Shard of the Fallen Star not scaling with spellpower

The Warrior here is likely in Berserker stance which would account for the damage being more than the stated 400 to 442 on the trinket tooltip. The reason it hit harder in the timestamp you linked is likely from the Berserking buff he had in battleground and he was casting it on a Warrior that was likely tak…

Raw damage increases like DMF buff may. Go get one and test it out, but I think you gotta wait because the DMF is closed this week.
