"Normal" elemental slayers have a multiplier of 2.5-2.75x at max rank (or 4.2x if they're Lykos or 5x if they're hallowed!Sophie), which is nowhere near strong enough to be worth it over comboers, who have a 2.3x multiplier after a combo of 3. The damage you lose out on is negligible compared to an elemental slayer and it works against all elements. Also, most quests have more off-colour fodder than on-colour fodder. Also, in most quests nowadays, the on-colour fodder will have less HP than the off-colour fodder, which means that even if you have every single spirit except your elemental slayer target an off-colour fodder with the elemental slayer targetting the on-colour fodder, after 1-3, usually 1-2, rounds, the on-colour fodder will die, leaving your elemental slayer without a multiplier.

Meanwhile, every single battle in the Lunatic Gauntlet features 1 thunder spirit and with creative targeting, overall, the extra damage Pernilla inflicts far outweighs the few rounds where she doesn't have a multiplier and that's with an OP team which forces its way through the quest in less than 20 turns. Less overpowered decks will need more turns to clear each round, which means Pernilla will basically always get a multiplier except in the final few rounds of the boss battle.

Also, again basically, what you're saying is that any event quest that's 5-6 star should recommend perfect elucidators in the deck recommendation section. So... why not tack on emblemers, too? Since the longer a quest takes, the more you're likely to run into spots where you run out of emblems, even with some 3-5 boosts. So, let's add that. Next, why not add nukers, shavers and poisoners? The list will be endless if we're going to tack on anything under the sun that might be useful to a quest. It is astounding to me you're dismissing Pernilla entirely except for her Special Skill heal while refusing to let the Perfect Elucidation-thing go.

I'm not going to fight you on the Perfect Elucidation-thing (as if people can't figure that out on their own. "Oh, spirits who tell you the answer outright can be used on tri-colours you do not know the answer to? Who knew?!"), even though it just serves to add more clutter to that section, because that'll just turn this into an edit war.
