I did a bit of testing and concluded that my suggestion was not possible(with quit scripts). So I guess the only possibility way is precise timing.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it possible to create an addon that runs a stopcasting command at the right time when you're spamming Starfire button such that the cast lines up when Lunar fades?

I think what he means is that Starfall guarentees consistant Nature's Grace procs, which in turn increases the amount of Starfire/Wraths casted, which then increases the chance of Eclipse procing.

Is it even worth it? Insect Swarm is only about 12% of your total damage. Arcane will still be the huge chunk of your DPS. Is 40 Spell Power still better then Sunfire?
