Dragon's Crest (ability)

Dragon's Crest
Dragon's Crest is an ability utilized by Freya, which gains power after defeating Dragon type enemies. Note that Freya doesn't even have to be in the party for the power of this attack to increase; Dragons that were defeated before Freya learned this ability count as well. The formula is as such: Damage = (Number of Dragon type enemies defeated by party) × (Number of Dragon type enemies defeated by party) For example, if the party has managed to defeat 50 Dragon type enemies, then Freya's Dragon's Crest will deal 2500 damage. While defeating 75 Dragons will have Dragon's Crest pushing 5625 damage. As such, the mere slaying of 100 Dragons throughout the game is required to power the ability to maximum potential.

Dragon's Crest can only be learned from Holy Lance and Kain's Lance weapons, and costs 16 MP to use. It is potentially one of the strongest attacks in the game, tied with Zidane Tribal's Thievery, and Quina Quen's Frog Drop, as it completely ignores defense as well as the Protect status.
