(staff) infernal meteor damage is buged. (way too low than intended.)

[steelwork]

Atm i can deal more than 6K with a charged fireball.
meteor? 2.2k maximum.
with the time it takes to launch one, i wouldn't be surprised to deal more dmg with auto attacks.

the meteor burst damage should be just below a fully charged fireball (at same upgrade tier.) from the numbers in the description. but that's not the case rn.

to all staff users, don't use meteor until they fixed its damage. you are actually loosing dps.

[~T~D~]

Funny you say that now, cause i was just playing around with it and thought exactly the same.

[1st]

same, its twice lower than was on kr

[SkFy]

Yes not even using it atm its useless waste of mana

more like around 30% the damage it should do.

yep :/

[Churrosaurio]

agree

If you see a staff user using Meteor, you know he is noob.

For single target pve boss Ice Spear with specialization 1 and 3 is the only alternative, assuming you're already using the best Single target skills, but still does less damage per cooldown time than a meteor rain with specialization 1 and 2, and they cost the same spec points. Its best damage is when big hitbox bosses so all 12 meteors strike the boss, otherwise it's useless

Get the spec that turns it into a rain of fire. You want that to reach 10 burning stacks with ease, which will benefit one of your passives and it also scales your heavy attack chance.

the only situation where meteor isn't complete trash and ONLY vs an unmoving big boss target... too situational.
however you may be better off just using everything else instead as you will always have an ability to cast if you manage your rotatoin well.

by the time you cast your meteor shower, you already casted multiple other spells in those 3s with way more damage in the end. the only issue is mana management. but if you want the most damage you can deal in a full spell rotation, meteor is out of the window.

in the end, the problem is still here: infernal meteor (not the upgrade. tho it is so niche that you may not use it anyway) is useless.

I noticed the same , im specced for insta casts and having such a cast time on that ultimate is just a waste of time and reduces my dps by a ton..

As per Whelps, a KR Staff Bow content creator. Meteor Shower does more dps than Ice Spear unless you miss Meteors even including cast time

by the time you launched your meteor shower you already casted many other spells.

ice spears doesn't take a 3s cast time.

I don't know why you quoted my comment if you are going to ignore the central point

You do it for the ignite stacks.

[Rizzly]

You have max stacks after a fireball + 1 or 2 inferno wave. Burning stacks don't matter except the first seconds of a fight lmao

[decazxx]

Anyone who plays staff knows that meteor only used for burn stacks because of passive no1 use it as dps skill
