'''Lightning Strike of Destruction''' is a Wind-property ground-targeted area magic skill of the [[Ninja]] that calls down lightning bolts over a chosen area.

== Overview ==
This skill targets a ground cell and saturates the surrounding area with Wind magic. The damaged area expands as the skill is leveled, making it the Ninja's primary Wind area-of-effect tool against grouped enemies.

== Mechanics ==
Lightning bolts strike across the target area, hitting every enemy in range.

'''Damage formula:''' each hit deals (50 + 25 × SkillLv)% MATK.

'''Area of effect:''' Lv1–4 cover a 5×5 area, Lv5–8 cover a 7×7 area, and Lv9–10 cover a 9×9 area.

'''Effect:''' when several bolts would stack on the same cell, only one of them damages enemies on that cell (bolts do not multi-hit a single tile).

== Requirements ==
* [[Wind Blade]] Lv3

== Catalysts ==
* 1 Wind Stone per cast

== Notes ==
* Being a Wind skill, casting it applies the [[Combustion Gale]] haze to the caster.
* The Cast Time of this skill (and the Ninja's other Wind skills) can be reduced, and its damage raised, by the [[Hydro Gale]] haze.
