The pull is 1 sec first of all and it has 7 secs cd Dosent make any sense kraken aegis got 8 secs pull and does heavy dot The stun isn’t even 3.5 secs its max 0-2 secs yes it’s sometimes 0 if u miss a hit that means it’s over I don’t think the auto attack is needed on this weapon since it removes 50ms in pve 25 ms in pvp (I don’t see any use for it anywhere imo) at least from the maps I farm at better would be to have the aegis proc actually lasts for 7 secs as it says in the description of the weapon with the stun and it should debuff 60% armor not 50% 50% seems low and it should have dot just like kraken aegis and also 30% armor debuff in pvp
Kraken aegis outperform the sb shield by a lot it feels like knight saber sword but with somewhat better stats even chain sword is better I don’t understand the point of the shield as of now if you don’t buff it and make the pull last way longer than just 1 second I can understand the charged hit to pull but for 1 sec pull? Definitely not worth especially if u miss the target if you could be so kind and tell me what is the use of this shield as of now I would be grateful ty

Im pretty sure all sb weapons have a horrible proc, people just use them for the base stats

Dot seems low af but dot isn’t the big issue here it’s the pulling part it’s 1 pull and 20 secs cd just like knight saber but knight saber got 7 secs cool-down this shield got 20 seconds cooldown it should have 7 seconds pull (just like kraken aegis ) and 10 secs cool-down then this weapon will get fixed idk about other classes I heard they are bad too but didn’t test I don’t play other classes

Sb shield is a total scam as it is for now. Unless you guys buff it to deal better, no one will use that sh.
Daggers also completely useless.
Only works for multiple enemies so useless against bosses, also the dot is crap, whole 5 secs have probably same dmg as 1 sec of the aura from kraken staff which is just a side effect from the even stronger proc. Should be the other way around, mythic 81 was also 10 times better than arcane 76 but for the mythic 86 its different.

Anyone tested it already? How is it?
Tested daggers without the 6/6 set but have used krak vest, arti, and belt.
Proc duration needs increased, damage needs increased a bit to put it on par with kraken weapons or to be slightly better than them. They are literally just a kraken replica with less damage and a lower proc duration.
Why push mechanic on star beast staff? Staffs are close range weapons used mostly to clear mobs. People want mobs to be pulled not pushed. Why Damage reduction instead of any other aoe or even single target buff. I find it useless. Weapons should be the main damage sources and I would keep a simple formula for them, not trying to over complicate the procs just to look more fun. Change effects and how damage is dealt. dot pools poisonus, dot lightnings, shock waves, burn effects, explosions, healing wards for pvp (total separate or paralel to pvp as I don t want my mage to be a healer), unless you make a dedicated weapon for that. Just combine for god sake the kraken staff buff with forge gun stats and that s it. Unless you choose to change that damage reduction with something mentioned above. And regarding the design of the Star Beast Staff, consider adding something to it to look more like a staff. A dragon head on that stick or something. It looks booring and unfinished.
Make the staff shoot 2x fireballs at different targets when the skill is used. Add perks like burning damage to new gear or are range so we can build our character more personalized. Release different mythic/ arc gear for different skill perks.
Make the star chakrams buff rog bombs so we can teleport back where bomb was placed on second skill activation
Let star shield buff rally cry by 200% damage and make every party want a tank. We could get away from 300% insane damage procs this way and rely on our friends for those buffs. You could release so much different, maybe even some farmable gear and we would get away from farming only gold too..

Hes right.
I tested the SB Chain Sword (6/6) and the weaps need a buff and increase proc duration. In the current situation Starbeast is the little Sister of the Kraken . ;) and absolutely not worth to have it .
(Or Proc Stacking .that would be wonderful ;p)
Does anyone have Sb Shield experience ?

Please look at the daggers. The proc is so short and the aoe is too tiny.
You also cannot proc and kill mobs if you move much to sweep mobs. The mechanic is that splash one second aoe dmg then it’s over.
These need such a buff. This post gives me a glimmer of hope.
I opened a lot lot lot of crates to get these and I don’t use them at all because kraken daggers are still so much superior to these.
(I also have Chakrams and am happy with the use on them)
I am really hoping other rogues can add better details on here so they can be buffed up for good use.
Mage starbeast weapons need to be severely buffed. It's the only class where we haven't transitioned to it yet while other classes are now using them as part of their main damage set since it buffs them so much - and we're still stuck using Force guns. Sb orb is only used to benefit from the 6/6 proc.
And what is that Starbeast staff proc? where will we ever need a debuff proc like if we're being fr, when the current Kraken staff already does it a lot better atop its other stat proc buffs. Also, we wanna kill the mobs, and not push them away further... just for us to chase them again?
Players now wonder if the team assigned some random to make these weapons. Cuz none of it make sense.
I would like to see sb set as an alternative to kraken set rather than just pure replacement. I’d work on that 6/6 sb buff and it should be good. Some nice buffs related to Elder woods expansion would be great too. People will surely find a way to use them in combination with kraken set.
Also nerfing kraken set would be huge scam for all the hc players that actually spent insane amounts of platinum to get the whole set, so please avoid doing that.
I think rogue/warr sb weapons are fine as they are, seen people using them in a specific way and they were really really good.
Have u see a War use the (full) SB Proc or a War use the Krak Proc switch to Starbeast Sword (for dmg.Same with SnowSword) ?
I tested full SB ,SB+krak , Krak proc switch Dmg set, ect ect... and this SB SET buff is way to weak .
Anyone have SB Aegis Experience??

