We don't know anything about it yet.

It might be something that relies more on skill than INT for damage.

It might be something that has a flat DMG base anyway.

It might be damage with reductions on it (more mobs you hit it with, the less damage you do)

We don't know anything about it at all, for all we know it could be the only "Light" based black magic skill.

i disagree . we know when Mobs like Behemoth and KB and AV use it everyone dies . Alot . It also seems to have a HUGE AoE . if anything it will lend some insight on its mechanics so we can better prepare for or nullify some/most of it's dmg . amiright?

Meteor used by mobs is light based, that is if it is the same spell, but I believe it will be, otherwise we know nothing about it.

Meteo/Meteor/Atmonium/Ultima were non elemental based spells

Apocalypse was dark based & what we seen as "Sideral" in my langage was Light.

I believe in IV it was Holy/Light based, but in the DS release it was None ele.

As for others idk.

Don't even joke about that -.- I'm hoping it stays Light-based so I can sit back and laugh at the mad scramble for Apollo's Staff. Wondering how much it'll get toned down though, the mob version of it is pretty brutal and has a ~30' splash range from the target.

Hell, would be epic if they didn't tone it down at all...

Could someone please post all of their SE confirmed sources because I didn't find jack on the Vana Fest site or POL site.

And to all the people saying active only in manafont with a 3m cast time 10m recast 1kMP post the source or get a life (Sorry Jimbob).

And when was the last time Black Magic came close to the magic of an HNM. You aren't factoring in resistances, Mob Skill/INT, Player level vs. Mob level or really anything to produce even basic information. Take 1000 Needles for example. No matter what situation, it cannot be evaded only reduced slightly. Now take the Blue Magic spell. It lands less than 10% of the time with MAX Skill and Magic Accuracy gear on anything higher than T.

Meteo (Aka: Meteor) has been several elementals in the past.

FFII[US]: Light Elemental
FFIII: Earth Elemental
FFIV: Non-Elemental
FFV: Gravity-Based(Not a specific Element.)
FFVI: Non-Elemental(Mob) Assumed to be Non-Elemental(PC)
FFVIII: Non-Elemental
FFIX: Non-Elemental
FFX: Non-Elemental
FFXII: Non-Elemental(or Aether)

By majority it is non-elemental.
It has a chance to be Light or Earth elemental... Really depends on how SE wants it to be calculated in the game when being casted by a blm.

There is no speculation in it. If you'll look at it, VanaFest_EN Team did not say anything along the lines of 'I think' or 'Maybe'. But SE does state that most of the things that they said CAN be changed at any time. Also to kill any other responses to that, http://www.zam.com/story.html?story=21769

Technically, Meteor has always been one the strongest spells in FF. (Except for Vivi's Meteor.... Miss or Hit ftl.) and has always taken a huge ammount of mp for each cast... SO it could be plausable. But also a waste of a 2hr if they keep the cast time the way it is.... 25 seconds to cast 1 spell {No Thanks.}

Up for debate about it being in use only in Manafront as you can use alot of Tier IV, AM spells or w/e in that time and could well produce more damage than 1 Meteor could.

Manifestation doesn't work with Elemental magic, only Black magic Enfeebles(doesn't work with para, slow, or silence) and dark magic.

Accession works only with Healing, and Enhancing magic.

its why you cant make -Helix spells aga spells.

I just think that the 3 knobs who were overseas doing the play by play, either screwed up, or something wrong was with twitter....

1. I never use twitter( call me oldschool)
2. Did the 3 muskateer's do a good job with their feeds? IDK <shrugs>.

That's why we will never know, Just have to sit and wait for the ride to begin!
