Booga uses the power of the green orb to cast Giga Drain Magic, while Mordegon and Sheer Decadence have access to it naturally. Its properties vary depending on if the game is played in 3D or 2D; In 3D it is classified as a skill and thus cannot be Bounced back, draining 6~8 MP eight times in a row from random targets. In 2D, the spell drains 10~15 MP from each party member.

The spell costs half of the caster's current MP and is cast four times, with the player selecting the first target but the others being randomly targeted. Each victim is drained of 25% of it's maximum MP, with a range of 5~10 MP layered on top of that.

It still costs 50% MP for four shots but the spell's effectiveness now depends on the caster's level, being 75% of the monster's level with 5~10 MP added. For example, if a caster is at level 64 then the range for one shot will be 53~58. Additionally any of the four drainings can be reflected back at the caster to no effect, and are subject to going haywire like any other spell.
