The spell has no downside. Biggest range in game. Instant. Almost no mana cost. 6 second cooldown.
It should at minimum have base 30 yard range and a reasonable mana cost added to it.
solo 150 mobs vs 200 single targetā¦ LoL
Reason why you post on who you do ā¦lol
Excuse me ā¦ deep wound. No cost just a hit. bug stacks infinity.
Got in melee range ā¦SKILLLL
Lol
In general Mage is a more complete class in vanilla than specs like balance.
Also you say awful, but Fire mage is currently ranked 3rd in higher percentile brackets in PvE.
Yes it is better later, but itās also not horrible now.
Comparing it to a low level hunter is not exactly the greatest comparison, hunter has it easier than everyone.
We all know they are strong, even without gear to back it up.
So do you think vanilla balance druid is was also good? PvE or PvP is largely irrelevant, balance druid was in a poor position in both in vanilla, hence why it has currently over performing rune.
Also the runes donāt care if you are talking about PvP or PvE anyway, they are in place to complete the spec as a whole.
So as I said, if the spec was already completely dog water and useless, of course it needs stronger runes to compensate.
Thatās a Blizzard design issue. They should have done something about the base design of unviable and underperforming specs before instigating the rune system. Instead of just attaching them as bandaid fixes that donāt work.
The evidence is there, all the original meta classes/specs that were already performing well in vanilla are still there at the top, just performing better because now they have more tools/throughput.
All the non-meta classes are all there down the bottom still, because despite the occasional over performing rune as a whole they only got a few things towards making the specs viable which completely missed the mark.
Nerfing almost unviable and severely underperforming specs just doesnāt work unless they fix the base design first. Perhaps that is where the effort should be focused, instead of trying to stomp already poorly performing specs even further in the dirt.
Especially when it is only relevant when said ability is used in conjunction with full end phase gear, because unless you are back pedalling, non spell power scaled Starsurge is not an issue.
Also as a mage you have no excuse really to complain about balance druids having no counter. Just blink away.
What are they going to do? Chase you at base movespeed?
Alternatively just blink towards them so you are in range with your much stronger kit and overall damage and defensive capabilities.
You say your other class is a hunter which should have even less issues with a druid.
Noone should be dying to a druid casting a single ability over 24-30s. (Which is how long it takes to do the 5-6 hits required)
The only time it would be relevant is if they were significantly over geared, or you are severely undergeared (or geared into 0 stam for PvE at which point why complain about PvP when running no PvP stats)
But at that stage why arenāt we complaining about Arcane Surge which can literally one shot lower geared/leveled players with the same gear disparity.
This is my raiding toon.
Copium. Druid has hard countered mage since day 1.
Bad Druids are still bad with Starsurge or not. Itās only really good at ganking people from long distance.

Theres literally nothing else to do in this version.

no. You are wrong.
Blizz buffed starsurge
4 marks ā¦ and druid are still under preforming
We know mages/warriors are over performing
No. anyone know or care who this is? We can wait wait and see. I have toons with much higher post counts. =-)

Welcome to SoD
The hunter nerfs each councided with waves of complains threads on the forums.
Considering how many ānerf starsurgeā threads popped recently and the fact that the spell is stronger than pre-nerf explo, itās pretty safe to assume that starsurge will be nerfed whether you think itās justified or not.
