Wands

Wands is an item class of one-handed ranged weapons that require intelligence, have a very high base critical strike chance, low base physical damage and a implicit modifier.

Maraketh weapons with this item class have a implicit instead. have the implicit instead.

One key note, if you are a Wand user purely focused on spell combat (such as many builds of Witch), note that the standard damage output and quality improvements through a have ZERO effect on the implicit modifiers to Spell Damage, Cast Speed or the like. So focus only on the implicit modifier; a low level wand with a high modifier and ideal socket set is better than a high level wand with a low modifier and/or bad sockets.

Wands may be dual wielded or worn with a shield, but cannot be equipped alongside other weapons such as sceptres or rune daggers.
