{{Spell Infobox |title = Disruptive Wave |image = [[Image:DQR Disruptive Wave.png|200px]] |japanese = {{tt|γγ¦γ€γγ―γ©γ|Freezing wave}}<br>{{tt|γγ¦γ€γζ³’ε|Freezing wave}} (''VII'' onwards) |romaji = Itetsuku hadΕ |old = DeMagic |type = Skill }} '''Disruptive Wave''' is a recurring skill in the {{DQSeries}}. Introduced in {{Dragon Quest III}} as a {{MFamilies}}-exclusive attack, it nullifies all stat changes, such as those caused by buff abilities such as [[Kabuff]] and [[Oomph]], debuffs such as [[Kasap]] and [[Deceleratle]], and [[Tension]]. 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 ==Appearances== ==={{DQ3}}=== Used by [[Zoma]], as well as some of the superbosses such as [[Xenlon]] and [[Gran Dragon]]. The 2024 remake allows the players characters to use a similar skill called [[Ripple of Disruption]] by reaching level 43 with a [[Martial Artist]], and it costs 12 {{MP}}. ==={{DQ4}}=== Disruptive Wave is a technique used by {{MFamilies}}s such as [[Estark]], {{Foo Yung}}, [[Psaro the Manslayer]], and [[Aamon]]. However, the {{Hero 4}} can unleash this by using the [[Zenithian sword]] as a tool in battle. In the remakes, Disruptive Wave is one of the special abilities that the {{Psaro 9}} can learn. ==={{DQ5}}=== Disruptive Wave is learned by recruited {{King slime R}}s at level 18. [[Saber]] can also learn it at level 33, and [[Starkers]] learns it at Level 10. As in {{IV}}, the Zenithian sword can unleash this effect if used as a tool in battle. [[King Korol]], Grandmaster [[Nimzo]] and [[Estark]] can use Disruptive Wave in their boss fights. ==={{DQ6}}=== 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. As far as bosses go, [[Dhuran]], [[Mortamor]] and [[Nokturnus]] have access to Disruptive Wave. ==={{DQ7}}=== Learned via the Hero vocation as in {{VI}}, but also by reaching rank 6 of the [[Druid]] vocation in the {{PSX}} version and rank 3 in the {{3DS}}, or rank 7 of the [[Paladin]] vocation in the {{3DS}} version only. It is superior (and cheaper) than [[The Great Leveller]] as it covers more effects. ==={{DQ8}}=== Disruptive Wave is used by most of the later story bosses, starting with [[Dhoulmagus]]. ==={{DQ9}}=== Disruptive Wave is learned with 42 skill points allocated into [[List of enlightenment skills in Dragon Quest IX|Enlightenment skill]]. It costs 10 {{MP}} to perform. 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. ==={{DQ10}}=== [[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. ==={{DQ11}}=== Disruptive Wave is a [[Pep]] power that can be used by [[Rab]] when he is [[pep]]ped up and has mastered [[Clear Your Mind]] and the {{Hero 11}} has mastered [[Unbridled Blade]]. It is also used by various bosses, including Jasper Unbound, [[Mordegon]], Lord of Shadows in his final form, Mordragon, [[Calasmos]], [[Overweening Pride]], [[Nelgelas]], the End of Time, and the Timewyrm. ==={{DQM}}=== Called '''DeMagic''' in this game, it requires the {{MFamilies}} to reach level 20 with 100 max {{MP}} and 140 {{Intelligence}}. It is naturally learned by [[Mortamor|DeathMore]] (Final form),[[Nimzo|Mirudraas]] (Transformed) and [[Zoma]]. It can also be learned by monsters with [[Wave of Relief|Surge]] and [[Wave of Panic|UltraDown]]. ==={{DQM2}}=== DeMagic now requires 252 {{Intelligence}} to learn. It is naturally learned by [[Psycho Psaro|PsychoPiz]], [[Orgodemir]] (Transformed) and [[Scruffy|Warubou]]. ==={{DQMCH}}=== {{Stub}} ==={{DQMJ}}=== Disruptive Wave can be learned from various skill trees. *[[Cleanser]] (100 points) *[[Cursader]] (60 points) *[[Dhoulmagus (skill)|Dhoulmagus]] (34 points) *[[Diamagon (skill)|Diamagon III]] (30 points) *[[Estark (skill)|Estark]] (100 points) *[[Mortamor (skill)|Mortamor]] (100 points) *[[Nimzo (skill)|Nimzo]] (100 points) *[[Rhapthorne (skill)|Rhapthorne II]] (51 points) ==={{DQMJ2}}=== Disruptive Wave can no longer be learned from [[Cursader]], and [[Rhapthorne (skill)|Rhapthorne II]] now only requires 44 points. ==={{DQM3D}}=== {{Stub}} ==={{DQM23D}}=== {{Stub}} ==={{DQMJ3}}=== {{Stub}} ==={{DQM3}}=== Disruptive