    Celestial Alignment - Wrath vs Starfire?

    I'm under the impression that when you have 15s of Incarnation/NV up, and pop CE you continue spamming Starfire?......just because watching a lot of videos I see a LOT of Balance Druids (On heroic bosses too, not terrible moonkins!) spamming Wrath with these CDs up!

    It's bugging me as i think I'm missing something, or am I?

    Cheers

    the only time you would even consider casting a wrath is if you had to move during your cooldowns and have less than 2.5(ish depending on haste) seconds left for a starfire as i believe if starfire ends after your cooldowns it doesnt get the damage boost

    Funny, because then they are terrible, one does not cast Wrath during Celestial Alignment!

    And yet you still had to be rude about an innocent question =D

    Ty the rest of you. I knew it was SF, just wondering if I was missing anything from watching the other Druids videos.

    In that situation, I have been actually spamming MF a couple times instead of casting wrath. I mostly do it so that the timing isn't so tight for moving around.

    May I ask why starfire if it has an increased cast?

    Because the damage more than justifies the cast time.

    Because Wrath does less damage per cast time than Starfire outside of Solar Eclipse. The only reason we cast it outside solar at all is to move the bar towards Lunar.
