Schwarzbart Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 The Legate mentioned that we will be able to improve the True Holly Negation Wand trough the years because people mentioned hat they think its weak. As I was the writer of this adventure I suspect I'm at last partial responsible for the continue and so I wonder where you think in what direction the wand should evolve! (Personal I think the Negation Wand is still superior to the Balanced Wand at last for a Negation Magic specialist because the wand add to all SS and also to the main skill resulting in a +2 to the main skill) Theory of Negation 15 thanks to Ana Flavia + 3 Protective Mind Set +1 True Holly Negation Wand +1 what is a great value to use in Revision of Skills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Well, I think that most items found in Y1 are probably on the weak side if we're going to look at all 5 years. I intend to increase the capability of the wand of insanity in mr pebbles' Y2 adventure even if it's already pretty powerful for a Y1 item.

Schwarzbart Posted December 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 I couldn't find the wand of Insanity in the item list of the latest modbase. Can you give me the correct name of it or in what shop/ adventure you can find it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 With luck it will be in DLC 16... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted December 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Sad looks like there no ideas right now on this. Probably I have to push this again when year 2 is released and we know more about the more common items there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 The thing about the handcrafted negation wand is, (and I did enjoy the adventures) is that compared to the balanced wand it's crafted and customtailored for you. Unlike the Balanced wand that's vendor bought. There is also a vendorbought Negation wand out there that's fairly decent that adds a lot of things. This all brings me back to the a new girl adventure, where we're told it's more difficult to use another wizards wand than your own, following that logic a wand that you created using your own magical powers and preferences should offer better attributes to just about any action compared to a wand bought at a supermarket. Even if they are created in the most neutral possible way with the ability to attune to the user uppon taking posession. It still shouldn't be in the same league as an item you create on your own that's infused by your own magic and flavor. Least that's my reasoning. A skilled crafter would gain an advantage here but that would requier them to spend the time to learn the required skill to create the artifact to begin with. Time that could have been spent perfecting other skills and abilities. The better the artifact the more skill they will need to create it. Which makes it understandable that as your skills grow, you realise that there is more you could do to make an even better wand or improve the one you got.

Schwarzbart Posted December 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Now one also can reason the other way around, its the first wand you crafted and so its worse then a wand crafted by a good enchanter who usually can sell them trough a store. Beside that you also got a lasting passive ability from working on the wand! But its a good idea for a adventure in year 2 or 3 to attune the wand to you what rise the power of this wand for you and just for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 I was thinking the same about attuning your wand in later years. If you got a wizard in the family they might tell you about it.(background) which would then happen durign your summer, surely they would want to help you, they might want some help in exchange though. If you havn't, students in your class or teachers might talk about it, if it isn't part of a class but you are given the idea then you can study the details in the Library, (adventure after the school starts again).

Albert Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Actualy, all wands should have a stat "attuned" or "unattuned", even storebought wands. It would be a little bit like the Perfectly revised bonus if you revised your items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 albert; That's an interesting idea, and maybe we can make more use of that in Y3 and have a wand attunement system. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
