starfall, uh what?

[zimboombafoo]

Found this on a recent wowhead update... Starfall: Maximum 0 stars. Lasts 10 sec. Triggering to up to 2 targets every 1 sec for 10 sec.Triggering a Lunar Eclipse resets the cooldown of this spell.Shapeshifting into an animal form or mounting cancels the effect. Any effect which causes you to lose control of your character will suppress the Starfall effect.

So, they're making it so starfall can only hit two targets at once? WHY would they do that?

It.... Already does this

Seems like a change to bring it's damage in line with other dmg abilities (especially damage cooldowns), by limited the targets they can probably tune it to do a more appropriate amount of damage.

Watching the outcry over the tootip update would be amusing though.

In WoD should be hitting up to 3 targets for a maximum of 30 stars. Duration still 10seconds meaning it cannot fire more than 1 star per second on any given target.

All of MoP it's been summoning a max of 20 stars on 2 targets.

A lot of datamined tooltips are wrong atm.

That's not even the correct tooltip. It no longer says anything about a "Maximum x stars".

Functionally, nothing changed at all, at least until you get the third target while leveling to 100.

By doing literally nothing to the actual spell and just changing the tooltip?
