Air Strike

From Dragon Quest Wiki

Air Strike is a recurring skill first introduced in Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai as one of the three fundamental skills of the Avan-style school of spearmanship, and the spear counterpart of Air Slash. Focusing light-aligned Aura into their weapon, the user thrusts it at their target to pierce through the power of darkness and disperse it.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai[edit]

After Hyunckel adopts Larhart's spear in place of his old sword, he studies the Book of Avan and learns that the Hero created versions of his Earth, Sea and Sky techniques for non-sword weapons as well.

Similar to his failed attempts at Air Slash, Hyunckel's clouded spirit initially prevented him from using Air Strike as well; however, after a pep talk from Maam he managed to execute this technique in order to cut through Mystvearn's otherwise impervious Dark Aura.

Dragon Quest Tact[edit]

Air Strike can be learned by Dark Armour Spear Hyunckel at level 52 and costs 70 MP to use. It has a range of up to three squares away from him in any direction and inflicts 320% Woosh-type surehit physical damage to a single enemy. Upgrading the skill increases its damage and reduces the amount of MP it costs to use.
