'''Aeolian Slash''', also known as '''Gale Slash''', is a recurring skill in the {{DQSeries}}, first introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker]]''. It enchants the wielder's weapon with the power of a howling cyclone for a single attack.

==Appearances==
==={{DQMJ}}===
Gale Slash costs 4 MP to use and strikes a single enemy with an attack using 130% of the user's normal attack based on the target's [[Woosh]] resistance. It can be learned from:

* [[Firewind Slashes]] (80 points)
* [[Frizz & Woosh | Frizz & Woosh III]] (27 points)
* [[Speedster]] (76 points)
* [[Thunderwind Slashes]] (60 points)
* [[Über Blessed Blizzardier]] (22 points)
* [[Über Knight]] (24 points)
* [[Wind Blower]] (80 points)
* [[Woosh & Crack | Woosh & Crack III]] (27 points)
* [[Woosh & Zam | Woosh & Zam III]] (27 points)
* [[Woosh & Zap | Woosh & Zap III]] (27 points)

==={{DQMJ2}}===
Gale Slash's damage was reduced to 120% and it can no longer be learned from [[Speedster]]. It also now deals a combination of Woosh and [[Zam]]-elemental damage. The point requirements for [[Firewind Slashes]] and [[Thunderwind Slashes]] have changed. It can now be learned from:

* [[Firewind Slashes]] (65 points)
* [[Thunderwind Slashes]] (50 points)
* [[Woosh & Sizz | Woosh & Sizz III]] (27 points)

==={{DQTact}}===
Aeolian Slash can be learned by [[Buffalo wing]] and [[Hoodlum]] at level 20, [[Armful]] and [[Tearwolf]] at level 22, [[Rhinoceraxe]] at level 26, [[Hell gladiator]] and [[Robbin' 'oodlum]] at level 31, and [[Cyber slime]] at level 32. It costs 17 MP to use and inflicts 180% potency Woosh-type physical damage to a single enemy. Aeolian Slash can also be taught to any unit by using an ability scroll, which can be purchased from the Slime Fest or ''Dragon Quest VII'' event swap shops for 1,500 medals or received as a reward for the first time completion of the Woosh-type Upgrade: Ultra quest and the seventh stage of [[Jade]]'s Battle Road.

==Etymology==
The skill's name in Japanese references [[Wikipedia:Fūjin|Fūjin]], the Japanese god of wind and one of the eldest gods in Shinto mythology. He is often depicted together with Raijin, the god of lightning and thunder. In the English version of ''Tact'', the skill is named after [[Wikipedia:Aeolus (son of Hippotes)|Aeolus]], the ruler of the winds in Greek mythology. He is sometimes interpreted as a god by classical writers.
