In db/pre-re/skill_db.txt, this is what EQ is currently defined as:

653,0,8,4,0,0x26,5:7:9:11:13:5:7:9:11:13,10,1,no,0,0x2002,0,weapon,0, NPC_EARTHQUAKE,Earthquake


This is incredibly wrong to change EQ from magic to weapon. This makes EQ completely bypass-able with Safety Wall and Pneuma (depending on how close you are to the MVP).

The fix in that previous skill bug did solve the low damage issue (because EQ should be based on ATK, not MATK), however, it created a bigger issue described above.

In a nutshell, EQ is supposed to be:

• Neutral Property
• Long Ranged
• MDEF Piercing
• ATK-based magical damage

Also, the 3-wave-hit damage is split among players in the AoE and it is re-calculated on each hit. Meaning if a person dies on the first hit, the damage increases for the rest of the players because 1 less factor when diving.

Magic is the keyword because Golden thief bug card nullifies EQ.


Thank you for your time.
