Stars are objects that spawn around the map. There are two types of stars: crit stars and vitality stars. They are exclusive to Star Collector Stella.

Obtaining

Stars spawn randomly around the map. Players using the Star Collector Stella kit can collect these stars by interacting with them. Stars will last for one minute before despawning.

Types of stars

Crit Star

Players can consume crit stars to increase their Critical Chance. Consuming crit stars will give the player and any nearby teammates a 3% increase to their critical chance and increases the minimum and maximum possible critical damage.

Crit Star Damage Formula

$b(x,y)=x+x\cdot 1.25\cdot {100-y \over 100},$

where $b(x,y)$ is the crit damage, $x$ is base DMG dealt, $y$ is consumed crit stars.

Vitality Star

Players can consume vitality stars to permanently increase the player's and any nearby teammates' health by 2 every time. The effect of vitality stars will scale down as more are used.

Trivia

• In Penguin Survival V2, using vitality stars would make the game think the players took damage.
  • This prevented the player from getting the Penguin Survival Hard Mode badge if they consumed too many vitality stars.
• Players can stack the Crit Star's critical damage using Critical Strike.
• After all of the nerfs, Star spawn rate is about a third of what it used to be at launch of Season 5.
