— In-game description

Earthly Star is an action unlocked at level 62. It is available for Astrologian.

Notes

  • Earthly Dominance is immediately granted upon placement of the Earthly Star. After its effect expires, it is upgraded to Giant Dominance.

Gameplay

  • Placing the Earthly Star will not generate any enmity. As such, it can be placed before a fight begins.
    • Astrologians may also place the Earthly Star in between downtime to begin the cooldown, while also allowing it to upgrade.
  • With very little exception, the Earthly Star should always be detonated while under the effect of Giant Dominance due to its more potent effects. Some exceptions are if a fight is about to end, or similarly, if forced downtime is imminent.
  • As with other cooldowns, the Earthly Star should be placed as often as possible to maximize damage. If the healing is required for upcoming mechanics, its placement can be delayed for a bit. It is not recommended to delay it for longer periods of time (generally over 15 seconds), or to hold it only for healing.
