Tips and tactics

  • If specced into Balance, always cast Moonfire along with [Sunfire] as they can both be on any target at the same time without canceling one another and helps trigger [Shooting Stars] more often, which greatly increases your DPS. In addition, both Sunfire and Moonfire's overall damage increases while under the effects of [Lunar Shower] and [Eclipse], which helps in fights that require lots of movement or if mana becomes an issue. It's also good for kiting in PvP or finishing off fleeing enemies.
  • It's often considered an excellent choice for pulling, regardless of the druid's specialization due to its instant cast and long lasting DoT.
  • If an enemy is at low health you can finish them off by spamming several Moonfire or Sunfires in a row. This is horribly mana inefficient and low DPS, but can be done on the move to a fleeing enemy.

Patch changes

  • MoP Patch 5.0.4 (2012-08-28): No longer generates any Energy or changes into Sunfire while in Solar Eclipse.
  • Hotfix (2011-07-19): "Moonfire will now generate Lunar Energy when crossing from Solar to Lunar on the Eclipse bar."
  • Cataclysm Patch 4.0.6 (2011-02-08): Now costs 9% of base mana, down from 18% of base mana.
