Latest on Wed, 09:21 pmLunarbomb: To answer Boomer's question I am running the 4T13 and I find it more beneficial to use starsurge on cooldown no matter what due to the 10% damage increase and the fact that you do get the instacast procs so often that there is no reason not to take advantage of the tier bonus
Sunfyre: *groan*
Doomfowl: A Combat-log is a druid meleeing in tree form. Think about it...
Stoemp: Hey, i just got 85 on my druid and got basic balance gear and spec, got a 8k dps at the moment, and i am looking for some helpfull Addons to improve my dps. (or makes thing's easier.
Doronamo: Stopping by from wow.joystiq, thought I'd say thanks for the symbiosis list, that's awesome.
mantiss: tooltips working, nice one =]
Sunfyre: I've been trying to get the Tooltips to work. They aren't.
mantiss: you also need the jquery script, not sure what you are currently using.
mantiss: can you add this to your pages? will allow wowdb tool tips, especially useful for the new symbiosis links.
Sunfyre: I still use 4T12 heroic, since I'm only running LFR at the time -- but even now I only starsurge under Eclipse. So definitely, I would wait until Eclipse with 4T13.
Moonkin Count!

I’m finding it difficult to even break 10 stars on basic mob pulls and even harder to hit the 20 stars on boss mobs. The stars come down way to slow, sometimes even 3 or 4 seconds with out one dropping. On top of that their damage appears to have been reduced as mine are hitting for an amazing 2.5k normal hits. Maybe I just never realized their lack luster damage because I was always getting plenty of stars but now its a huge nerf.
Anyone else getting the same issue as I am?

Are you tagging all of the mobs? There may be some buggy issues with the new “smart stars”.
February 11th, 2011 on 2:32 pm
Starfall is really buggy right now… last night in random heroics it was acting like old starfall and was hitting mobs out of combat for me.
February 11th, 2011 on 4:13 pm
I’m definitely in combat with all of the mobs when in multi-mob combat. I just did 4.3mil damage on the Omen guy out at the Lake Elune area for the Lunar Festival quest and hit Starfall 4 times and had 9 stars drop for 30k damage total.
I hope this is a bug and not a new era for Starfall. I liked it before they started messing with it honestly, now it has gotten all sorts of weird and crazy.

I had no problems in heroics but on some boss fights it seems very buggy, I’ve the slow falling stars (sometimes 2-3 seconds between falls) and also had crazy dps ones as well.

Honestly, they should have left starfall alone.
