'''Gigaslash''' is a recurring ability in the {{DQSeries}}. It slices through a group of enemies with a blade made of ferocious lightning, dealing incredible damage in every appearance.


'''Gigaslash''' is a recurring ability in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Despite its name suggesting a physical basis for its (very large) damage output, it in fact deals magical damage. It slices a group of enemies with a blade of holy electricity.
Similar lightning-imbued sword techniques first appeared in the manga {{DQTAoD}}, before making their game debut in {{VI}}; the name "Gigaslash" can thus be considered a genericised form of [[Dai]]'s ultimate move [[Giga Strash]] (removing its connection to the character of [[Avan]] and [[Avan Strash|his Strash technique]]).

"This ends right now!"

—Aurora unleashing Gigaslash in Dragon Quest Heroes.


Gigaslash is a recurring ability in the Dragon Quest series. It slices through a group of enemies with a blade made of ferocious lightning, dealing incredible damage in every appearance.

Similar lightning-imbued sword techniques first appeared in the manga Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai, before making their game debut in VI; the name "Gigaslash" can thus be considered a genericised form of Dai's ultimate move Giga Strash (removing its connection to the character of Avan and his Strash technique).

The Hero learns Gigaslash at level 40. It costs 38 MP and inflicts 225~275 Strike damage to all enemies, with the souped-up version being Gigagash.

Dai himself later uses this attack instinctively in order to fend off Hadlar (where it is again identified only as an imperfect Gigabreak).
