Wand of stars weapon

So I noticed that a lot of troops that were making 3 gems per certain color troop or certain troop type have been reworked because they are overpowered. How come the wand of stars weapon hasn’t been reworked? It is stupidly overpowered. Pretty much can not counter it. It cleanses with the blue/red/green/brown star. And me being a lower level can not compete with builds that have that and certain builds with stellerax or the gray king. I mean I know I’ll probably be called a cry baby or whatever. I just find it to be an unfair advantage. Thank you for your time.

Welcome to the forums @Ladyhawk1324 and thank you for posting your thoughts on this. :blush:
I don’t think anyone will be calling you a cry baby - that would be incredibly rude and I also know there are many other players who would agree with you as well - so no worries!

Everyone has their own opinion and this is a great place to share them.

Wishing you a Happy Friday and a wonderful weekend, :sunflower:

My level is over 1000 and I also cannot compete with the wand of stars. One of the main reasons for me is often the lowest level team offered to me is 4000 levels above mine. I had quit playing PVP but for the campaign pass I have to go there for glory (or underspire which I also don’t play). Anyway, I’m sure you’ll find lots of people who share your opinion as @Anam_Cara says. There are many fun modes to play in and I hope you find one you like. Welcome to the forum!

Buenos dias … disculpen pero quiza no lo han visto … el arma VARITA DE ESTRELLA esta en la forja y la puedes crear cuando quieras solo necesitas juntas los 3 requisitos … la tropa los amantes la consigues en las llaves de bobeda asi que realmente no es un problema conseguirla.

Wand of Stars is not reliable. If it misses, your opponent gets to hoover up a ton of mana.

Definitely not overpowered since it’s too unreliable. Would need a buff rather than a nerf to be as good as other weapons. The only upside is, that it uses all colours and the cleanse all, which more troops or weapons should have.

So, exploding half the board (generating 20+ Mana in the process) and an Extra Turn >50% of the time is too “unreliable”? Or are you facing Wand vs. Wand teams (in which case, “first cast wins”) ?

When its ai wand never misses but it sure does on offence and when it does its a 50 50 if you can recover. This game needs an overhaul i barley play anymore and i am gm of number 1 guild on xbox. So it should tell the devs something, but appartently not cause nithing is ever done to make the game better again no wars nothing but frustration in pvp .whats the point grinding explore just aint fun nomore did it for so long now so when pvp update arrived thought it was my birthday but was i in for a shock once these dam heros were put into the mix or the blood frenzy not sure whicth one is worse anymore . People dont like losing a hundred fights a week guys its as simple as that.somebody needs to get on the ball and make it fun again or you will just keep losing money. And the new players will learn fast how awful this game is now and it wont take them half as long to stop.spending money like the old players ledt in this game

Unfortunately most battles in which I use WoS in 1st position the extra turn fails 4 or 5 times in a row before either the battle is over with a win/loss or I get my 1st extra turn. On a lucky day I still win about 50% of those though, no matter if the opponent uses the same weapon or not. Mostly it’s Essence of Evil I have to go against anyway. Those I lose all the time.

Battles against WoS are quite rare. It’s mostly EoE, Goblins, Stellarix/Gray King (both I don’t have) or Zuul’Goth. These are boring and usually result in a fast loss before I can hit my 2nd turn.

To be fair, he used to go for 1st almost every week. So this counts as barely playing compared to regular numbers …

You answered by yourself - you are low level.

Wand is an excellent weapon and it must be an example to create future ones.

If a baby cries and you say “crying baby”, so it not rude. It is straight! And that’s the main difference.

Welcome @Ladyhawk1324! Even at lower levels, the wand can be controlled or countered. Essence of Evil (fully leveled up) does it quite well. It’s very satisfying to watch EoE turn the wand or Stellerix into a frog.

Instead of asking for a nerf to a strong, but not unbeatable, weapon, I encourage everyone to experiment with other weapons and traits to better control the opposing team. In my opinion, it’s the many team building options that sets this game apart from other match 3 games.

Before Wand of Stars was introduced, people were complaining about Elementalist class being over powered.
In my opinion Wand of Stars is the best counter to Elementalist class.
You will at one point be able to craft it yourself and to be fair, I don’t know which level you are, but you can’t expect to beat everything which are higher level and have played to get ressources to craft troops/weapons currently out of your reach. But you will get there too.
There will always be stupid, annoying, over powered troops, weapons, troop combos like:

Zuul’Goth
Empowered Converters
Life & Death(was nerfed)
Orbweaver class(was nerfed)
Goblins
Elementalist class
Stellarix

You barely play?

By his standards thats barely playing. I used to do a minimum of 5-10k a week trophies every week without fail but now struggling to find the will to play it. The game really has fone downhill and if things don’t improve it will be gone in a year

And here we go again. Asking for more nerfs.

So, the last nerf was bad, right? How is more nerfs going to be good?

As someone who actually barely played pvp this week, I got 30 wins and 1 loss in frenzy regions. And last time ich checked, I won 1 defense and lost 59.

If you have a hard time in frenzy regions I don’t think it’s wand of stars, Stellarix, Elementalist, or Takshaka - just saying. Maybe it’s not for you.

GWs is gone, the rest of the game is boringly easy, most of us long term players have finished all underspire kingdoms in pure faction - pvp is the only thing left that we may lose on. And for some that seems a little hard to swallow.

For me the lack of diversity in PvP is the main annoying thing. But no nerf of any of these aforementioned things will change that because the the next best meta will arise.

Fix PvP.
Don’t nerf anything.
