-'''Lightning Slash''' is a recurring skill. Contrary to its name, it powers up an attack with the might of a colossal explosion rather than a bolt of electricity.
+'''Lightning Slash''' is a recurring skill in the {{DQSeries}}.
+Contrary to its name, it used the power of the [[Bang]] series of spells for its appearances in mainline games instead of the [[Zap]] spells, likely due to balancing issues over how very few monster has resistance to electricity and the lightning element itself being reserved for [[Hero]]es.
+However in the {{Monsters S}} spin off series of games the [[Zap]] element has been given less preferential treatment compared to the other elements and has been applied to the skill, with this having since become standard in every appearance it makes in a spin off title.

-Lightning Slash deals variable melee damage, with the power being dependent on the target's resistance to the [[bang]] element. Possible modifiers are 130%, 115%, 75%, and 30% It is obtained by advancing to rank 3 of the [[Armamentalist]] vocation.
+Lightning Slash deals variable melee damage, with the power being dependent on the target's resistance to the [[Bang]] element. Possible modifiers are 130%, 115%, 75%, and 30%. It is learned by advancing to rank 3 of the [[Armamentalist]] vocation.
+The reason for this deceitful discrepancy is likely balance concerns, as only a handful of {{MFamilies}}s can resist lighting and thus the skill would be too easy to abuse.
+It is used by the enemies [[bad karmour]]s, and [[zombie gladiator]]s.
+==={{DQ7}}===
+Lightning Slash is performed and acquired in the same way as before, by advancing to rank 3 as an [[Armamentalist]]. In the original [[Sony PlayStation]] version, Lightning Slash could also be learned by a [[Ersatz Estark (vocation)|Esterk]] at the first rank. Alternatively, it is also learned by advancing to rank two as a [[Hero (vocation)|Hero]] in the {{3DS}} version of the game.
+It is also used by [[Maeve]] in the short amount of time she joins the {{Party 7}}.
+The only enemy to use it is [[ceramic sergeant]].
+==={{DQ8}}===
+Thunder Slash is an enemy-only skill used by [[phantom fencer]]s, [[riptide]]s, and [[zombie gladiator]]s. It's also used by the recruitable Infamous Monster [[Capers]].
+==={{DQ9}}===
+Thunder Slash is used by the aquatic [[riptide]]s, and players may duplicate the technique by way of the [[Armamentalist]]'s Gale Fource.  {{IX}} has been balanced so that the double attribute nature of this technique will not negate the effectiveness of one element over the other.
+==={{DQM}}===
+BoltSlash is a normal attack that deals increased damage based on the target's lightning resistance. It can be learned naturally by [[Archdemon|ArcDemon]], [[Marrow escapee|BoneSlave]], [[Flapdragon|Coatol]], [[Harmour|EvilArmor]], [[HornBeet]], [[Growlbear|LandOwl]], [[RotRaven]], and [[Thunderbird|ZapBird]] as long as it is a level 11 and has 77 max {{HP}}, 34 max {{MP}}, 66 {{Attack}}, and 42 {{Intelligence}}. BoltSlash can also be learned by any {{MFamilies}} that knows both the [[Muster Strength|ChargeUP]] and [[Lightning]] skills.
+==={{DQM2}}===
+BoltSlash now requires 74 {{Intelligence}} to learn. It is naturally learned by the [[CancerMan (DQM2)|CancerMan]], [[Fish rider|FishRider]], [[Overkilling machine|Roboster2]].
+==={{DQMCH}}===

+==={{DQMJ}}===
+Lightning Slash costs 2 {{MP}} and strikes a single enemy with 110% of the user's attack, inflicting [[Zap]]-element damage. It can be learned from various skill trees.
+*[[Dragon Lore]] (64 points)
+*[[Thunderwind Slashes]] (29 points)
+*[[Wulfspade (Skill)|Wulfspade]] (18 points)
+==={{DQMJ2}}===
+In the English version, Lightning Slash's name was changed to '''Charring Slash''' as it now dealt a combination of [[Zap]] and [[Sizz]]-element damage, defaulting to the least-resisted element for damage calculation. The point requirement for Thunderwind Slashes has changed. It could now also be learned from the following skills:
+*[[Bang & Sizz]] (34 points)
+*[[Bang & Sizz|Bang & Sizz II]] (18 points)
+*[[Crack & Sizz]] (24 points)
+*[[Crack & Sizz|Crack & Sizz II]] (8 points)
+*[[Frizz & Sizz]] (24 points)
+*[[Frizz & Sizz|Frizz & Sizz II]] (10 points)
+*[[Sizz & Zam]] (14 points)
+*[[Sizz & Zam|Sizz & Zam II]] (5 points)
+*[[Sizz & Zap]] (8 points)
