About this module
The priority
- Sunfire — when sunfire is missing or ending
- Moonfire — when moonfire is missing or ending
- Fury of Elune — when it is ready (not near the cap)
- Eclipse — when it is ready and you’re not in eclipse
- Starfall — with starweaver’s warp
- Starsurge — free, near the cap, or during eclipse
- Starfire — as a filler
Common mistakes
- Letting Sunfire or Moonfire drop.
- Sitting near the Astral Power cap outside Eclipse.
- Ignoring a free Starfall or Starsurge proc.
What’s simplified
- Each turn is one decision (about one global cooldown). Cooldowns and buff durations are converted to turns, so timing is approximate.
- Priority order follows SimulationCraft’s default priority list for this build, simplified to the abilities modeled here. Costs, cooldowns and effects come from Blizzard’s spell data. Rule wording is our own.
- Eclipse is one button here (in game Solar and Lunar Eclipse are separate): 21-turn recharge, 10 turns long.
- Fury of Elune grants its Astral Power at once (40) instead of over 8 seconds. Astral Power caps at 120 (an approximation of the talented cap).
- Starfire is instant and gives 8 Astral Power (12 during Eclipse). Sunfire and Moonfire give 6 and last 12 turns.
- Starweaver’s Warp (free Starfall) is a 25% chance per Starsurge, and Starweaver’s Weft (free Starsurge) a 25% chance per Starfall.
- Celestial Alignment, Incarnation, Force of Nature, Wild Mushroom and the moon spells are not modeled.

Elune’s Chosen with Fury of Elune and Starweaver: the build this module teaches (Starfire as the filler). Keeper of the Grove is not modeled. Reviewed Oct 20, 2026. A training aid, not a damage simulator.
