| | #REDIRECT [[Crystal]] |
| The '''Elemental Crystals''' are four enemies encountered in battle alongside the optional boss [[Culex]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. They include the Earth Crystal, Fire Crystal, Water Crystal, and Wind Crystal, and are so named due to their elemental nature. Like Culex, they are from the dimension of [[List of Implied Locations#Vanda|Vanda]] and met in a portal leading to that world found in [[Monstro Town]].
| |
| | |
| Each of the crystals has a different choice of attacks and range of stats, as well as a theme in attacks used. These differences all lead to varying levels of difficulty in battling each, as well as different appropriate battling-strategies.

| ==Crystals==
| |
| ===Earth Crystal===
| |
| [[Image:Earth-crystal.gif|frame|right]]
| |
| The '''Earth Crystal''' has the highest amount of HP out of all of the four crystals, but balances out with a dismal defense of 70.
| |
| | |
| Despite being the crystal of earth, it only has two earth-based attacks, [[Boulder]] and [[Sandstorm]]. It actually has two water-based attacks as well, which are [[Storm]] and [[Water Blast]]. It finishes up with the move [[Blast]].
| |
| | |
| It is weak against Thunder-based attacks.
| |
| | |
| ===Fire Crystal===
| |
| [[Image:Fire-crystal.gif|frame|right]]
| |
| True to its name, the '''Fire Crystal''' uses largely fire-based attacks, including [[Corona]], [[Flame]], and [[Flame Wall]]. It rounds these attacks out with the moves [[Drain]] and [[Mega Drain]].
| |
| | |
| It is weak against Ice-based attacks. Strangely, it breaks the pattern of strongest-to-weakest by having a greater Magic Defense then the next in-line Water Crystal. Combined with its exceptional Magic Attack, it can be considered an even more difficult opponent than even the Earth Crystal.
| |
| | |
| ===Water Crystal===
| |
| [[Image:Water-crystal.gif|frame|right]]
| |
| The '''Water Crystal''' is the second-to-last crystal, (right above the Wind Crystal) in terms of weakness. While wielding decent Defense, its Magic Attack and Magic Defense are still lower than that of the Fire Crystal.
| |
| | |
| The title of "Water" crystal is actually misleading: it does not use a single water-based attack, not counting the [[Ice Rock]] move, which is an earth-based move, and [[Blizzard]], which is just as vague. The Water Crystal uses mostly mineral-based moves, such as [[Crystal (attack)|Crystal]], [[Diamond Saw]], and [[Solidify]].
| |
| | |
| Its only weakness are Fire-based attacks.
| |
| | |
| ===Wind Crystal===
| |
| [[Image:Wind-crystal.gif|frame|right]]
| |
| The '''Wind Crystal''' is the weakest of all the crystals, but has massive physical defense, making it take far longer to defeat than the others.
| |
| | |
| The Wind Crystal has mainly electrical-based attacks, such as [[Bolt]], [[Electroshock]], [[Lightning Orb]], and [[Static E!]]. It also has two attacks that may inflict status effects on Mario and his party. [[Petal Blast]] causes the entire party to transform into mushrooms, which prevents any party member from attacking or using an item, but heals a small amount each turn.
| |
| | |
| The Wind Crystal is also armed with the [[Light Beam]] attack, which leaves the party under the sleep status. Once defeated, the Wind Crystal will disappear like the other three crystals until the battle ends.
| |
| | |
| It is weak against [[Jump]]ing attacks, making it the only crystal susceptible to physical rather than special attacks.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *All four of the Elemental Crystals originally appeared in ''Final Fantasy'' and also featured prominently in ''Final Fantasy IV'', from which Culex's theme music comes.
| |
| *''[[Paper Mario]]'', a game once conceived as a sequel to ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'', has the [[Crystal Bit]]s serving much the same purpose and appearance as the Elemental Crystals alongside the [[Crystal King]].
