Earth, also known as Quake or QAKE, is an element in Final Fantasy. Earth is a rare element used exclusively to inflict instant KO. No enemies are weak against Earth, while many resist it, limiting its usefulness to players, but the potentially devastating effects of Earthquake make protection against it a must-have late in the game.
