Modifiers will be unlocked as you level up your mastery in each [[#Constellations|constellation]], and can be re-rolled by spending {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} or {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}.
Modifiers will be unlocked as you level up your mastery in each [[#Constellations|constellation]], and the buff can be upgraded by spending {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} or {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}} to level up that buff to a maximum level of 5 for {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}} buffs and 8 for {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} buffs.

===Modifiers===
When unlocked, each [[#Constellations|constellation]] will initially have a single standard modifier star unlocked. Increasing the {{Icon|Mastery}} level of a constellation will unlock additional stars (and therefore additional modifiers), up to a maximum of 3 standard modifiers and 3 unique modifiers per constellation.


Each modifier will start with a random modifier and value out of the possible modifiers available for that constellation, where the list of possible modifiers for a constellation can be viewed either within the [[#Constellations|constellations table]] or in-game by clicking ''Explore'' followed by ''View Possible Modifiers'' on the constellation.
Leveling Astrology involves Studying various Constellations, starting with the Deedree Constellation at level 1. Studying has a base interval of 3 seconds per action. Studying does not cost any resources and provides Astrology experience and Mastery experience for the Constellation after each action.
 
Each Study action also has a chance to provide {{ItemIcon|Stardust}}, {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}, or to ({{TotH}}) discover a [[Mining#Meteorites|Meteorite]].
 
===Acquiring Stardust===
Both {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} and {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}} are exclusively obtained from Astrology. Both are acquired at random while studying constellations, where [[Stardust]] and [[Golden Stardust]] drops with a 5% and 2% chance per action respectively.


====Rerolling Modifiers====
The rate at which stardust may be acquired can be increased by:
Modifiers can be re-rolled in order to change both the modifier its self and value of the modifier. Re-rolling standard modifiers costs {{ItemIcon|Stardust}}, while re-rolling unique modifiers costs {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}. The cost of re-rolling always applies and cannot be avoided with preservation chance modifiers. For any constellation, re-rolling may be performed for all standard or unique modifiers at the same time at a cost of 1 stardust per roll, or individually at the cost of 30 stardust per roll. The cost of re-rolling modifiers individually may be halved to 15 stardust when the player reaches the 95% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]].
* '''Decreasing the action interval'''
** {{ItemIcon|Secret Stardust Potion|img=Secret Stardust Potion IV}} reduces the action interval by 3/5/10/15% depending on the potion's tier. Note that since the potions themselves use [[Stardust]] as an ingredient, maximizing the {{Skill|Herblore}} preservation and doubling chances before creating any of these potions is highly recommended.
** {{TotH}}{{Icon|Variel|type=constellation}} reduces the action interval by 5%.
** {{TotH}}{{ItemIcon|Superior Astrology Skillcape}} reduces the action interval by 10%.
* '''Increasing the drop chance(need rework)'''
** For {{ItemIcon|Stardust}}, the 25% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] provides a +5% bonus to the drop chance, {{TotH}} {{Icon|Variel|type=constellation}} provides a +2% bonus, and {{TotH}} {{Icon|Rosaniya|type=constellation}} provides a +4% bonus.
** For {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}, the 50% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] provides a +3% bonus, the 95% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] provides a +2% bonus, {{PetIcon|Astro}} provides a +1% bonus to the drop chance, and {{TotH}} {{Icon|Variel|type=constellation}} provides a +2.5% bonus.
** For {{ItemIcon|Meteorite Ore}}, the 95% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] provides a +2% bonus, and {{TotH}} {{Icon|Variel|type=constellation}} provides a +0.5% bonus.
* '''Increasing the drop quantity'''
** Equipping {{ItemIcon|Astrology Skillcape}} provides a +1 bonus to the quantity of both [[Stardust]] and [[Golden Stardust]] that is dropped.
** {{TotH}}Equipping {{ItemIcon|Superior Astrology Skillcape}} provides a +2 bonus to the quantity of both [[Stardust]] and [[Golden Stardust]] that is dropped.


When rolled, the value of each modifier is a random whole number between 1 and 5 inclusive, with larger values being less common than lower values. The chance of rolling each value can be found in the [[Astrology#Reroll Chances|Reroll Chances]] section of this page.
===Modifiers===
Each constellation starts with 6 different predetermined modifiers. Each modifier will start with 0% bonus. You can use {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} or {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}} to upgrade it to 8%(standard) or 5%(unique) bonus. Each upgrade gives a 1% bonus.


Due to the low chance of rolling a modifier with a value of 5 re-rolling all modifiers until each has the maximum value of 5 is discouraged, as doing so would require a significant amount of both {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} and {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}. Instead, consider the following strategy:
Upgrading standard modifiers costs {{ItemIcon|Stardust}}, while upgrading unique modifiers costs {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}.
# Decide on a minimum acceptable value (say 3% or 4%).
# Re-roll all standard or unique modifiers until at least one of the modifiers is one that is desirable to the player with at least minimum acceptable value.
# Individually re-roll the other standard or unique modifiers until they also become modifiers that the player desires with the minimum acceptable value. Ideally, individual re-rolling should only occur after the 95% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] has been reached due to the significant stardust saving this will bring.


===Acquiring Stardust===
The first upgrade needs 10 {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} or 50 {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}. With each upgrade, the cost of {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} or {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}} will double.
Both {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} and {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}} are exclusively obtained from Astrology. Both are acquired at random while studying constellations, where [[Stardust]] and [[Golden Stardust]] drops with a 1% and 0.20% chance per action respectively.


The rate at which stardust may be acquired by:
Each standard modifier requires 2550 {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} to max out, and each unique modifier requires 1550 {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}} to max out. This results in a total of {{ItemIcon|Stardust|qty=84150}} ({{TotH}} {{ItemIcon|Stardust|qty=114750}}) and {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust|qty=51150}} ({{TotH}} {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust|qty=69750 }}) needed to max out every modifier in astrology.
* '''Decreasing the action interval''' - The {{ItemIcon|Secret Stardust Potion|img=Secret Stardust Potion IV}} reduces the action interval by 3/5/10/15% depending on the potion's tier. Note that since the potions themselves use [[Stardust]] as an ingredient, maximising the {{Skill|Herblore}} preservation and doubling chances before creating any of these potions is highly recommended.
* '''Increasing the drop chance'''
** For {{ItemIcon|Stardust}}, the 25% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] provides a +1% bonus to the drop chance, for a maximum chance of 2%.
** For {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}, the 50% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] provides a +0.2% bonus, and {{PetIcon|Astro}} provides a +0.1% bonus to the drop chance, for a maximum chance of 0.5%.
* '''Increasing the drop quantity''' - Equipping the {{ItemIcon|Astrology Skillcape}} provides a +1 bonus to the quantity of both [[Stardust]] and [[Golden Stardust]] that is dropped.
