FFIX Meteor

Meteor in Final Fantasy IX.

Time magick that warps space-time, causing an enormous meteor to fall on the battlefield.

Meteor (メテオ, Meteo?, lit. Meteor), also known as Meteo, Desolator (ミーティア, Mītia?), and Shake, is a recurring spell in the Final Fantasy series. Usually one of the strongest spells, it summons a barrage of meteorites to bombard enemies. It either does high non-elemental damage, or hits for mediocre damage multiple times. Meteor's downgraded form is Comet, which sometimes acts as a replacement for Meteor when Meteor is not a usable spell. Meteor is often the Black Magic equivalent and opposite of the Holy spell as the Ultimate Black Magic in games where the spell Flare is not considered as such.

Meteor is an important plot device in Final Fantasy IV, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy XIV, and Final Fantasy Dimensions. Some chocobos can use a version of the spell called Choco Meteor, while other enemies can use a version known as Meteorite. The spell is generally used by strong enemies, namely by the Behemoth class.

Appearances[]

Final Fantasy III[]

Meteor in Final Fantasy III (Pixel Remaster).

Meteor is a level 8 Black Magic spell, being one of the strongest offensive spells for the category. It deals non-elemental damage to all foes, although its damage is lesser than the single target Flare. The spell can be used by the Magus and Sage jobs in all versions. It can be bought in Eureka for 60,000 gil.

In the original Famicom version, it has set numerical value ranges for how much damage it will deal, with the values being based on the user's job level. The following are Meteor's damage values from the Famicom release:[1]

Job level Damage value
1 - 19 360 HP
20 - 39 640 HP
40 - 59 1280 HP
60 - 79 1760 HP
80 - 98 2080 HP

Final Fantasy IV[]

FF4PSP Meteor

Meteor in Final Fantasy IV: The Complete Collection.

The legendary ultimate spell, Meteor is both the strongest Black Magic spell and a major plot device. It is a legendary spell Tellah suspects is sealed away on Mount Ordeals because of tremendous power emanating from the area.

Meteor has a casting time of 10, taking several turns to charge, but deals tremendous damage to all enemies. It costs 99 MP. In the 2D versions the damage is Holy-elemental, but in the 3D remakes it deals non-elemental damage. It has a spell power of 800 in the 2D versions, and 250 in 3D versions. Against most enemies, this translates to 9,999 damage or close. If the user has the Break Damage Limit ability, it may do more. Only Zeromus (2D and 3D) has access to the spell against the party. Rydia can use Meteor when she gets to level 60 in 2D versions, and level 80 in the 3D remakes. Palom learns it on level 55 in 2D versions. Tellah learns it after the events of Mount Ordeals, but his MP limit of 90 prevents the player from ever casting it as him without using an MP underflow glitch.

In the Easy Type version, the casting time was reduced to 5.

Final Fantasy IV -Interlude-[]

Meteor is a Black Magic spell that deals extreme Holy-elemental damage to all enemies at the cost of 99 MP. It can be learned by Palom (level 50). The real Rydia lacks the spell when she participates in the final battle.

Meteor in Final Fantasy VI (Pixel Remaster).

Meteor is an Attack spell learned from Odin at a x1 rate and Crusader at a x10 rate and learned naturally by Celes (level 98). It costs 63 MP to cast and deals non-elemental damage to all enemies. It has a power of 36 and ignores Magic Defense and split damage. Meteor is a multi-targeting spell, but when used as an Added Ability from the Stardust Rod, it will only hit the attacked target, making it a single-targeting Meteor. The spell is shown as meteorites flying through space.

Meteor can be cast by Brachiosaur, Cherry, Great Behemoth, Kefka (final boss), Level 90 Magic, Lunatys, Tyrannosaur, and Ultima Buster. A stronger version of the ability can be used by Behemoth, Guardian, Intangir, Rest, Demon, Behemoth King in both forms, Dark Behemoth, Kaiser Dragon, Omega Weapon, and Ultima Weapon. This version can only be used by the party through Rage by selecting the Tyrannosaur.

