    Howdy!

    Based on the results of testing, we are planning to make the below adjustments to Meteor.

    •Addition of cumulative resistance
    When repeatedly casting Meteor on notorious monsters, cumulative resistance will develop and the damage of Meteor will be lowered for a certain amount of time.
    ※This cumulative resistance is only for Meteor.

    •Enmity adjustments
    Currently, the last person to cast Meteor gains almost all of the enmity, but we are making adjustments so that all of the players who cast Meteor will generate enmity. The amount of enmity that each player will receive will be based on the order of casting, with the greatest amount of enmity falling to the player who cast last.

    This will be reflected on the test server tomorrow as long as everything goes smooth.

    I can't take it. It's my personal pet peeve of doom...

    "Casted" is not a word! Past tense of "cast" is still "cast"!

    I seem to have upset the grammar professor. Just this once I will grant you your wish and edit my post :P

    Why would you add cumulative resistance to something that can only be cast once every 10 minutes, AND has a group cast effect?

    So that you wouldn't be able to rotate in a small army of BLMs to keep casting it.

    Based on the test server's damage numbers so far an alliance of BLMs could do 150K damage in a few minutes.

    3 Parties of 6 BLM's would be lethal.

    I feel as though that would be an unrealistic setup to count on as a win condition for any 95+ content.

    Perhaps, but by blocking the potential it blocks them mega-nerfing it like Modus Veritas.

    Because they don't want endgame to become a 18 BLM only thing?
