An Earthquake (or simply Quake) is a new Hazard introduced in both Scourge of Armagon and Dissolution of Eternity. Earthquakes are only briefly mentioned in the manual for Scourge of Armagon, but they are specifically listed as a hazard in that of Dissolution of Eternity. Earthquakes make the screen rumble, and they cause the player to bounce and move automatically, making it harder to control Ranger. While they are not injurious in and of themselves, they can lead somebody into another Hazard, such as Lava, and they make dodging projectiles more difficult.

In Scourge of Armagon, the first one is encountered in HIP1M1 shortly after somebody launches a Rockets into the underwater pipe. In Dissolution of Eternity, the first one there can be experienced when attempting to access the hard Difficulty in Introduction.
