PoE Adds # to # Lightning/Fire/Cold Damage to Spells Vendor Recipes

Wand and Vendor Recipe changes 3.21

The Vendor Recipe granting flat Elemental Damage to Spells no longer exists.

  • e.g. Adds # to # Lightning/Fire/Cold Damage to Spells

Weapons created using this recipe in the first few acts were powerful enough sources of damage to not need to be replaced until players reached even the final few acts of the campaign, which is not ideal. Players should be actively considering weapon replacements as they progress through the levelling process, an aspect of levelling which was undercut by the existence of this vendor recipe. This also gave spellcasters a significant damage advantage in early acts.

We have also changed the implicit modifiers of many Wands. These changed wands now have a new implicit which grants specific flat Elemental Damage to Spells and Attacks. This means that it will still be feasible (through these bases as well as explicit modifiers) to obtain flat Elemental Damage early on, while adding some more consistent early flat damage for wand attackers to take advantage of. There are also endgame variants of these base types, which adds more variety to wand bases.

The following Wands have received new Implicit modifiers:

  • Goat’s Horn: Adds 1-2 to 3-4 Fire Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 10-14% increased Spell Damage).
  • Quartz Wand: Adds 2-3 to 4-7 Cold Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 18-22% increased Spell Damage).
  • Spiraled Wand: Adds 1-2 to 9-11 Lightning Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 15-19% increased Spell Damage).
  • Faun’s Horn: Adds 5-10 to 11-13 Fire Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 20-24% increased Spell Damage).
  • Crystal Wand: Adds 4-8 to 10-12 Cold Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 29-33% increased Spell Damage).
  • Coiled Wand (previously Serpent Wand): Adds 1-2 to 22-24 Lightning Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 26-30% increased Spell Damage).
  • Demon’s Horn: Adds 18-36 to 53-59 Fire Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 31-35% increased Spell Damage).
  • Opal Wand: Adds 14-29 to 42-47 Cold Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 38-42% increased Spell Damage).
  • Tornado Wand: Adds 3-5 to 70-82 Lightning Damage to Spells and Attacks (previously 35-39% increased Spell Damage).

Some Unique Wands are found on new basetypes as a result of the above changes:

  • Piscator’s Vigil is now an Imbued Wand (previously Tornado Wand).
  • Apep’s Rage is now an Omen Wand (previously Opal Wand).
  • Obliteration is now an Imbued Wand (previously Demon’s Horn).
  • Eclipse Solaris is now an Engraved Wand (previously Crystal Wand).
  • Ashcaller is now a Carved Wand (previously Quartz Wand).
  • Tulborn is now an Opal Wand (previously Spiraled Wand).
