Discover the Top 3 Wands in Avowed: Unleash Powerful Magic Now!

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but be thrilled about Obsidian Entertainment’s upcoming spin-off of Pillars of Eternity, titled Avowed. What sets this high-fantasy action role-playing game apart is its intricate, engaging magic system that seamlessly integrates with the dynamic combat. Players have already noticed a preference for ranged attacks in this ARPG, given its population of fierce monsters and unsavory outlaws. At the heart of this strategy are Wands, which prove to be indispensable tools in navigating the dangerous world of Avowed.

In simpler terms, the game’s limited number of wands offer a fast and potent method for wizards to deal substantial damage from a relatively safe distance. They can harness power comparable to large melee weapons, while providing quick, accurate projectile attacks similar to guns or bows. Due to their strength and adaptability (which can be improved through the Wizard Ability Tree), it’s no wonder they are often preferred by experienced wizards. These top-tier examples represent the cream of the crop.

As a passionate enthusiast, I’d like to clarify that all presented statistics are based on the top-tier enhancements (Legendary for Uniques and Superb for the standard Wands). It’s important to note that each Wand carries a weight of two units.

(Superb) Wand – Honorable Mention

Physical Damage	Stun	Stamina	Critical Chance
94	80	12	6%

In the game Avowed, wands are relatively prevalent, yet even the less expensive versions can inflict harm effectively when utilized and optimized via the Wizard Ability Tree. However, players should collect an array of items such as Soft/Hard/Petrified/Blackwood Branches, Paradisan Ladders, Hylea’s Talons, Admeth’s Wyrt, and Cave Coral, to enhance their weaker wands into the powerful Superb (x3) version, which is currently the best it can be upgraded.

Using a top-tier regular Wand to its full capacity can match the physical damage of rarer Unique Wands, making it easier for players to enhance and dismantle them for useful resources since they can acquire another high-end standard Wand. If this wand eventually gains Legendary potential, it might even outperform the current Unique Wands in raw damage. However, there are still a few superior Wands to consider at present.

3. Cruel Command

A Cruel Fate For One’s Foes

Physical Damage	Stun	Stamina	Critical Chance
116	104	12	6%

Apart from its effectiveness in blocking and parrying, this Wand doesn’t have many unique features, particularly when compared to its other distinctive Wand counterparts. It has a decent damage output and stun capability, but these attributes are also found in its other Unique Wands. The enchantment “Cower Before Me” enhances its stun potential, increasing the stun effect by 75% on targets with full health.

In most battles involving two allies, your foes won’t get to enjoy full health for long because they will be quickly defeated. Essentially, this enchantment favors stealth and dodging, as its other enchantment, named “Rewarding Disloyalty,” reduces incoming damage by 25% for ten seconds following a successful parry.

This weapon excels in stealth situations as it’s quieter when approaching enemies, but it might not perform as well during intense combat. In tribute to the fiery deity that originally wielded it, its “Burning Lash” perk increases Fire Damage by 10%, which is beneficial for Wizards who specialize in fire magic, although this bonus is relatively modest.

How To Get Cruel Command

You can purchase this Wand from Stockkeeper Eberk, who lives in the Southern Warden Tower, which is situated in the Galawain’s Tusks region.

2. Minoletta’s Conduit

A Conduit Of Pain

Physical Damage	Stun	Stamina	Critical Chance
116	104	12	6%

Named after a renowned archmage famous for powerful missile spells, Minoletta’s Conduit offers an impressive display of strength and distance that will captivate Wizards, Fighters, and Rangers. The Enchantment “Charged (and Overcharged) Missile” amplifies its destructive potential at medium range, and it even serves as a near-equivalent to a magical bow due to boosting “attack damage by 5%” and extending the Wand’s maximum range to 30%. To top it off, “Shocking Lash” provides an extra 10% bonus Shock damage.

Minoletta’s Conduit is a versatile tool that impresses various classes with its power and reach. The “Charged (and Overcharged) Missile” enchantment makes it a potent medium-range weapon, almost acting as a magical bow because it increases the Wand’s attack damage by 5% and extends its maximum range to 30%. Additionally, it has an extra feature called “Shocking Lash,” which adds a 10% bonus Shock damage.

Players might prefer to move stealthily or maintain a safe distance from enemies due to the Conduit’s tendency to lose potency when surrounded by multiple mobs. This can happen often if the Wizard using this Wand is attacking foes repeatedly for high damage. However, those who can keep their distance will find it a reliable weapon.

How To Get Minoletta’s Conduit

In Fior Mes Iverno, this Wand can be purchased at Abritt Porrya’s shop, Porrya & Vellino, which is located in a town situated in the central-eastern region of the Emerald Stair.

1. Whisper Of Exiles

Conjuring An Icy Demise

Physical Damage	Stun	Stamina	Critical Chance
116	104	12	6%

Originally wielded by the frost-loving sorcerer Ryngrim, this artifact, devoid of divine influence, packs a punch even when plundered from its resting chest. However, upon enhancement, it transforms into a veritable power source across various aspects. The enchantment titled “Flight in Autumn” bestows moderate frost buildup on adversaries nearby, a trait that intensifies even more with the activation of “Exodus in Winter.

In simpler terms, the “Ill-Fated Return” wand causes a lot of Frost Accumulation (150) to the enemy you attack. Essentially, this wand is great for dealing damage and freezing enemies, making it ideal for disruptive attacks and powerful shatters, especially when used with Charge from the Fighter Tree.

How To Get The Whisper Of Exiles

To get hold of this prized Wand, you’ll find it by opening a chest (keep in mind, you’ll need five lockpicks) at the heart of the vast Great Sand Sea, known as Shatterscarp. You can locate it approximately southeast of Broken Crown Rock. Be prepared for a rocky area teeming with Dreamthralls that will require attention.
