So seeing that topic about Dark Meteor being a huge disappointment in vanilla and chatting about it in local yesterday made me want to make this:
Main selling point that is a lie: free grants special, along with the single largest largest attack tech boost in the game!
Its pretty much advertised as an uber IMO as well but it is worthless.
What it actually is: the special is a low level grants special that is only 1/2 the power or so as a high level normal one complete with far less range as well to work with (fan instead of a circle for a casting of grants and the fan has less range in general cause its a low level grants anyway).
The tech boost is a 50% boost to gibarta, which while it is the single highest tech boost in vanilla, its on the game's worse tech anyway.
To add insult to it: tp drain and the thing is combo locked as well in vanilla.
What beats it:
-Merc Rod for one. Hildeblue Head for Gibarta lol. Dark Bridge for more of an uncommon thing.
What could have been:
-The thing having a grants boost for one to use its special! Having more tech boosts and stuff like 1/2 tp cast like the other 2 uber rods for another. Really there is so much that could have made this weapon awesome

Main lying selling point: wait a bit and you have a high power attack that can hit 5 times in an attack. This card has more atp than any other card and more base ata as well.
Its another uber in rareness item that is 100% worthless. You need 2 rare items (one of which needs hit and lots of it) to use it.
What it actually is: the attack is done in a line even though it is spinning around you that A. could miss a target right in front of you cause the attack happens to be spinning around in default. B. has normal accuracy stat mods. C. doesn't do pierce damage so it won't hit more than 1 target anyway. D. The special is geist.
To add insult to it: the attack is very slow in charging, like think you can only attack 1 time in a minute slow that goes away when you switch weapons!
What beats it:
-Um, guardianna, gal wind, s-rank cards...Hitogata itself lol and its a bad weapon overall even.
What could have been:
-2 things: The attack could have just not been "combo locked" and instead of a line attack could have been the cards spinning around you to attack.
The thing taking forever to charge and not having a special and running off normal accuracy mods could have been forgiven I feel if the thing could use one combo before needing a recharge again. I mean 15 hits on a single target, with some of them being hard hits with a weapon with 350 base power would have been sweet!
