Meteodrive (PvP) is an action unlocked at level 30. It is available for Monk.
Notes
- Although the help text makes reference to the target "being unable to move" (implying a Bind-like effect), the Meteodrive status effect is effectively a three-second stun wherein the target is completely unable to act during the animation.
- Damage is inflicted at the end of the animation. Therefore it is possible for the target to already be KO'ed by other incoming damage before Meteodrive's damage is applied.
