99% of players use Low level wands over High end wands because of the built ins

Diabolic Wand's 5% armor spell bonus should be on all wands. NErf the Diabolic Wands ASB to 2-3%.

AOE Size on high end wands is not at all useful as Armor spell bonus, Cast Speed, All Magic Bonus, so players are going to use low end wands over high end wands.

Diabolic Wand has 2 AMB 2 CAST 5ASB making it king of wands.

Knowing ej he will probably just nerf Diabolic Wand but I say just up high end wands.

The below images are some suggested changes to make end game wands more useful

Any change you can include the equip levelof these wands?

Maybe we can spread these wands out a level better other than 65+

Can we make daggers useful as well? Or remove them from game idk. They are useful after 30 imo.

Yeah, daggers need some love. You lose way too much survivability to wear one.

Suggestions:

Put the armor spell bonus of 5% on 120 wands, lower wands 4% , 3lthen 3% etc. Gradual increase from spirit wand.

Or change AOE size on wands to critical magic.

ADDED new photo to original post on some ideas.


I suggest wiping all wands above item lvl 90 so ppl have something to look forward to.
Reintroduction of wands def means wipe them as there are thousands of wands ready to be $ sold.

Take all gear that is level 65 equip, squish them all down to be at or around the same ilevel in terms of stats, but give each item positive, negative and unique properties. So here if we are talking about wands, a Draconic wand is on the same ilevel and power as Oblivion wand, however you can have Oblivion wand be more damage output oriented with having + AMD + Cast speed, but - to ASB - HP, while Draconic Wand will have - Critical Magic, + ASB, +HP + Heal on hit, etc. Have Adept wands be different than Draconic and Oblivion and maybe give them some unique properties.

Don't just make the higher level item exactly the same but better then the previous tier. This is the issue cause in the end, no one will want to use Draconic, Vexar, Adept wand, they will want Oblivion (given enough time that there are many of each in game). Having varied items like the above suggestion makes all the wands useful and there will be value for all based on the type of character you want to play/build.

Lets face it, all other gear below equip 65 will really have no value - who will pay alot for a Dirus wand to get use out of it for only 5 levels. But there should be alot of ilevel 65 gear that is all about the same power (same ilevel) but varied alot in properties. This will make the end game fun as you really have to choose the type of character you want to be based on build and the type of gear you choose to use, and not just trying to get the highest ilevel of gear because it is better than the lower tiers.

Would really like to see some kind of response on this as the current state of wands seems like it was an oversight.
