The Shooting star event is a distraction and diversion (D&D) event that occurs approximately 1,5-2 hours after the previous one has been fully mined. When a star crashes down, every player currently online will receive a red-printed game message about a noise. THe message varies according to the distance of the player to the star. To receive a hint about the location of the most recent star, players can go to the Observatory (just north of Castle wars) and talk to the Observatory assistant. The Observatory professor there will tell you if a star has landed already, or give an estimation on how long it'll take before another star falls down. Alternatively players can check the location of a star from the telescope in player-owned houses (POH).
The Shooting star generally holds 6 to 9 layers. With every extra layer players need a higher Mining level to mine it, up to level 90 for 9 layers. After players with a higher mining level have reduced the star to less layers, players with a lower mining level will be able to join too.
When mining a fallen star, players will receive Stardust and occasionally random Gems. There is only one onyx per star though. The player who mines the first stardust of a new star receives 10k bonus Mining experience as a reward for finding it. After that, the experience granted for mining the star is 120 + 2 times the Mining requirement for the current layer. A player with 99 mining will receive 300 xp per stardust at the first layer of a size 9 star. A size 9 star contains 1300 fragments of stardust. With stardust players can buy several rewards from the Sprite that appears when the star has been fully mined.