Buff orb’s damage and proc.
I heard all new SB weps need a rework and a big buff aswell.
Or will you nerf kraken ?

Never Nerf Kraken . HC Gamers invest large sums to get it .(Open chests).
Nerfing kraken will only bring more issues. You can't even solo elite rahabkors hp bar with any of the star weapons proc, even when using krak vest belt and arti then swapping to a 3600+ dex set.

I hope the link works so you can see for yourself that’s how you can fix the sb shield and make it better than kraken aegis
First are the issues with the weapon proc:
1. Standard attack: it targets few mobs only and does low damage over time the 50 ms debuff isn’t useful anywhere and it should be removed the changes for the auto attack proc you can find down below in “how to fix the weapon”
2. Charged attack: it only has 1 pull and the cool-down of the weapon is 20 secs 50% armor debuff and 25% in pvp is good but could be way better you can find the changes in “how to fix the weapon”
Now how to fix the weapon proc:
1. Standard attack: create a void vortex that pull all nearby targets towards you for 3 seconds and does damage overtime, stun for up to 3 seconds pulled targets lose 50% armor in pve 25% in pvp the cooldown is 10 seconds *wearing the star beast amulet increase the duration of the pull to 7 seconds*
2. Charged attack: create a void vortex that pull all nearby targets towards you for 5 seconds and does heavy damage overtime, stun for up to 4 seconds pulled targets lose 75% armor in pve and 50% in pvp charged attack also has a chance to activate a shield that reflect 350% of incoming damage the cooldown is 12 seconds *wearing the star beast amulet increases the duration of the pull to 8 seconds
Summary:
That’s how you fix the star beast shield and that’s what we actually need not movement speed debuff not 1 pull and 20 seconds cooldown. we need something that can stand out with krakens and this isn’t it as it currently is
Thank you
:D More Strategy and i change to C&C :D "just kidding" ;p
fakt is u dont need any "proc strategy ect" for a fix Star Beast Set and thats why the Star Beast Set needs a Buff .(Proc stacking acutally didnt exist.and i all ready combined and test it with krak proc ect ...)
And i mean Sb Sword and Snow only as Dmger for Krak Proc ;)
It's a pity that you've only seen it and don't bring any knowledge with you
If you have it, please tell us about your experience(thats important) and the proc strategies you are talking about, but proc strat are not the Point ;)
Personally i think star beast weapons really need a buff or rework u can say.

Procs are weak compaired to the game difficulty set to adjust to kraken.

SB staff and orb do the same thing lmao.
Orb is just a bit better in terms of proc cause you can spam it on new targets if charged.
It’s normal for chakram, chainsword and orb.
Daggers and shield procs do the same thing than kraken but in a weaker version that does less damage and last shorter.
Those weapons procs need a hard rework especially the staff it’s proc literally has the same animation as the orb, chakram and chainsword.
The mechanic of different proc on normal and charged attack is interesting but you can exploit it in a different way making something different on each type of attack (normal/charged)
As an exemple :
staff could has lightning type proc and psy type proc. On normal you can do a chain lightning coming from the staff that spray on 1-3 mobs. And on charged a arcane wave that extend in all directions to hit all mobs arround for
Review all the numbers (dmg output and enemy stats) and nerf kraken if needed because for real the new gear is not enjoyable.

Aegis is good just needs more dmg and more bufd to user and more armor removal or elemental dmg idk why yall havent put any elemental dmg to star beast set is that why they deal soo little dmg are they also suffering reduced dmg like krak in elder woods?
Thanks for the great in-depth feedback!
We'll be increasing the damage output for all of the Star Beast weapon procs.
We will also be reworking how certain procs work based on your feedback. Specifically:
- Star Beast Aegis will get a 'pulse' instead of a single pull.
- Star Beast Staff will no longer push enemies.
- Star Beast Daggers' caster damage aura will be increased.
There was also an issue introduced a little while ago that prevented certain aspects of the Star Beast item set to work properly. This was addressed a couple of updates ago.
Aforementioned improvements to the Star Beast weapons suite are planned to go out tomorrow.
Best wishes!
SB Staff Proc: I Tested it on Fly Lord(LB) and the charged attack proc ticks does like 40% the damage of standard attacks proc tick damage. Maybe im missing something here but that seems a bit drastic for a few more seconds of duration. Also, Orrick was able to cancel my proc after one second of duration( It was his heavy attack he always does at he starts of maps), icons stayed but damg and proc animation stopped.
6pc sb set and Krak Amulet(Int) + H. Lammy as base pet ( Crypt HB & Meph AA). Didn't use AA.
The update is not out yet. Expected sometime this afternoon
When I say the proc damage is increased I’m not saying it’s 100X higher - it’s a modest increase and it makes sense with the items’ Mythic rarity and it respects upcoming Arcanes.
Just hoping to set expectations :-)
