'''Kazam''' is a spell in the ~~[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]~~ series. It ~~damages~~ a ~~target with dark energy~~.

'''Kazam''' is a spell in the series. It inflicts a heavy amount of Dark-elemental damage to a single enemy.

==Appearances==

===[[Dragon Quest IX]]===

==={{DQ9}}===

Kazam is ~~available only~~ to [[~~Sage~~]]s at level 43. It costs ~~20 MP~~ to cast.

Kazam is learned by [[Sage|Sages]] at level 43, costing 20 MP to cast. It inflicts 120~180 Dark-elemental damage to a single enemy. It increases in power once the caster's {{Magical Might}} reaches 400, reaching to a maximum of 315~375 damage at 999 Magical Might.

*On the enemy side, it can be cast by [[Fowleye]], [[Tyrannosaurus Wrecks]], [[Psaro the Manslayer]], and [[Dhoulmagus]]. Both Psaro and Dhoulmagus will stop casting Kazam once they have reached level 41.

}}

==={{DQ10}}===

Sages and [[Demon Swordsman|Demon swordsmen]] will learn Kazam upon reaching level 64, and it costs 14 MP to cast. Damage is calculated as ''(Magical Might - 340) × 0.39 +155~169'' for a base range of 156~168 and a maximum range of 340~354. When the caster's Magical Might exceeds 999 then the calculation is modified to ''(Magical might - 999) /4 + 414~428'' for a limit of 539-553 achieved through liberal application of buff effects.

==={{DQ11}}===

[[Rab]] will learn Kazam at level 52. It costs 18 MP and has a base range of 132~156, capping at 254～278 when Rab reaches 323 magical might. The level requirement for Kazam is much lower than that of [[Kafrizz]], but this is balanced out by [[Veronica (Dragon Quest XI)|Veronica]] leveling up much faster than the wheezened wizard. As with all darkness spells, the haywire chance is twice as high with Kazam compared to other spells.

==={{DQMJ}}===

Kazam requires 10 MP to cast, deals a maximum of 321~375,and can be learned from:

* [[Bang & Zam | Bang & Zam II]] (43 points)

* [[Bang & Zam | Bang & Zam III]] (7 points)

* [[Crack & Zam | Crack & Zam II]] (62 points)

* [[Crack & Zam | Crack & Zam III]] (15 points)

* [[Cursader]] (35 points)

* [[Estark (skill) | Estark]] (43 points)

* [[Frizz & Zam | Frizz & Zam II]] (44 points)

* [[Frizz & Zam | Frizz & Zam III]] (16 points)

* [[Mortamor (skill) | Mortamor]] (70 points)

* [[Niflheim]] (100 points)

* [[Über Dark Dynamiter]] (8 points)

* [[Woosh & Zam | Woosh & Zam II]] (62 points)

* [[Woosh & Zam | Woosh & Zam III]] (15 points)

==={{DQMJ2}}===

Kazam deals a minimum of 142~156 damage and up to 350~362. It can no longer be learned from [[Cursader]]. It can now be learned from:

* [[Sizz & Zam | Sizz & Zam II]] (44 points)

* [[Sizz & Zam | Sizz & Zam III]] (16 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]]''===

Kazam costs 10 MP and deals 147~162 damage. Upon reaching a wisdom state of 999, the spell will deal 327~362 damage.

==={{DQMJ3}}===

Kazam has the same MP cost and damage ranges as in the previous two games.

==={{DQM3}}===

Kazam costs 10 MP and is learned through the [[Agent Provocateur]], [[Dark Horse]], [[Demoniac]], [[Impactor]], [[Pyrotechnician]], and [[Zam Virtuoso]] talents. It has a base power of 155 and will deal an average of 345 damage at 999 Wisdom.

==={{DQH}}===

{{Descriptions

|DQH=Damages enemies over a wide area with an eldritch explosion.<ref>Sony PlayStation 4 and Steam versions.</ref>

}}

Kazam is the second tier spell of [[Psaro (Character)|Psaro]], skipping over Zammle in this game, and can be learned by investing 8 skill points. After charging his [[Zam]] spell for a short time, Psaro will plant his sword into ground and unleashes a wide shockwave of dark lightning in front of him for 14 MP. It has a slight gravitational pull, attempting to bring any nearby targets closer to the center of the explosion.

*Psaro also casts Kazam against the party when he is faced as a boss during Quest #90: "A Monstrous Apparition". He will telegraph the attack when he plants his sword into the ground, while an orb of dark energy charges in front of him and a red magic circle surrounds Psaro. It takes a few seconds to charge and Psaro is stationary while he is casting it, giving players an opportunity to land a few hits on him or move out of the way of its blast radius.

==={{DQTreasures}}===

Kazam launches an enormous blast of evil energy that homes in on the nearest target, dealing severe Dark-element damage. It costs 18 MP to cast and is learned by [[Dracky|Drackies]], [[Shadow minister]]s, [[Sham hamwitch]]s, and [[Umbra]]s.

==={{DQTact}}===

Kazam can be learned by [[Valencia#Dragon_Quest_Tact|Spooky Valencia]] at level 31 as well as [[Vendor ghost]] through Talent Blossoming, and costs 72 MP to cast. It has a range of three squares away from the caster in any direction and inflicts major Zam-type spell damage to a single enemy. Upgrading the spell increases its damage and reduces the amount of MP it costs to cast.

==Trivia==

Because [[~~Kasizzle~~]] is not present in ''Dragon Quest IX'', the legacy bosses that originally cast that spell ([[Dhoulmagus]] and [[Psaro the Manslayer|Psaro]]) were outfitted with Kazam instead.
