==Description== | |||
When cast, Lucca spin to face the screen and several ovals of red light shuffle across the screen, followed by a series of yellow explosions that cause all targets to turn a molten-white color. Creatures exceptionally weak to flare are [[Red Scouter]]s, while creatures such as [[Red Ghaj]] absorb Flare and convert it into [[Hit Point]]s. | |||

While the animation is similar to Lucca's tech, several more enemies cast this spell than [[Player Character]]s. The first time the party encounters this enemy tech is when fighting [[Golem]] in [[Zeal Palace]]. Secondly, [[Spekkio]] casts this spell in his final form, when the players attempt to win 10 [[Magic Capsule]]s, [[Speed Capsule]]s, and [[Strength Capsule]]s. The guardian of the [[Sun Shrine]], [[Son of the Sun]] casts Flare when several of its flames are attacked in the incorrect order. | |||
Other beasts such as [[Archaeofang (Elder)]], [[Archaeofang (Younger)]], and [[Nu Guardian]] cast this spell in the [[Dimensional Vortex]] dungeons of {{CTDS}}. | |||
Since Lucca is a [[Fire]]-element, she receives half-damage from Flare. Outfitting her with [[Taban's Helm]], [[Taban's Suit]], [[Taban's Vest]], or any combination of the three grants her additional resistance to Flare and all other fire techs. Alternatively, equipping any party member with [[Ruby Vest]] will increase resistance to Flare by 50%, while equipping [[Ruby Armor]] increases fire resistance by 75%, Flare included. [[Red Plate]]s and [[Red Vest]]s, when worn, will allow the wearer to absorb damage from Flare and covert it into [[Hit Point]]s. | |||
==Name Origin== | |||
A ''flare'' is a fire or blaze of light used especially to signal, illuminate, or attract attention. A ''lens flare'' is a ocular phenomenon occurring when exposed to large quantities of excessively bright light. A ''solar flare'' is a cosmic phenomenon that occurs when the {{w|Sun}} spits jets of fire menacingly from its relatively stable surface storms. | |||
In addition to the above, like many other spells in Chrono Trigger, the name of the spell is the same as a similar spell in the Final Fantasy series, though Final Fantasy's version of the spell usually does non-elemental damage to enemies, despite its visual appearance generally being that of a fiery explosion. | |||
