Meteor

Am I the only one who finds it weird requiring "elemental" seal if it's non-elemental?

That would hafta be because it's technically all elements, would cancel it out to no elements.

Since it's non elemental, can you confirm whether or no the proposed "Prism Staff" will work with it. Atm I'm assuming not since Meteor has no elemental affinity.

General gist from a reply on the Japanese section is: Affinity will have no effect as it's non-elemental, so no.

As the Prism staff states: (Affinity: magic attack +2, magic accuracy +2, avatar perpetuation cost -3)

Actually, it would be quite hilarious if Prism Staff worked on this. That would turn it from an item that was designed to reduce inventory strain into an item that simply adds to it, because for maximum efficiency you'd have to have eight other staves plus this one for Meteor.

Not that I believe it would work like that, just like the irony in it.

Is Comet non-elemental damage? No, it's dark-element, right? Why not make Meteor the same... That would make sense.

I foresee this bit working out really well for folks who enjoy bleak comedies and schadenfreude and really poorly for Black Mages who enjoy fully upgraded Magian staffs and things that aren't worse than Blizzard V.

Can Square add a poster Hall of Fame so we can immediately induct SpankWustler?

I don't think it's that unlikely. Neutral Attack Bonus has been in the game for a while, so Affinity: Neutral would cover Meteor.

Also, Prism Staff isn't meant for maximum efficiency but maximum economy.

If SE wont nerf Meteor's dmg, then:

BLM/SCH using:
- Manifestation
- Manawell (also 10min recast)

will be fun as hell.

I don't see why Manifestation would work on it.

It won't, doesn't work on anything SCH can't get main or /subjob.
