'''Kacrack''' is a spell in the {{DQSeries}}. It pierces all enemies with ice damage. Kacrack was removed from the series' spell pool in ''Dragon Quest V'', due to [[Kacrackle]]'s target range being increased to effect all enemies. The spell would not return until ''Dragon Quest IX''. It is also related to the spells [[Crack]] and [[Crackle]].

'''Kacrack''' is a spell in the {{DQSeries}}. It pierces all enemies with ice damage.

==Localization history==

The ~~Japanese~~ spell ''~~Hyadain~~'' ~~originally appeared~~ in ~~the third and fourth games~~. In the ~~Japanese version~~ of ~~the games, ''Hyadain'''s position as the second strongest ice spell would eventually be taken by ''Mahyado'' and~~ a ~~stronger~~ spell ~~named~~ ''~~Mahyadedosu~~'' ~~was introduced in the ''Monsters: Joker'' series of games~~, ~~eventually being introduced in~~ the ~~main series starting with ''Dragon Quest IX''. In the English versions of the games,~~ Kacrackle ~~continued to be~~ used ~~as the name of the strongest ice spell even though a new~~ spell ~~had been introduced~~, while Kacrack ~~would be used as the new English name for ''Mahyado''~~. ~~In Japan~~, ''Hyadain'' ~~returned in a handful~~ of ~~spinoff appearances~~, ~~such as ''The Adventure of Dai'', ''Torneko: The Last Hope'', and ''Dragon Quest Walk''.~~

The spell named マヒャド ''Mahyado'' in Japanese used to be called [[Kacrackle]]. Since then, with the arrival of a next tier Crack spell - マヒャドデス ''Mahyadodesu'' -, the name Kacrackle was used for that spell instead, while this one was renamed Kacrack.

Additionally, mostly on numbered games until {{DQ4}}, there was the spell ヒャダイン ''Hyadain'' that was also named Kacrack. For uses of that specific spell, see [[Kacrack (Hyadain)]]

==Appearances==

==={{DQ3}}===

~~Kacrack~~ is learned by [[Mage]]s & [[Sage]]s at ~~Level 32~~ in the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|original ~~release~~]] due to a ~~glitch. It costs 9 MP~~ and ~~hits~~ all ~~enemies for 60~~~80 points of damage~~. In the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super Famicom]] remake~~ and ~~its~~ [[~~Game Boy~~]] ~~Color port, the glitch has been corrected and the spell is learned at Level 26~~. In the NES version of Dragon Warrior III, it is called ~~IceSpears~~, while in the Game Boy version it is called ~~BlizMost~~.

Kacrackle is learned by [[Mage]]s and [[Sage]]s at level 26 in the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|original version]] due to a programming bug, and at level 32 in all subsequent remakes. Deals between 88~112 points of damage and costs 12 {{MP}} to cast, paralleling [[Kasizzle]]. In the {{NES}} version of {{Dragon Warrior III}}, it is called Snowstorm, while in the [[Game Boy]] version it is called Blizzard.

The enemies [[Leger-de-Man]], [[franticore]], [[manticore]], [[WhiteLion]], and [[Zoma]] can use this spell to deal 55~67 damage to the {{Party 3}}.

==={{DQ3HD}}===

Kacrackle is learned by Mages and Sages at level 34 if their wisdom exceeds 158 points. Kacrackle costs 14 MP and deals up to 119~161 damage to all enemies. As with all multi-targeting attack spells Kacrackle's power is increased if it is used against a smaller number of foes, being 130% damage against a single monster, 120% against two monsters, and 110% damage when used on three monsters.

When cast by monsters Kacrackle will deal 88~116 damage to the party.

==={{DQ4}}===

~~Kacrack~~ is learned by [[Borya]] at ~~Level 27 and deals 60~80 damage to all enemies for 8 MP~~. In the NES version of ''Dragon Warrior IV'', it is ~~called IceSpears~~.

Kacrackle damages a group of foes for 88~112 damage, and costs 11 {{MP}} to cast. It is learned by [[Borya]] at level 32. The {{Psaro 9}} starts out with this spell upon joining. In the {{NES}} version of {{Dragon Warrior IV}}, it is called Blizzard; instead, the name Snowstorm was given to [[Crackle]].

The enemies [[freeze fly]], [[abullddon]], and [[Aamon]] can use this spell against the {{Party 4}} fro 55~67 damage.

==={{DQ5}}===

Due to the removal of [[Kacrack]] from the spell list, Kacrackle's range has been increased to target all foes on screen. In exchange, the damage range has been reduced slightly to 80~104. It is learned by the following playable characters and costs 12 {{MP}} to cast.
