    Not that any of it matters (I use the faster (to type) version too), just saying you really have no reason to complain about it, when she's doing it right and you're using lazy hacks.
    I didn't attack her and no reason you should be attacking me, I was saying she was being silly. Get off your high horse and lighten up. using a lazy hack?... how is it a hack if I'm using ingame mechanics the way it can be done? Sorry if I attacked your dream girl or something, but she's fully capable of defending herself if she felt offended.

    Yup, those ones. The ones that cast Meteor.

    Stepped on an imaginery toe, I see. I wasn't defending her, I was just disputing your assessment. Lazy hacks are just any mechanisms you use that abbreviate the original (formal) procedure, even if they're provided by the product itself. And I already said that I'm using it too. Lazy hacks are implemented by programmers to make life faster and more convenient, hence lazy. If you think that's more of an attack than calling someone silly over doing something the proper (if inconvenient) way, then I have nothing else to say to you. People get so easily offended sometimes, it's ridiculous. Whatever. Lost interest, moving on.

    Currently Meteor is set as a non-elemental spell, therefore none of the elemental staves will increase damage other than the INT. This may change to be the latter of the spells found in the dats, but the current Meteor which now has help text is non-elemental. Therefore the best non-Mythic staff for Meteor is Dorje.

    Oh, my bad, I've seen the lower dark-elemental spell and assumed you were talking about that, hence the confusion.

    Meteor was always non-elemental, at least it looks like SE have stuck to it so far.

    While the stave issue is annoying, if done properly then Meteor should ignore all defences, and should be rather powerful with the six BLM mages.
