Heaven's Drive calls jagged spikes of earth up through the ground over a small area, striking everything caught above them with Earth-property magic.

Overview

Heaven's Drive is a ground-targeted area spell available to both Wizards and Sages. It affects a 5×5 patch of cells around the chosen point and hits each target a number of times equal to the skill level, making it a reliable area-clearing tool against grounded enemies. Because it is Earth-property, it is especially effective against Wind-element foes. For Wizards it is also the gateway to Quagmire, and Professors need it to learn Gravitation Field.

Mechanics

The spell strikes every enemy in the 5×5 area once per skill level (1 hit at Level 1, up to 5 hits at Level 5). Each hit deals magic damage based on the caster's MATK.

Damage per hit: 100% MATK
Total damage: (100 × SkillLv)% MATK
Against a target affected by Quagmire: +50% damage, for a total of (150 × SkillLv)% MATK

The spikes also reach hidden enemies, which makes the skill a common answer to cloaked or buried targets. Cast time is one second per skill level, so higher levels trade a longer wind-up for more hits. After-cast delay is a flat 0.7 seconds at every level, and the skill has no cooldown.

Leveling

Level	Hits	Total damage (% MATK)	Under Quagmire	Cast time	SP
1	1	100	150	1 s	28
2	2	200	300	2 s	32
3	3	300	450	3 s	36
4	4	400	600	4 s	40
5	5	500	750	5 s	44

Notes

The spikes reach hidden enemies, so the skill can be used to reveal and damage concealed targets.
Enemies slowed by Quagmire take 50% extra damage from every hit.
