EQ spell clarification.

lvl3 spell destroys 10% so 10x4 = 40% walls.

So, shouldn't 3 lvl3 walls be able to destroy ANY kind of wall?

I have had 3 lvl3 eq spells fail to destroy blue walls. :(

Bro, can you look at the millions of other posts about this damn spell...they "math" is obviously not correct but has been cleared up countless times...

Says so in the patch notes. Don't try to look at the math. It will make your head hurt.

They no longer do 4x damage which is stupid.
Four of them take out any wall.

EQ spell deals 25% damage to first thing it hits, then 25/3 then 25/5 and 25/7 if you keep placing it on the same place. Thus, not even with 300 EQ spells you can destroy a building.

BUT...on walls it works the OPPOSITE way, increasing damage to the walls not diminishing.

Hope that clears it up. EQ spell still takes 4 to get rid of any walls and it can be any level.

So, I saw a post at one point saying "Do not upgrade the Earthquake spell". If it takes 4 EQ spells of any level to take out walls, why would anyone upgrade. SC loses money if so.

Because higher level EQs do more damage to buildings.

I have never seen ppl use them with much success. Would it be better for a 2 slot max rage be better on some pekkas/wiz or 2 lvl 3/4 EQ spells?

I was really confused after I saw SC's statement regarding this spell after today's patch.

Thank you for clearing up the matter.

Edit: Another question: so, even 4 base EQ spells will destroy a zap?

Yes. 4 EQ spells, any level, will destroy a wall, any level. Always been that way. What apparently has changed is the amount of damage done if you drop fewer than 4 spells. Walls are supposed to get increasing amounts of damage from each successive spell, and buildings decreasing amounts of damage from each successive spell.