Meteor.

Meteor is not a usable spell, but an important plot point. Comet and Comet2 serve as substitutes for purposes of gameplay.

Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-[]

Omega Weiss can use Meteor. The spell is only labeled in the game's guide, created by a third-party company, and has been dubbed Omega Meteor by fans to fit the naming pattern of the ultimate attacks of the other Weapon enemies in the Compilation.

Final Fantasy VIII[]

FFVIII Meteor

Meteor in Final Fantasy VIII.

Meteor deals small damage at ten separate intervals, which are divided between targets at random. Each instance of damage has a spell power of 20. On a single target, such as most bosses, Meteor will do more damage than Ultima, barring a low Magic stat against a high Spirit target. It doling out its damage across multiple hits also allows it to deal more than 9999 total damage. Its damage output is less impressive against multiple targets, where Ultima will generally outpace it.

Meteor can be drawn from a number of high level monsters, and refined from items using Bahamut's Forbid Mag-RF ability. Certain enemies, such as Behemoth, Torama and Omega Weapon, use the spell against the party.

Boko can also use ChocoMeteor if the player has trained him in the Chocobo World.

Final Fantasy IX[]

Meteor is a Black Magic spell cast by Vivi for 42 MP learned from the High Mage Staff for 95 AP. It deals random damage with chance of doing extreme damage, or nothing at all. Meteor ignores Magic Defense and can miss.

Deathguise and the superboss Ozma can cast Meteor (respectively dealing 50-4900 damage and 110-9999 damage), and Behemoth will sometimes use a version called Meteor Counter when attacked (dealing 50-4750 damage). They never miss when used by enemies and cost 40 MP to cast, as opposed to Vivi's 42. The only way to reduce their damage is by using Shell or inflicting Mini to Behemoth. Both Meteor and Counter Meteor can't be reflected although Return Magic triggers on Meteor.

Zidane also has a SFX version of Meteor called Medeo during the sword fight at the beginning of the game.

Final Fantasy X[]

The Behemoth King will cast Meteor on the party when it dies. It is not available to the party. Meteor is a physical attack.

Final Fantasy X-2[]

The bosses Humbaba and Trema use the spell Meteor, which is a powerful magical attack that hits random targets 12 times. When used by Ultima Weapon (Oversoul) and Trema, Meteor is a physical attack that hits random targets and takes 12.5% off the target's max HP per hit, but the damage can be halved with Protect and reduced to 1 HP damage with Warrior's Sentinel.

In the International and HD Remaster versions, various bosses, including Lulu, Major Numerus, and Seymour, can cast Meteor. Once Lulu, Almighty Shinra, and Seymour join the party through the Creature Creator system, they can learn it. If the player has a Chocobo in the party, it can learn Meteor after reaching level 40 by having an open ability slot and being hit by a finishing attack, like Meteor, Flare, Ultima, or Holy, making it a very useful party member throughout the game.

Meteor can be taught to a creature by consuming one Dark Matter. Creatures consume 99 MP when casting Meteor.

Jobs BLM 99

Meteor is a spell available to level 99 Black Mages. It damages enemies within an area of effect. Multiple Black Mages in possession of the spell can join in another player's casting, dramatically increasing the spell's damage and changing its visual effects, similar to the opening movie depicting a group of Tarutaru Black Mages channeling a meteor.

The spell was originally only available to a select few Hyper Notorious Monsters including most of the Behemoth-class monsters, Promathia, Absolute Virtue, and even Shantotto. The enemy variant deals devastating area Dark-based elemental damage to all targets within a massive range. It was the primary reason Absolute Virtue remained unbeatable while the level cap was anchored at 75 prior to 2010.

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII[]

Meteor is an ability used by Ereshkigal. The spell has considerable charge time, beginning with "Words of power intoned" through to "Invoking meteor". It deals fixed damage that can only be mitigated by Perfect Guarding because it is neither a physical or magical ability. It begins by dealing 3,000 damage and every subsequent time deals multiples of 3,000, meaning if the battle drags out, the attack is a guaranteed kill.

