Meteor

[edit] TimeToGetIntense's Issue -- 10:48, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Issue

While it has a strong effect, it has too many hurdles to jump through. 3 second casting time, 30 second recharge, exhaustion, misses foes moving faster than normal. Also, it has a really bad looking visual. >.<

Suggestion

Lower cast time to 2 seconds, lower recharge time to 20 seconds, improve visual effect to look like one of the meteors from Meteor Shower.

[edit] Outclassed by Shock

Issue

Meteor is just plain bad.

Suggestion

Remove exhaustion. It won't be overpowered since you can dodge it with a run buff and it has a 30 second recharge which is effectively the same as shock. It has 3 second casting time too.
