allies. These can be applied to weapons using various Copy Abilities, from certain specific moves, or from other weapons which already have the augment. The following table lists every known source for each augment, as well as the general character of the augment in question:
Augments in Kirby Star Allies | ||

Augment | Granted by | Characteristic |
Blizzard | Ice, Blizzard-enchanted weapon | Gives weapons an icy quality to them, allowing them to freeze foes with strikes. |
Bluster | Cleaning, Wing, Bluster-enchanted weapon, Coo's Parasol attack | Gives weapons a windy characteristic, often allowing the wielder to fly while attacking. |
Sizzle | Fire, Sizzle-enchanted weapon, Burning Gooey, Rick's Fire Breath | Gives weapons a fiery characteristic, allowing them to leave smoldering pyres in several cases. |
Splash | Parasol, Water, Clean Pitch, Splash-enchanted weapon, Gooey's tongue attacks, Kine's Fish Flop | Gives weapons a water enchantment, which allows them to douse flames and destroy Electro Saws. |
Zap | Beam, ESP, Plasma, Zap-enchanted weapon | Gives weapons an electric enchantment, which allows them to electrify water and power Wires. |