Final Fantasy XIV[]

FFXIV Mor Dhona Dalamud

Dalamud being called down with Project Meteor.

Meteor was a major plot point revolving around the Seventh Umbral Era. Cid believed the Garlean Empire was planning to use the spell to purge Eorzea of the primals, and the change of color of the moon Dalamud was the first step towards that goal. Nael van Darnus of the Empire was working on the classified "Project Meteor" for at least the last ten years to uncover the secrets of the spell once known by the Allagans, an ancient civilization wiped out in the Fourth Umbral Era.

As Final Fantasy XIV prepared for A Realm Reborn, Dalamud advanced towards Eorzea. Each patch up until the conclusion of the original game in November 2012 depicted Dalamud ever closer to impact, until it dominated the sky and affected the weather in 1.23.

Meteor appears in A Realm Reborn as a gameplay element in three variants as the level 1, 2 and 3 Limit Break for Caster classes in the form of Skyshard, Starstorm and Meteor, which deal damage with a potencies of 1650, 3600 and 6150 to the target area, respectively. Following the release of the Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward expansion, every class was given a unique level 3 Limit Break, making Meteor exclusive to Black Mage, though it functions the same as level 3 Limit Breaks for other caster classes. The King Behemoth uses a variant called Ecliptic Meteor; players must take cover behind rocks to avoid certain death.

Kefka learns the aerial and ground versions of his Meteor both at Level 31, and both versions cost 30 CP to use and 180 AP for mastery. Kefka, when using Meteor, will flail his arms about and screech insanely.

Terra's Meteor, although still an HP attack, requires her to be in a charged state to use it. Kefka's Meteor summons a shower of meteorites that track the opponent. The Emperor's Starfall is now his EX Skill, though it does not deal HP damage, is smaller in size and does not draw the target in, and it lasts much longer. Sephiroth's Black Materia remains an HP attack and can be performed in midair, but it cannot be charged and doesn't draw the target in.

Meteor's ability icon.

Meteor is a Rank 5 Black Magic ability that deals three massive magic non-elemental attacks to all targets. It requires Major Black, Non-Elemental, Fire, and Earth Orbs to craft and hone its uses. However, due to its non-elemental nature and the release of higher tier Black Magic spells, Meteor is often considered a weak ability to forge.

Originally Meteor dealt a single heavy non-elemental magic attack to all targets, but its effect was changed in later updates to deal more damage and multiple hits.

Additionally, certain Soul Breaks involve characters casting their original game's variants of Meteor on enemies, notable examples include Tellah's Dire Meteor, Maria's Meteor XIV, and Y'shtola's Scion's Meteor.

Certain event and end-game bosses also have access to alternate versions of Meteor as enemy abilities. The ability's damage varies depending on the difficulty of the encounter, but it generally deals heavy magic non-elemental damage to all members of the player party.

When using his Meteor attack in Kingdom Hearts II, Sephiroth rises into the air and extends a hand. A red orb of energy with a black aura appears and summons a barrage of meteorites to attack Sora. Due to the orb's color, dark aura and power to summon meteorites, this likely alludes to the Black Materia.

In Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance it appears as an obtainable magic command for Terra and Riku, summoning a meteor down to crash towards the ground onto enemies.

Etymology[]

A meteor or "shooting star" is the visible streak of light from a meteoroid or micrometeoroid, heated and glowing from entering the Earth's atmosphere, as it sheds glowing material in its wake. Meteors rarely explode in the Earth's atmosphere. The term has become associated with quickness with the adjective "meteoric". In the context of myth and superstition, meteors and comets sighted in Ancient and Medieval Europe were once held as ill omen, said to be the message of the heavens' displeasure of man's affairs to herald grave catastrophes.

Pieces that withstand atmospheric ablation are known as meteorites, but the name of the spell in the series refers to the overall phenomenon.

Therefore, the use of the term meteor is incorrect in most Final Fantasy games, as pieces that withstand ablation from atmospheric entry and impact with the ground are called a meteorites rather than meteors.
