Wand

A wand is a one-handed projectile weapon. It may be linked to any of the attributes that are characteristic to spellcasters. Along with a focus, it is one of the two weapon sets preferred by casters. Wand and wanding are also used to refer to the act of attacking with a wand or staff.

Properties

• Equip: One-handed
• Maximum damage range¹: 11-22.
• Damage type: Chaos, Dark, Holy, Cold, Earth, Fire or Lightning, depending on linked attribute.
• Attack speed: 1.75 seconds.
• Range:² 1.2 danger zone radius.
• Projectile flight time:³ 0.56 seconds.
• Projectile arc size: Medium.⁴

1. Affected by height. Like all ranged weapons, damage increases if the target is at a lower height than the attacker and decreases if the target is at a higher height.
2. Same as normal spell range, not affected by height.
3. At a range of 1 danger zone radius.
4. Is slightly higher than the other medium arcs.

Models

This is a list of all the different appearances a wand may have. It is completely independent of its stats and modifiers; for example, a Jellyfish Wand will be as effective as a Platinum Wand if they share the same linked attribute, inscription and modifiers.
