Infinite Stars out of control

Dear all,

Hopefully this reaches a WoW Dev. Am I the only one seeing how OP infinite stars is, specifically the 75 corruption tier 3 version??? For most, if not all classes, this trait is repeatedly TOP #1 damage in mythics, raids, and PVP.

My theory is Blizzard is waiting till many players waste their gold/money on buying the boe items with the IS trait or waiting till most players farm enough keys/raid to get it before they nerf it…

Why should it be nerfed? It takes 0 effort to proc it, procs randomly. Can stack “infinitely” and so is the buff. Also it is most (90%) of the time #1 damage. Thoughts?

PS: If you have Infinite stars tier 2 or 3, please avoid Bias answers.

No it’s not. Stop trying to ruin fun because of your WM issues or w/e.

Eh? It’s definitely not anyone’s top damage in dungeons. In heroic raid it barely does anything.

It’s like a 5 proc roll the bones. It only appears on trash that’s already half dead. But on the major bosses, it’s a no show.

It shows up mostly on the almost dead pustulent oozes trash. :laughing:

I don’t know that I’d call it overpowered, seeing as how its only useful on strictly single target fights which there are very few of this tier.

But one thing that I did find interesting is that it procs on any spell usage, not just offensive ones. My guild was particularly excited by one of our Heroic Maut kills where I, as a resto druid, didn’t cast a single offensive spell at any point in the fight but still parsed a 96 for damage thanks to infinite stars.

I have a ring with rank 2? I think on it that likes to proc on whatever I am not currently focusing on.

I think people get triggered by the word “infinite”. If they called it sloppy McWetnoodle these threads would never happen.

It’s ridiculously overturned.

It is overtuned but really it doesn’t fire off a lot for me. It’s maybe 7th at best on my damage meters, usually it sits around 9th.

He mentions PVP last, but we know that’s his first concern.

Let me guess, you died and now the thing that killed you (that you don’t have yourself) needs to be nerfed into the ground?

No bias there obviously and if you had tier 3 of this thing yourself, you would still need it nerfed right?

of course you would.

Its pretty trash in all content that is not patchwork. Literally bad in mythic plus, world content, aoe fights, hectic add cleave, etc. Why do they need a nerf on the only style of fight they are usable in?

This is a lie. It does garbage dps unless you can proc it against one boss over and over for 3 minutes.

single target its broken af, twilight dev is top aoe tho, my i.s. cant keep up to t.d. in m+

Still waiting for people to stack 8-9x tier 3 460+ infinite stars in arena/duel pvp. Mutually assured destruction tactic.

This should’ve been the racial for the Void elves :elf:‍♀

96% for healer’s DPS

You should clarify. Your stars did 9k dps over the course of the fight.

Well yes. But I assumed the bit of a post where I said “as a resto druid” kinda had that covered :stuck_out_tongue:
