Quake (クエイク, Kueiku?) is a recurring Black Magic spell in the Final Fantasy series. It usually deals Earth-elemental damage to one or all opponents, and may not affect flying enemies, depending on the game. It has two stronger versions, Quakra and Quaga, and a counterpart exclusive to enemies called Earthquake.

Generally in games where the Earth element exists, the counter-spell Float is available to avoid taking damage.

The attack can also be dodged.

Final Fantasy VIIIEdit

Quake is an Earth-elemental spell that hits all targets, but is not effective against flying and earth-based enemies; the latter ones will absorb the damage.
