It is typically known by major bosses and is almost always used by the final bosses, making the use of stat changing moves futile in such battles if one's luck is unrelentingly bad  

Used by [[Zoma]], as well as some of the superbosses such as [[Xenlon]] and [[Gran Dragon]].

Disruptive Wave can be learned by any character in the [[Hero (vocation)|Hero]] vocation when they reach rank 2. This is the only way to learn the ability, as the Sword of Ramias instead casts [[Oomph]] when used as an item in battle.

It is worth noting that Disruptive Wave acts slightly different in this installment as it now only affects the opposition when used by a character or a monster. This makes debuffs viable against many bosses since they can't use the ability to clear them away. This isn't used as heavily by the story bosses (only [[King Godwyn]] and [[Corvus]] uses it). However, several of the {{Grotto}} bosses and ''all'' of the [[legacy boss]]es will use this ability.

[[Sage]]s learn an ability similar to Disruptive Wave called [[Clear Your Mind]], by investing 100 points into their Enlightenment skill. It costs 10 {{MP}} to cast, and blasts a wave in a cone in front of them, removing positive status effects of any enemy hit. [[Demon Swordsman|Demon Swordsmen]] can learn Disruptive Wave with 70 points invested into their Wave skill. It costs 6 MP to cast, and functions similarly to Clear Your Mind. Several boss-level enemies also use this skill in battle.
