Meteor Feedback

Apparently the test information hasn't filtered over. Here's the final damage from a series of 7 tests using 6 blms (each using different gear, and varying cast order each time to determine the combination effect), courtesy of Byrth:

Yes, 60k damage from 6 blms, so an average of 10k damage each by contributing to this spell. This is not a solo spell, but it's far from useless.

Look here for more details.

With that damage, it's even MP efficient! And of course is the perfect candidate for a Parsimony charge, so...

Parsimony? use Manawell.

Has anyone bothered to test the AoE radius? Is it just the same as any normal AoE spell? Is meteor still subject to -10% damage per target?

Edit: latter question was answered in that thread, and it actually seems to lose a little more damage on multiple targets than other spells.

Parsimony? use Manawell.

Oh! So true, I keep forgetting about that one.

Actually this one has been bugging me. I don't see why Meteor isn't just given an MP cost of 99999 and not limited by Elemental Seal. This way you'd be able to cast it with Manawell or under Manafont. Perhaps the devs wanted Manawell to be used tactically on other players in the party as well or something, however it would be nice if Meteor was castable under Manafont regardless of if Elemental Seal had been used or not.

Holy crap, that's awesome. Seriously. I should've checked BG.

did you already have a Laevateinn 99 or am i just missing the moogle that gives 99 relics/mythics/and such out?

The magian moogle can give them out. Check Trial # that rewards it > view reward > it asks if you want to obtain the item > profit.

ok thank you. i had heard someone say a while ago they got one and i had no idea how. does that include empy weapons too? was wondering if there was a way to test the new relics and stuff when they added the 99s to test server.

Yes, every weapon on every stage of the trials that goes through magian moogle (relic/empy/mythic/fake WoE/elemental path weapons). Have fun.
