How to Use Comet Materia Effectively:
Comet Materia summons a storm of non-elemental magical comets that bombard the battlefield, dealing moderate AoE damage. The exact landing spots of each comet have some randomness, but most enemies will be hit, with larger foes potentially being struck multiple times. Upon reaching 3,000 AP, the materia levels up to cast Cometeor, which summons larger, more damaging meteors with better coverage.
While powerful, Comet Materia has drawbacks. Against single targets, an -aga tier elemental spell might deal more damage; for example, with 300+ Magic Attack, enemies like the Great Malboro can take 9,999 damage from Blizzaga, which Comet or Cometeor cannot match. Comet Materia does not target elemental weaknesses, making it ineffective for pressuring certain enemies. Furthermore, Comet costs 29 MP to cast, and Cometeor costs 37 MP, which can be a significant drain even for characters with high MP.
- To mitigate the high MP cost, pair Comet Materia with Synergy Materia and equip it on a natural caster like Aerith. This allows her to cast Comet without consuming ATB or MP when you use an offensive ability.
- Consider pairing Comet Materia with Magic Efficiency Materia to reduce MP costs by up to 50% after leveling the support materia significantly.
- MP Absorption Materia can also help offset MP costs, though it requires substantial AP investment to be effective.
- Synergy Materia is a stable pairing. When paired with Comet Materia, the character equipped will cast Comet for free (no ATB or MP cost) every time an offensive command that consumes ATB is used. This provides a potent AoE option for a designated mage like Aerith, without micromanagement.
