Elementals seem to be better than turncoat/insanity against creatures with high damage resistance. I find that high damage resistance creatures don't do much damage against each other, whereas an elemental will. However, as noted, elementals become much less effective when the level of the elemental is more than seven or eight levels less than the opponents (can't hit, get conditioned, are hit easily). I've even have elementals ignored by high level opponents, so you don't even get the distraction/meat shield bonus sometimes. Toward end-game, I find that canned elementals won't do much, and only spell power 6 or 7 elementals (I forget, greater and lord?) have occasionally been helpful.
