Damage Formula is Wrong
I have rank Novice Mana crystalization and a Rank A Thunder crystal with one charge. I attacked a Brown Dire Wolf with it. One charge of Rank A thunder deals 60~250*1.5 = 90~375 damage. Factor in the penalty for novice crystalization and that's 45~187.5. I was attacking a Brown Dire Wolf which has 1 defense and 0 protection. In spite of the fact that I should deal at least 44 damage, I dealt only 30 damage. The current formula is wrong.
I'm pretty sure that Mana Crystallization's thunder does not receive the 1.5x damage boost, nor does it receive the 2x damage boost fo the 5th charge.
Now if we deal with only the base damage of 60~250*0.5, you'd get 30~125 which is in range. You should test it with a tower cylinder and see if you get within the original damage range.
