+====== Crystal (Mob) ======
+{{ rpd:images:crystal_sprite.png|Crystal Sprite }}
+The **Crystal** is a special magical enemy found in Remixed Pixel Dungeon, often associated with the [[rpd:shadow_lord|Shadow Lord]]. These are magical constructs that serve powerful entities in the dungeon and possess magical abilities.
+==== Description ====
+Crystals are magical constructs that serve the [[rpd:shadow_lord|Shadow Lord]] and other powerful entities in the dungeon. They appear on pedestals and attack with wands. They have 3 different types and can be quite dangerous in combat.
+Based on string resources: "Big shining crystal floating in the air. Probably it is filled with powerful magic." [[mr:crystal_mob|Crystal - Code References]]
+==== Stats ====
+* **HP:** Depth * 4 + 1 (adjusts based on dungeon depth)

+==== Behavior ====
+* **Type 2 Special:** Shadow Lord crystals (kind = 2) have 25% chance to be equipped with [[rpd:wand_of_shadowbolt|Wand of Shadowbolt]] upgraded to half dungeon depth (instead of normal wands)
+* **Dungeon Interaction:** When a crystal on a pedestal dies, it transforms the area to embers and foliage, clearing Darkness in a 5x5 area
+* **Steal Action:** If targeted with a "steal" action, it will create a Chaos Mark at its position and die

+* **Wand Attack:** Uses equipped wand when attacking (wand is upgraded to appropriate level based on dungeon depth)
+* **Attack Range:** Can attack any target in line of sight using Ballistica.cast

+* **Type 0 & 1:** Standard crystals that spawn randomly in levels with attack skill of 1000
+* **Type 2:** Special Shadow Lord crystals that appear during the [[rpd:shadow_lord|Shadow Lord]] encounter with enhanced mechanics
+==== Strategy ====
+* **Magical Resistance:** Magical resistance or armor can be helpful against wand-based attacks
+* **Immobilized Target:** Since crystals don't move, you can position yourself to avoid their attacks
+* **Range Attack:** Crystals can attack from a distance using their wands, with attack skill of 1000 for types 0 & 1
+* **Pedestal Death Effect:** If a crystal dies while on a pedestal, it transforms the area to embers and foliage, clearing Darkness in a 5x5 area

+* **Implementation:** Automatically equipped with random wands based on depth, with special handling for Shadow Lord crystals
+* **Entity Kind:** [[mr:crystal_mob|Crystal - Code References]]

+* Crystals cannot be moved with telekinesis
+* The crystal that appears during the Shadow Lord fight has special mechanics and a higher attack skill (1000)
