Wand is an item class of one-handed weapons that require intelligence to equip. They have no local attack stats, and instead roll modifiers for spells. Wands come with an implicit modifier that grants a specific spell; this spell is used instead of a default attack. This inherent spell will also receive any bonuses to skill level that correctly applies to that skill's tags.
A wand's level and intelligence requirement is based on the level of its granted skill implicit.
Mechanics
It is not possible to dual wield wands.
Modifier affinity
Explicit modifiers on wands (and staves) have some internal restrictions. Firstly, certain base types may have an "affinity" to a specific damage type which prevents certain modifiers without that affinity from being able to roll. The modifiers that are affected are:
- +# to Level of <Fire/Cold/Lightning/Physical/Chaos> Spell Skills (Modifier affinity: Fire/Cold/Lightning/Physical/Chaos)
- #% increased <Fire/Cold/Lightning/Chaos> Damage (Modifier affinity: Fire/Cold/Lightning/Chaos)
- #% increased Spell Physical Damage (Modifier affinity: Physical)
- Ailment modifiers #% increased chance to Ignite (Modifier affinity: Fire+Physical) #% increased Freeze Buildup (Modifier affinity: Cold+Physical) #% increased chance to Shock (Modifier affinity: Lightning+Physical)
where X represents a damage type. For example, a Volatile WandVolatile WandWandRequires Level 16Grants Skill: Level (5-20) Volatile Dead with a fire affinity can roll increased fire damage and chance to ignite, but not increased cold damage or chance to shock.
Other wand base types that do not have an affinity (e.g. Attuned WandAttuned WandWandRequires Level 2Grants Skill: Level (1-20) Mana Drain), can temporarily gain an affinity if it rolls any of the above modifiers, restricting its modifier pool. This affinity can be removed by removing any related modifiers. The recombinator ignores temporary affinity, allowing a base without affinity to have non-matching mods, but respects item affinity and will not move a mod to a base it could not naturally roll on.
This affinity mechanic is unrelated to the modifier tags visible in the item's advanced description. It instead applies and uses spawn weight tags (e.g. "no_fire_spell_mods").
