'''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.
 
'''Kazapstrophe''' is a Lightning-element spell that requires the cooperation of the whole party to cast.
 
==Localization history==
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.

Costs 15 MP to all party members to deal 300~350 Zap damage to one enemy. As their MP is always 0, the spell cannot be used if [[Ragnar]], [[Alena]] or [[Torneko]] are in the party.

Kazapstrophe was used by a variety of monsters and was added to [[Anlucia]]'s spell repertoire for the version 5.3 update onwards, 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.
Appears briefly during the story of the fourth expansion of the game.
 
{{spoiler|start}}'''Kazapstrophe''' is used by the protagonist in version 5.5+ to defeat the Great Source of Darkness, [[Jagonuba]]. To perform this spell, the protagonist receives the power of all living beings on the planet (from residents of Astoltia, Nadragand and [[Netherworld]]) thanks to the help of [[Goddess Luciana]]. Once the energy is gathered, the survivor of [[Tenton]] uses Kazapstrophe with the help of all their summoned allies like [[Anlucia]], [[Shaka]], [[Estelle]] or [[Valeria]]. The massive spell fulminates Jagonuba, killing him on the spot.

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.
Appears as a [[Pep power]] performed by 4 characters including the {{Hero 11}} (providing he knows [[Kazap]]).
Deals lightning damage to all enemies, damage is scaled by the total [[Magical Might]] of the characters, and can go up to 1500.
 
==={{DQMJ2P}}===
ミナデイン was added in the Professional version of the game. It drains the entire party's MP and is only marginally stronger than ジゴデイン, but the allies of the caster can act while the spell is used and thus has much greater utility than in previous games.


An evil version of the spell is used by [[Calasmos]] during the final battle, known as [[Chaotic Kazapstrophe]].
===''[[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]]''===
The spell has been tweaked so that [[Monster sizes|Large-sized monsters]] can cast it by themselves.  


===''Joker'' games===
==={{DQMSL}}===
Kazapstrophe has a base damage of 230~290 and will increase in power once a monster's wisdom surpasses 524, capping out at 422~482 damage. It costs 30 MP to cast, and features the same parameters in all three titles.
{{Stub}}


===''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry's Wonderland 3D]]''===
===''[[Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road]]''===
Kazapstrophe has the same MP cost and power as seen in the ''Joker'' trio.
ミナデイン has two versions, one for the Luminaries of the Legendary line seen in {{DQ2}} and another for the Chosen of {{DQ4}}. In first version the three cousins are shown entering the scene by riding upon [[Empyrea]]'s back, with the [[Prince of Midenhall]] channeling the power of the [[thunderbolt blade]] to contribute. There are two versions of the latter for the male and female {{Hero 4}}, with [[Healie]] aiding [[Ragnar]] by donating his MP. {{Psaro C}} is also present in the group, but refuses to assist and merely observes.  


==={{DQH2}}===
==Battle visuals==
[[Loss leader]]s are able to cast the spell, and if it is reflected back at them it will deal approximately 1,200 damage.
