Comet

I meant an AoE version of that "line" meant for a solo BLM. Comet obviously isn't AoE. Meteor obviously isn't for a solo BLM either. Meteor's viewed by some as an "AoE" version of Comet, myself included.

Since this spell does absurd amount of damage 60-80k no doubt it will be extremely hard to obtain. If they're making Arise 'extremely difficult to obtain such that only a few WHMs will have it" then I can almost guarantee they will make Meteor hard to get because 60-80k damage ever 8-9 minutes is probably more broken than Arise can be.

Arise isn't even broken. It's just a nifty spell that's different. If it granted no weakness and full HP, then, yes, it would be broken IMHO.

Honestly, I'm not sure. If they want people to be able to experience Meteor the way it's intended to be used, it can't be TOO difficult. The damage would imply it would be, yes, and it wouldn't surprise me if it ended up that way. Also since it's non-elemental, and the reality that not many BLM will have a Laevateinn, let alone do one, it'll be slightly weaker than we are discovering, as we all know MAB+60 on one item is "huge". I don't see it doing 60-80k when it hits the live servers, and some tests I've read have involved a few 99 Laevateinns. I'd say a more "realistic" test would involve grabbing the lv99 INT/MAB staves, as they'd be more common than even Dorjes. Heck, even Maleficus, as much as wearing one to nuke in makes me shudder as a serious BLM. Personal stigma against the sight of it, I guess.
