Kazap: Difference between revisions

Among the strongest of spells and usually reserved only for the [[Hero]] (or [[Hero (Class)|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]].

The [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Hero]] 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.

Kazap is learned by [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|the Hero]] at level 35, and behaves identically to its Aliahan counterpart save for a reduced cost of 15 MP.

Kazap can only be learned by advancing to rank 4 of the [[Hero (Class)|Hero]] vocation and retains its damage and affect range from the previous game.

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

Kazap is learned by mastering [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|the Hero'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 the hero'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.

The [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Hero]] 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 hero's magical might surpasses 700.

Known as '''Thordain''' in this game, it is the fully upgraded form of the Bolt spell. Zap will evolve into Thordain when a monster 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]], [[Darkdrium]], [[MetalKing]], [[Mirudraas]], and [[WhiteKing]]. If the monster knows both Thordain and [[Lightning]], they can learn [[HellBlast]].

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)

* [[Sizz & Zap | Sizz & Zap II]] (57 points)

* [[Sizz & Zap | Sizz & Zap III]] (18 points)

* [[Über Zapologist]] (4 points)

Kazap costs 10 MP and deals 142~157 damage. Once the monster's wisdom rises above 250, the spell will grow in power until it deals 332~357 damage at 999 wisdom.

Kazap has the same parameters as in Joker 3.

===''[[Dragon Quest Tact]]''===

Kazap can be learned by [[Baran]] at level 40 and [[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.

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]].

===''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''===

Kazap appears as the [[Hero (Super Smash Bros.)|Hero]]'s side special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 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'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 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.
