That is what took me to open a meteor, Good Job Funcom! Always improving the game!!
You need to aim at the top of the meteor. If you toss a demonfire orb at it, and it doesn’t turn glow-scarred, move on… that one won’t be worth it.
Normally meteors crack open with this method:
Demonfire -> 25 seconds -> Tar ->25 seconds -> Tar ->25 seconds -> Poison finisher
But now that Tar doesn’t stack, you need to do:
Demonfire -> 25 seconds -> Demonfire -> 25 seconds -> Poison finisher
If the meteor cracks before a poison finisher, use a water orb to douse the flames.
If it’s a complicated angle, throw a few water orbs first to get the trajectory right, then use the expensive stuff.
L2P before blaming Funcom.
Dude, before starting to blaming stop sucking at gaming… 
or use a single jar, done.
lol, so true.
