Astrology is a skill that provides passive buffs to various other skills in the game similar to the Agility skill. Modifiers will be unlocked as you level up your mastery in each constellation, and the buff can be upgraded by spending Stardust or Golden Stardust to level up that buff to a maximum level of 5 for Golden Stardust buffs and 8 for Stardust buffs.

This article is about the Astrology skill. For training the skill, see Astrology/Training.

Mechanics

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   Stardust,   Golden Stardust, or to ( ) discover a Meteorite.

Acquiring Stardust

Both   Stardust and   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.

The rate at which stardust may be acquired can be increased by:

Modifiers

Each Constellation starts with 6 predetermined Stars (modifiers) that are unlocked by increasing the   Mastery Level of the Constellation. Upgrading Stars that provide standard modifiers costs   Stardust, while upgrading Stars that provide unique modifiers costs   Golden Stardust. The modifier starts at 0, so you need to use the appropriate type of Stardust to benefit from a Stars modifiers.

The maximum amount of upgrades you can put into a Star modifier is determined by the type of modifier. Normal modifiers can go up to level 8, whereas unique modifiers can only go up to level 5.

Each upgrade gives a linear increase to the bonus.

The first upgrade needs 10   Stardust or 50   Golden Stardust. With each upgrade, the cost of   Stardust or   Golden Stardust will double, resulting in the last upgrade of a star costing 1,280   Stardust or 800   Golden Stardust.

Each standard modifier requires 2550   Stardust to max out, while each unique modifier requires 1550   Golden Stardust to max out. This results in a total of 84,150   Stardust (  114,750   Stardust) and 51,150   Golden Stardust (  69,750   Golden Stardust) needed to max out every modifier in astrology.

Despite the wording Unique Modifier, the modifiers do stack with similar types of modifiers, e.g.   Deedree's   Mastery Level 20 star (up to +5% Farming Yield) stacks with the +3% Farming Yield from   Bob's Gloves
