How to use Star Bomb in Plunderstorm
Star Bomb is the definition of a high-risk, high-reward ability.
In the high-stakes world of Plunderstorm, sometimes the only way to win is to go big or go home - and no ability embodies this philosophy better than Star Bomb.
This cosmic nuke is the ultimate trump card for any adventurer looking to make a splash on the battlefield, and for good reason - with its massive burst damage and ability to completely wipe out clustered enemies, Star Bomb is the supernova solution to all your PvP problems. But wielding this celestial colossus is no easy feat.
In this guide, we'll shoot for the stars and break down the intricacies of Star Bomb domination, from timing your casts to predicting enemy movements and everything in between.
Offensively
Landing a perfect Star Bomb on a cluster of enemies can instantly wipe them out, but the long cast time and delay before detonation make it challenging to use effectively.
When playing a Star Bomb build, always be on the lookout for opportunities to group enemies together and don't be afraid to hold onto it until the perfect moment presents itself.
In early leveling, Star Bomb can be a game-changer — it can wipe out unmatched numbers of mobs at once for a massive amount of Plunder. Just stay vigilant of lurking players looking to take advantage while you are distracted gathering up the mobs.
To make the most of Star Bomb, you'll want to pair it with high control abilities like 
Earthbreaker, 
Steel Traps, or 
Quaking Leap that can keep your target inside the bomb's radius.
If you don't have any CC available, you'll need to predict where your enemies will be when the bomb goes off. This requires a keen understanding of the battlefield and your opponents' movement patterns.
Look for chokepoints, narrow corridors, and other areas where enemies are likely to group up, then start channeling Star Bomb in advance so it explodes right as they cluster together.
Star Bomb can often be more effective in duos thanks to the sheer number of CC abilities you and your partner can bring to the battle. Even if the target can escape one or two CC attempts, the third or fourth one is likely to land, setting them up perfectly for a Star Bomb detonation.
Defensively
While Star Bomb is primarily an offensive ability, it can also be used defensively in certain situations.
It can effectively create a denial zone around you that can force enemies to stop casting and move out, or be wary of entering. If you're being chased, you can use Star Bomb to create some breathing room and use a sneaky 
Health Brew while your attacker moves away.
