Stars of Ruin sorcery NERFED | Elden Ring Patch 1.06

Patch 1.06 decreased the tracking of Stars of Ruin significantly. According to @king_bore_haha on Twitter, the homing turn speed went from 360 to 45 degrees per second. The homing stop range went from 0.2 meters to 2.7 meters, and the velocity of some of the projectiles was also decreased. Overall, the spell is not nearly effective as it once was (especially in 1v1 situations). It can still present a problem when fighting multiple opponents at once (invasions).

The tracking for this spell has been decreased, and you can easily avoid being hit by it all together. It is definitely still relevant in invasions where you are fighting multiple players at once. Overall, I like how they balanced it and hopefully this encourages more spell casting variety from players.

Babe, wake up, new elden ring patch just dropped

[haryjackazzgaming]

Regular glintstone stars might see some more use now, they still have big tracking like old SOR but they were heavily overshadowed because 3 vs like 15 projectiles

This spell didnt need to be nerfed like this

[Battleguild]

They should've dropped the FP cost slightly to offset the nerf, since SoR lost its most significant and attractive feature.

BHS just needed a longer recovery time, the nerf to it might be overkill.

RoB was a good nerf. The main weapon was only slightly affected, but Corpse Piler was far too easy to proc bleed through i-frames.

For better or worse, SoR and BHS might just be left in the storage bin now. RoB will probably still see some use, but not as prevalent.

RKS/Crouch Poking will probably be king until the next update.

I like the decrease in tracking. Also, Star shower deals more damage for for less the cost. Finally Elden Stars has competition.

Congratulations Stars of Ruin! You have been promoted to PvE only!

Tired of sorcerers? Try golden retaliation! It's one of the greatest tools against them

You always could dodge SoR by carefull sideway dodges. But thats not the point. The real sleeper is Star Shower. It can easily outdamage SoR since its damage is divided by less projectiles, has absurd tracking capabilities AND cost less Fp. FP efficiency is important for invasions since it is a finite ressource. Even in duel it allows you to spam it with impunity. Its only theoretical downside is that its projectiles are slower, but it allow you to mix Shower with other type of pressure.

TL;DR Use Star Shower before they nerf it.

What's the number voice you are using for your character?

[soulocinder]

It is now for applying pressure instead of being a win button, 10/10 the fromsoft gods have not abandoned us.

I haven't gotten a chance to play pvp again but if the spell is garbage now I'm going to be really sad.

[kensylbay]

I have to be honest, I never encountered anyone who spammed this spell like this pre 1.06.

[playoffrondo]

even in pve this spell is far outclassed by night comet. D tier spell with its high fp cost lol

[titans]

balance has finally been restored, the mages are dying easily again, nature is returning

[sekiro]

SOR to much of a nerf and ROB to little of a nerf. From can't balance for shit

[xXLunatikxXlul]

This spell was already easy to deal with. Golden retaliation and Eternal Darkness trivialize this already outclassed spell.

[GoToBedSheeva]

Damage is still good but this was so needed

[slime]

I think that's downgraded a bit too much, they could have taken a 90% dodge chance but not 100%. And yes I know how annoying the spell is
