So... given an infinite supply of Earthquake Spells... how much would it take to destroy a building? (assuming that the formula's damage is correct, and no rounding)

Level 4 is stated there as 420, but I believe it is one less, at 419.

Level 3 Earthquakes, is something you wouldn't expect; you would need 1921 level 3 Earthquakes just to destroy a building!

Level 2 Earthquakes would be even more jaw dropping: 18,056!

Level 1 Earthquake Spells, don't bother asking me again after I give the number. That number is... 143,974.

Yeah, you're better off using Lightning Spells to damage buildings now.

The costs of performing such feats (if you could and if you dared, I'm doubtful you can drop 144,000 spells within 3 minutes, even with a turbo button or something. Unless you're attacking the goblin maps, but you'll probably be disconnected by the server before you even finish):

Using level 1 Earthquake Spells: 143,974 spells * 125 DE/spell = 17,996,750 DE, or basically twice as expensive as upgrading all the DE troops and Heroes combined, from level 1 to max level.

Using level 2 Earthquake Spells: 18,056 spell * 140 DE/spell = 2,527,840 DE, roughly the cost of upgrading the Archer Queen from level 1 to 31.

Using level 3 Earthquake Spells: 1,921 spells * 160 DE/spell = 307,360 DE, roughly the cost of upgrading the Archer Queen from 29 to 31.

Using level 4 Earthquake Spells: 419 spells * 180 DE/spell = 75,420 DE, or simply the cost of upgrading the Archer Queen to level 15, as well as brewing 3 Poison Spells.