Wave costs 60 {{MP}} and is learned via the [[Baramos (Talent)|Baramos]], [[Cool Customer]], [[Dhoulmagus (Talent)|Dhoulmagus]], [[Estark (Talent)|Estark]], [[Fuzzy Thinker]], [[Mordegon, Lord of Shadows (Talent)|Mordegon, Lord of Shadows]], [[Mortamot (Talent)|Mortamor]], [[Nelgel the Netherfiend (Talent)|Nelgel the Netherfiend ]], [[Nimzo (Talent)|Nimzo]], [[Nokturnus (Talent)|Nkturnus]], [[Orgodemir (Talent)|Orgodemir]], [[Razerburn (Talent)|Razerburn]], and [[Rhapthorne (Talent)|Rhapthorne]] talents. ==={{DQMSL}}=== {{Stub}} ==={{DQH}}=== {{Psaro 9}} can learn the ability when he joins for 8 skill points, and the skill only strips buffs from its targets instead of all stat modifiers. It costs 8 {{MP}} to use. He will also use it against the player in the battle against him. Additionally, [[Tension]] is not reduced when used. ==={{DQH2}}=== {{Stub}} ==={{DQStars}}=== {{Stub}} ==={{DQRivals}}=== {{Stub}} ==={{DQTact}}=== '''Frigid Wave''' was originally an enemy-only skill that can be used by various bosses, particularly on harder difficulties. [[Zoma]] can also learn it through Talent Blossoming. It costs 76 {{MP}} to use and removes status changes from all enemies in a large rhombus area. {{DQTactSkill |name=Frigid Wave |kanji=γγ¦γ€γγ―γ©γ |romanji=Itetsuku hadΕ |role=Special |type=Martial |element=[[Image:DQTact Non-elemental.png]] |mp=76 |range=[[Image:DQTact RangeRhombusL.png|48px]]<br>Rhombus (L) |status=None |description=Removes some status changes for all enemies in area of effect |monsters=[[Zoma]] }} Starting with Version 3.0 of the game, the boss variant was renamed to '''Extra Frigid Wave''' in order to differentiate it from the version that [[Zoma]] can learn. This version only costs 42 {{MP}} to use and affects the entire stage. {{DQTactSkill |name=Extra Frigid Wave |kanji=γγ¦γ€γγ―γ©γ |romanji=Itetsuku hadΕ |role=Special |type=Martial |element=[[Image:DQTact Non-elemental.png]] |mp=42 |range=[[Image:DQTact RangeAroundSelf.png|48px]]<br>Around self |status=None |description=Removes some status changes for all enemies in area of effect |monsters=Archfiend [[Mortamor]], Archfiend's Left Hand, [[Goresby-Purrvis]], [[Hargon]], [[Maldragora]] the Worldbreaker, [[Malroth]], [[Mordegon]], [[Mordegon]] Lord of Shadows, [[Nimzo]], [[Psaro the Manslayer]], [[Zoma]] }} ==Related skills== *[[Ripple of Disruption]] ==Trivia== *The {{Translation|Japanese name|γγ¦γ€γγ―γ©γ|Itetsuku hadou|"Freezing Waves"}} refers to [[Zoma]]'s ice magic, as he was the first to use the skill. *In the initial English version of {{Dragon Quest VIII}}, it was referred to as a '''Wave of Ice''', a literal translation of its Japanese name. Subsequent releases, such as the [[Cell phone]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] versions, have changed it to Disruptive Wave. ==Gallery== <center><gallery> DQX Disruptive Wave.jpg|Zoma using Disruptive Wave in {{X}}. </gallery></center> {{clear}} {{DQSkills}} [[Category:Skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest IV skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest V skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest VI skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest VII skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest IX skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest X skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters 2 skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2 skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry's Wonderland 3D skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters 2: Iru and Luca's Marvelous Mysterious Key skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Monsters: Super Light skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Heroes skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Heroes II skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest of the Stars skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Rivals skills]] [[Category:Dragon Quest Tact skills]]
