'''Kazapstrophe''' is a fourth tier of Lightning spells in the series, introduced in the ''Joker'' subseries of the ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters (series)|monsters series]]''. Kazapstrophe replaces [[Kazapple]] as the ultimate Lightning spell and boasts more utility, requiring a single character to use in most appearances. True to the spell's name, it rains the fury of the gods on to the caster's enemies in the form of colossal thunderbolts several meters wide.

This spell was originally named Kazapple. However, there was another fourth-tier lightning spell called [[Kazapple]] on other games, which is actually ジゴデイン ''Jigodein'' in the original Japanese naming.
On {{DQ11}}, as both ''Minadein'' and ''Jigodein'' were present, they decided to name this one Kazapstrophe instead to lessen the confusion of two spells with the same name.

Kazapstrophe was used by a variety of monsters and was added the spell to [[Anlucia]]'s repertoire for the version 5.3 update, thus making it available to players. It costs 27 MP to cast and the damage range will depend on the user, with the lowest end for monsters being 250~350 and the high end being approximately 600.

Kazapstrophe is a three-person [[Pep|pep power]] that is available to players when the [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Luminary]] learns [[Zapple]] and [[Jade]] masters [[Lightning Storm]]. When used, Jade and [[Rab]] will channel magical energy to the Luminary who sends it crashing down on all enemies. The damage calculation is based on the sum of The Hero and his grandfather's magical might, capping for 594~654 at 975 magical might. Furthermore, the spell has a 25% chance to paralyze foes and a 25% chance to lower their resistance to Lighting by one stage.
