Starfall has no proper name in its first appearance, with the text box simply stating that the foe has summoned meteors to flatten the party. It deals 80~96 damage to the entire party, and utilizes the Rock/Strike attribute that [[Knuckle Sandwich]] and [[Boulder Toss]] do. This means [[Jessica]] has an innate 25% resistance. It can be used by Rhapthorne and the [[Darksteel dragon]], as well as [[Ultrus]] if he has been [[Call Team|summoned]].

Starfall gained an actual title in ''IX'', being used by [[Tyrannosaura Wrecks]] and Rapthorne once he reaches level 28. The damage for the former is 180~219, and Rhapthorne's exact calculation is ''(50 + 5 * level) * 0.9~1.1''; meaning the minimum range is 180~220 and the upper limit is 490~599. It targets the whole party and bears the Earth attribute, so make sure to wear armor that can stifle soil when battling a beastie that uses the skill.

 

[[Vermil lion]]s use Starfall, dealing 180~210 earth damage to characters in a certain radius around it.

Starfall appears as [[Meena Mahabala]]'s [[Coup de Grâce]] ability when she is in High Tension mode. She channels her crystal ball that then shows a vision of a meteor shower filling the sky. She then casts that foreseen barrage of meteors onto the foes in front of her.

Starfall deals physical damage in the ''Monsters'' spinoff games, possessing the light and darkness elements at the same time and using the least-resisted element for damage calculation. It is learned via Rhapthorne and [[Nelgel]]'s skillsets.
