Notes
- This spell provides less damage per second than
[Wrath], but is more mana-efficient.
Tips and tactics
- Opening with Starfire then using some form of Crowd Control such as
[Entangling Roots] is a good method for pulling mobs. - Starfire is affected by Lunar Eclipse, and therefore benefits from the Balance Druid mastery,
[Mastery: Total Eclipse]. - It has the third highest damage per mana of a druid's damage spells, after
[Moonfire] (DoT included) and 
[Insect Swarm]. Thus it is an optimal offensive ability to use when running low on mana.
Trivia
- Starfire is a basic Druid spell in Hearthstone. The flavor text reads: "Balance is important to druids. This card is perfectly balanced."
