Among the strongest of spells and usually reserved only for the [[Hero]] (or [[Hero (vocation)|Hero class]]), '''Kazap''' is a spell that smites fiends with holy [[lightning]].

Starting with {{Dragon Quest V}}, it targets a single group of enemies. It is related to the weaker spells [[Zap]] and [[Zapple]], as well as the ultimate Lightning spell [[Kazapple]].

==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
The {{Hero 3}} learns it at level 41. The spell deals between 175 and 225 points of damage to all enemies for 30 {{MP}}. The [[Rubiss sword]], which is exclusive to the {{GBC}} version, has the effect of the spell when used as an item in battle and can be used by anyone in the {{Party 3}}.

==={{DQ4}}===
Kazap is learned by the {{Hero 4}} at level 35, and behaves identically to its [[Aliahan]] counterpart save for a reduced cost of 15 {{MP}}.

==={{DQ5}}===
Kazap deals the same range of damage as before, but is now limited to striking a single group of foes, and is also learned by a broader variety of companions.

==={{DQ6}}===
Kazap can only be learned by advancing to rank 4 of the {{Hero V}} vocation and retains its damage and affect range from the previous game.

It is also used by [[Nokturnus]].

==={{DQ7}}===
Kazap is acquired by becoming a rank 6 {{Hero V}} in the original {{PS1}} version, and 5 in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake. It may also be learned by reaching the seventh rank of the [[Galumph (vocation)|Galumph]] {{MFamilies}} vocation. If behaves as it did in the previous two games.

It can be cast by the enemies [[pip fighter]] and [[kernel colonel]], but Pip fighters end up electrifying themselves with it.

==={{DQ8}}===
Kazap is learned by mastering {{Eight}}'s Courage skill (100 points). As with nearly all spells in this installment, Kazap's initial damage range has been lowered to deal between 100 and 140 (until his {{Wisdom}} surpasses 168), but will deal 180~220 once the protagonist's {{Wisdom}} score reaches 400. Because {{Eight}}'s natural {{Wisdom}} caps at 366, he will need to make use of brain-boosting accessories and the scant few seeds of {{Wisdom}} available.
*In the {{3DS}} version, Kazap's base range has been increased to 108~148 and the upper limit to 208~248. This new limit requires his {{Wisdom}} to hit 440.

==={{DQ11}}===
The {{Luminary}} will learn Kazap upon becoming truly lionhearted through the {{Luminary}} skill tree. The spell costs an exorbitant 48 {{MP}} to cast, but will deal 335~385 base damage to a groups of enemies and reach a zenith of 695~745 once the {{Luminary}}'s {{Magical Might}} surpasses 350.

==={{DQM}}===
Known as '''Thordain''' in this game, it is the fully upgraded form of the Bolt spell. [[Zap]] will evolve into Thordain when a {{MFamilies}} reaches at least level 30 with 128 max {{MP}} and 174 {{Intelligence}}. It inflicts 175~225 [[Lightning]] damage for 15 {{MP}}. It can be learned naturally by [[Balzack]], [[Nokturnus|Darkdrium]], [[Metal king slime|MetalKing]], [[Nimzo|Mirudraas]], and [[Wight king (Dragon Quest V)|WhiteKing]]. If the {{MFamilies}} knows both Thordain and [[Lightning]], they can learn [[Lightning Storm|HellBlast]].

==={{DQMJ}}===
Kazap costs 10 {{MP}} to cast and will deal up to 340~360 damage. It can be learned from several skill trees:
*[[Bang & Zap|Bang & Zap II]] (40 points)
*[[Bang & Zap|Bang & Zap III]] (7 points)
*[[Cleric (skill)|Cleric]] (30 points)
*[[Crusader]] (80 points)
*[[Dragovian Lord (skill)|Dragovian Lord]] (23 points)
*[[Frizz & Zap|Frizz & Zap II]] (57 points)
*[[Frizz & Zap|Frizz & Zap III]] (18 points)
*[[Über Blessed Blizzardier]] (8 points)
*[[Woosh & Zap|Woosh & Zap II]] (62 points)
*[[Woosh & Zap|Woosh & Zap III]] (15 points)
*[[Wulfspade (Skill)|Wulfspade II]] (60 points)

==={{DQMJ2}}===
Kazap deals 147~161 base damage and 353~367 maximum damage. It can be learned from all the skills it could be previously, as well as:
*[[Sizz & Zap|Sizz & Zap II]] (57 points)
*[[Sizz & Zap|Sizz & Zap III]] (18 points)
*[[Über Zapologist]] (4 points)

===''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry's Wonderland 3D|Terry's Wonderland 3D]]'' & ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters 2: Iru and Luca's Marvelous Mysterious Key|Iru and Luca's Marvelous Mysterious Key]]''===
Kazap costs 10 {{MP}} and deals 142~157 damage. Once the {{MFamilies}}'s {{Wisdom}} rises above 250, the spell will grow in power until it deals 332~357 damage at 999 {{Wisdom}}.

==={{DQMJ3}}===
Kazap has the same properties as in the previous two games.

==={{DQM3}}===
Kazap costs 23 MP and is learned via the [[Charge Leader]], [[Hardliner]], [[Nokturnus (Talent)|Nokturnus]], [[Polariser]], [[Sovereign]], and [[Zap Virtuoso]] talents. It has a base power of 110 and will deal an average of 230 damage at 999 wisdom.

==={{DQTreasures}}===
Kazap deals incredible Electric-element damage to all enemies within an area, potentially striking one enemy multiple times. It costs 22 {{MP}} and is learned by [[fiery dragling]]s, [[jade slime]]s, [[red giant]]s, [[she-slime]]s, and [[Elys]].

==={{DQTact}}===
Kazap can be learned by [[Baran]] at level 40 and [[Princess of Moonbrooke|Peronel]] at level 56 and costs 120 {{MP}} to cast. It has a range of three squares away from the user and deals major [[Zap]]-type spell damage to all enemies in a range of three squares horizontally. Upgrading the spell increases its damage and reduces the amount of {{MP}} it costs to cast.

==={{SSB5}}===
Kazap appears as the {{Hero Smash}}'s side special move in {{Smash Ultimate}}, requiring the player to charge [[Zap]] into [[Zapple]] before being able to cast Kazap for 42 {{MP}}. It is an electrical attack that calls down a wide bolt onto the {{Hero Smash}}'s sword, who then performs a spinning slash with a wide range around his person. The spell hits up to four times if the opponent is within range, with the first hit dealing 4%, the second 6%, the third 12%, and the final 16% for a combined total of 38%. Kazap has excellent knockback, K.O.ing enemies from the center of a flat stage as low as 60%.

In addition, the spell grants the {{Hero Smash}} invincibility frames during it's animation, and has deceptively low ending-lag once it is complete, serving as a hail mary if the player is in a bind and their shield has already been reduced.

==Enemy versions==
[[Nokturnus]] was the first {{MFamilies}} to ever cast Kazap, and he brought down the full fury of the storm. Like it's predecessor, Kazap will deal full damage when cast by foes and as such utmost caution must be exercised during electric encounters--very few pieces of equipment can dampen the spell's colossal current.
