Forum:Skill Drain Questions

Scenario: Skill Drain is active on the field and there is a face-up monster on the field equipped with ["Double Tool C&D"].

My question is: how exactly does Skill Drain interact with equip spell cards? Do the equip spell cards like ["Double Tool C&D"] grant an effect to the equipped monster, and are thus negated by ["Skill Drain"], or is any effect / attack boost granted by the equipment instead considered a part of the spell and thus not negated?

And one more question:

If Skill Drain is on the field, ["Beast King Barbaros"] is normal summoned with no tributes as a 1900, he becomes a 3000 attack monster through skill drain's negation. What happens to his attack if skill drain leaves the field? Hidoisan 20:00, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
