Druid Starfall needs to be redesigned

It’s Maddof. This isn’t uncommon. He picks some random thing to rage about Druids without understanding what he’s even talking about.

He hates druids and tries to find bad excuses to hate on them more. Last few times, it was our passive heal that he thinks is OP. :roll_eyes:

Our 3% to hp every few seconds? :scream:

You just post to post huh.

Yep. IT’S SO OVERPOWERED WE’RE HEALING TO FULL WITH IT. :scream:

Druids would take the change if the core of the mage kit was traded for the core of the druid aoe kit.

To be frank, Druids Starfall is the only spell available to them to do any real consistent AoE damage and it comes at a negation of the single-target damage. There is a reason you no longer see boomkins in MDI, and that is because they got outscaled by the infinite scaling nature of the mage’s kit. Frost being the most dominant, you look at that spec you can’t just say “blizzard.” because unlike druids, it isn’t the only spell in an AoE rotation. You have a ton going into their kit to include the very powerful Frozen Orb. A frost mage mops the floor with a boomkin, each and every time.

If you only look at at an ability by itself, you’re not really understanding the full picture of a class. If you took Chaos Bolt by itself you’d say it is OP for one ability to hit that hard, without understand a Destruction Warlock spends 8 seconds building one up, to then unleash the bolt after the work up. There are many things wrong with druids, Starfall isn’t it. Instead, let’s look at mages, who since Classic Wow, have yet to see an era where they weren’t top meta for any and everything be it PvP or PvE. I have no rememberance of a time that mages were “bad” or even just “average” as they are almost always desired.

I like it, it fits their fantasy.
What I dislike is their beam this and beam that from top to bottom spells.
And that stupid eclipse system.
I also thought the dmg for starfall was nerfed.

This is my relationship with the Eclipse system:

Hahaha (seethe’s inside for not being able to post meme’s… or anything in image form lol, stupid trust level)…

So true… what a weird system on all fronts.

When I imagine ‘druid’, that ain’t it, (oops, gotta change up when I press so I get into the appropriate eclipse) who thought that was fantasy appropriate and fun lol

Not always. I remember the wild days of Wrath when Starfall wasn’t a smart weapon and it just pulled everything within 15 miles and regularly caused wipes in the first stinking room of ICC

Just give us back hurricane lol. Tbh balance druid right now as it is makes me so sad. I was okay with it in Legion/BFA up until they changed it yet again.

But honestly, any time I pull something and a nearby horde druid has starfall up, it steals the tag before my abilities can tick damage. Super annoying.
