    Sunfire (and wrath) in legion

    Just a quick question,

    Since the oscillating balance bar from WoD is gone in Legion, how will moonkins be casting "sun" spells (assuming "moon" spells are default as in legion - in fact, this is the assumption im questioning) ?
    Will moonkins just get two more buttons (for sunfire and wrath) available all the time?

    This, in turn, would mean a moonkin would be default pressing the two basic dots during the first two globals on a boss or adds worth dotting up, etc? (Just like in pre-WoD times)

    Also, im guessing hurricane is gone... iconic worthless spell but kinda fun to use sometimes for shits and giggles and what not lol

    Wrath has always been a seperate spell, so no change there.

    Moonfire and Sunfire are back to being seperated again, and this isn't the first time we had 2 DoTs. In fact, we've had two seperate DoTs on our bars for far longer than not.

    Only truly new button in Legion is Moon Moon from our Artifact.

    Hurricane will remain as a Resto only AoE, while Moonkins have fully migrated to the Sun, Moon and That's no Moon Stars theme.

    Blizzard just needs to bring back Mushroom aoe. Finding times to plant 3 mushrooms while on the move between multi-dotting and starfalling was what made Moonkin aoe so great, Firelands / DS Boomkin aoe was its peak. Hurricane is a useless spell that needs to die in a fire.

    Personally I prefer the old splashing starfall.

    Wrath has always been a separate spell since Classic.

    Sunfire will become its own spell, and is used as a separate damage over time effect from Moonfire. Basically, you can have both Moonfire and Sunfire up on a target at the same time by pressing two buttons.

    Hurricane has left Balance, but Starfall has been reworked (placed area of effect that allows the Balance Druid to cast while moving inside it) and Lunar Strike, the new Starfire, has a small splash damage component to it, as well as Sunfire.

    OMG yes, splashing starfall was hawt in its day. Though the there was something to be said for the satisfying BOOM of a 3 shroom solar explosion on an aoe pack (I miss the resto exploding shroom even more though)

    Oh my.... Starfall splash damage was so sexy! You used to hit the spell and all you could see was numbers on your screen! That was very satisfying! Never really liked using mushrooms, tho. It felt clunky and it took a long time to put down 3 shrooms on the floor and then hitting the explosion.
