New to Wands...

    This may have been answered elsewhere in this forum a number of times; forgive me if I couldn't find it in a Search, but it could very well be I was looking under the wrong categories (it's happened ;->). My question is this:

    What chuckle-headed idiot dev decided to make most Wands below level 90 into one-handed melee weapons? Ronald Weasley ("Stop! Stop! Stop --" /crack "My wand...")? :mad:

    Sorry, but when I think "wand," I think of a small, thin stick of wood (or whatever) that you'd use to zap something at a distance. Imagine my shock and dismay when, after using way too many pieces of rare wood below level 90 to make my casters what I thought were Ranged category wands, only to find way too late that apparently, I didn't read the label on the item with Examine Product beforehand. X-P

    Please tell me that our Research Apprentices can come up with recipes for REAL Wands below Godzilla level? :-/

    They were called 'wands' well before spell-ranged auto-attack was even twinkle in the devs eyes :p

    Ah! So, it's just new to me... ;->

    Still. Wands are for range, "like cubes are for hugs" (-- Lera). :-/
