Earthquake

Encyclopedia | Units | Spells

Rank: Ancient
Type: Instant/Offensive
Cost: 5 turns, 100,000 MP

Effects

• After it is cast, and if it succesfully makes it through your enemy's barriers/spell resistance:
  • It empties all your mana,
  • It then, from the victim, subtracts the mana it took from you, minus a % approximately equal to the % difference in net power between you and the target. Consequently, the closer your target is in net power to you, the more mana it destroys.
  • Casting this spell as an allied or opposing colour mage has no impact on its effect, though it does cost more for these mages.

Tip: Do not cast if you have a negative mana income as you will lose everything that is mana dependent.

Question: if the victim has less than half of your mana - you do not (? or still ?) lose all your mana (??)

EDIT: I have used it recently and once through barriers it reduces enemy MP to 0. This has been confirmed to a maximum of 500k MP. I did not find anyone with a higher reserve to test it on. -Kumtrya

EDIT: It always empties you mana.
Also, it can take much more from target than half you mana. If you are close to your target, you take almost equally as much as you lose.
