'''Lunar Eclipse''' is a term that describes the use of [[Wrath]] to [[proc]] the [[Balance#Balance|balance]] [[druid]] [[talent]] [[Eclipse]]. The term refers to the buff itself, not the rotation.

==Associated Rotation==
 
A balance druid using a lunar eclipse rotation will generally start by casting [[Faerie_Fire|faerie fire]] if it is in his specc, his two [[damage over time|dots]], and then being to cast [[Wrath]] until Eclipse procs, which will give the druid a 40% additional [[critical strike]] chance with his [[Starfire]] spell for 15 seconds, with another 15 seconds of downtime before Eclipse may proc again.
 
 
==Applications==
 
Since patch 3.1.0 changed Eclipse to increase the benefit it gives to wrath, lunar eclipse rotations are no longer always better than solar eclipse rotations. However, it is subjective and arguable whether or not a lunar or solar eclipse rotation is better. Generally, if the druid's [[Spell_haste|haste]] rating is above 400, that druid will want to use a Lunar eclipse rotation. Even though both methods of proccing Eclipse rely on the [[Random number generator|RNG]], lunar eclipse is even more a victim - the chance to proc Eclipse with Wrath is only 60% on a crit. This can cause a lot of grief and irritation, so it is easy to see how a solar eclipse would be more appealing to some.
