ToP iOS Explosion

Explode as it appears in Tales of Phantasia (iOS).

Explode (エクスプロード Ekusupuroodo?), also localized as Explosion and Circle-Blast, is an advanced Fire-elemental magic arte in the Tales series.

Arte Description and History[]

Explosion (ToS)

Explosion as it appears in Tales of Symphonia.

This spell summons a small ball of fire that is dropped from the sky, creating a massive explosion upon impact with the ground. The spell's explosion has a massive effect radius and deals a great amount of damage often with a single hit, similar in style and strength to Indignation.

In Tales of Eternia, this spell's animation and effect is extended, beginning with a burst of flame that spirals upward around the spellcaster, damaging all nearby enemies. The ball of flame shoots beyond the top of the screen, reappearing over the targeted enemy after a short delay before impacting the ground to deal multiple hits in an exceptionally wide area. The initial spiraling effect does not appear in any other game.

In Tales of Symphonia, Genis Sage learns this spell after mastering Eruption if he is aligned with the Technical branch of artes. If used together with either Hunting Beast or Raging Beast during a Unison Attack, the resulting Compound Special Attack yields Fiery Beast, and if used with Ray, Prism Stars is activated. Explosion has no Strike counterpart. In Tales of the Abyss, this spell is an FOF Change that is activated if Jade Curtiss casts Flame Burst within a fully-charged Wind or Light FOF Circle. However, certain characters like Asch and Philia Philis are capable of casting Explosion as a separate spell without the same FOF Circle requirement.

In the PlayStation 2 remake of Tales of Destiny, the spell is actually executed in the background with the sides of the explosion dealing damage.

In Tales of Hearts, Explode is used as a component for three different combination artes that are available to Kohaku Hearts, activated by summoning either her or her partner into battle using the Connect Command panel and controlling the opposite character to use his or her associated arte at the same time. If the spell is used with Beryl Benito's Stone Wall, it becomes Ignite Prison, while if used with Beryl's Ray Needle, it changes into Raging Mist. If Explode is used with Kunzite's Dead Soul, it becomes Bloody Howling.

In Tales of Arise, the blazing sphere that descends upon the target before the explosion resembles the Fire master core.

In Tales of Luminaria, this is one of August Wallenstein's mystic artes. August summons a red glyph on the ground with two rings in the air, right where the target is located. The glyph then bursts forth streams of red energy that damage any enemies caught in them.
