I don't really see any data samples, are you sure the effect isn't just being resisted because elementals have an innate resistance towards debuffs that are normally considered under their spell set? because even though physical stun spells don't have an elemental affinity they don't work on thunder elementals/ramuh, disseverment's/feather storm's poison effect won't land on water eles/levithan, and so on for physical spells. for magical spells it's no different, but I'm less inclined to assume that it means the additional effect is aligned to a completely different element, I'd sooner believe that they had no elemental affinity at all.
I'm just saying it's not the best idea to use elementals for such testing, just because of the fact they'll resist any debuffs that are normally under their elemental spell set no matter the true affinity of what's being used.
note: don't always trust wiki's info (on the matter of jettatura), there's no evidence to back this claim up, but I'd possibly believe it if there was data considering that earth is affiliated with darkess.
edit: terror seems to be an earth based ability, so it's only natural that it would be resisted by earth elementals.

No evidence for Jettatura, hasn't been on my to-do list since I never use it outside of tanking anyway. Will check next time I'm around Dark Elementals though.
