Notes

• Using non-celestial version of skills creates visual effect of spring and stones roughly indicating skill radius, and golden tethers between druid and allies within skill radius. Tether appears in pulses, indicating which allies are under Glyph of the Stars (non-celestial). Celestial version of this skill applies effect of falling stars in zone and creates celestial-looking tethers (also in pulses) with allies under Glyph of the Stars (Celestial Avatar).

Anomaly:

Despite the tooltip showing a 7 second casting time and 60 second recharge, Glyph of the Stars (non-celestial) and Glyph of the Stars (Celestial Avatar) have a 1 second casting time and 48 second recharge.
