'''Meteor''' is a [[Wizard skill]] unlocked at [[clvl|Level]] 24. This skill is among the Wizard's most damaging, calling down a huge flaming stone that deals massive damage, as well as leaving a burning circle that deals [[AoE]] damage to anything in the vicinity.
==Background==
Calling upon the elements, the [[Wizard]] unleashes a [[fire|fiery]] meteor from the sky which crushes anything unfortunate enough to be in the way when it hits.
==Skill Effects==
The following is a very quick list. See the [[Meteor rune effects]] page for a more thorough summary of rune effects, or any of the individual rune pages for numbers, screenshots, blue quotes, and much more.

==Skill Design==
Meteor returns from [[Diablo II]], with its function largely preserved. Once again it's a falling rock from the sky that deals huge fire damage. The [[skill]] is mighty, but the delay between the casting and the rock's arrival requires skill and anticipation on the part of the Wizard to hit accurately with it.
