Explosion

Explosion, also known as Bomb, is a recurring element in the Grandia series. Explosion magic is primarily used to deal damage to enemies but can also be used to raise the attack stat.

Recurring Themes

Equipment

Explosion equipment is a very common set of weapons, armor and accessories that deal, nullify, or absorb Explosion damage.

Spells

Explosion magic has many offensive spells including BOOM!, BOOM-POW!, BA-BOOM, and Meteor Strike. The spell WOW! frequently appears as the only non-damaging explosion magic (although, in some games, it appears as a Fire spell).

Enemies

Enemies found in volcanoes or deserts tend to be resilient against explosion attacks and plant or nebulous enemies are usually weak against explosion.
