Previously Official Rulings

You cannot double the effect of "Fairy Meteor Crush" by equipping two copies to the same monster.

If you equip your "Fairy Meteor Crush" to an opponent's monster, and it attacks a Defense Position monster on your side of the field with ATK greater than your monster's DEF, the opponent will take the difference as Battle Damage. This is because "your opponent" is the opponent of the player who controls "Fairy Meteor Crush" not necessarily the opponent of the player who controls the monster.

"Kuriboh" or "Waboku" can be used to prevent the damage caused by "Fairy Meteor Crush" because it is Battle Damage.

Amazoness Swords Woman: the controller of "Spear Dragon" takes damages when "Spear Dragon" battle"Amazoness Swordswoman" (or the controller of a monster equipped with "Fairy Meteor Crush").

Decayed Commander: "Decayed Commander" does not activate its card-discarding effect if destroyed with "Ring of Destruction", or if it attacks a face-down monster while equipped with "Fairy Meteor Crush", or due to reflect damage from "Relinquished", etc.

Dragon's Rage: If you attack with "Spear Dragon" or a Dragon-Type monster equipped with "Fairy Meteor Crush", the difference between your monster's ATK and the attacked monster's DEF will only be inflicted as Battle Damage once. The effect of "Dragon's Rage" will not inflict the damage again.

Gravekeeper's Vassal: If you equip "Fairy Meteor Crush" to "Gravekeeper's Vassal", and attack a Defense Position monster and inflict Battle Damage to the opponent's Life Points, the damage is treated as effect damage due to "Gravekeeper's Vassal"s effect.

Shinato, King of a Higher Plane: When your "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane" is equipped with "Fairy Meteor Crush" and destroys your opponent's Defense Position monster, first, during damage calculation, "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane" inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points because of "Fairy Meteor Crush", and then, when the Defense Position monster is sent to the Graveyard, "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane"s effect inflicts damage equal to the original ATK of the destroyed monster.

Spiral Spear Strike: If you have 2 copies of "Spiral Spear Strike", or "Spiral Spear Strike" and a "Gaia the Dragon Champion" equipped with "Fairy Meteor Crush", the damage to your opponent's Life Points is not doubled. (In the case of "Fairy Meteor Crush", you still can draw for the "Spiral Spear Strike" effect.)

Spirit Reaper: While in Defense Position, "Spirit Reaper" will stop all Battle Damage to your Life Points from most monsters, but monsters like "Spear Dragon" and those equipped with "Fairy Meteor Crush" can still inflict Battle Damage to your Life Points with their effects.
