Wands as Ranged Weapons

However, while canada goose black friday sale going through the text, I couldn figure out a way canada goose outlet Canada Goose Online reviews to make this work. Since wands all canada goose outlet store have built in spells, and a set canada goose outlet number of charges, the very canada goose outlet canada concept of holding onto a certain wand for the whole game canada goose coats on sale is kind of idiotic.

So I figured I might Canada Goose sale be able to design some rules of my own, canada goose outlet sale and I like some canada goose outlet online uk advice and/or suggestions.

To this end, I tooled in goose outlet canada a canada goose outlet nyc set of “attack” wands that, instead of holding a spell, are Canada Goose Jackets imbued with a certain damage type, and are uk canada goose then treated as if they an ordinary ranged weapon. For the purpose of this post, let say you have a Wand of Magic.

This wand will do 1d6 magic canada goose outlet uk damage, will scale off of your BAB as normal, and have unlimited uses. Casting in melee is still subject to provoking AoO like a official canada goose outlet bow would. You can also purchase these wands with enhancement bonuses and such. To hit would be the same as any mundane weapon, rather canada goose outlet online than a ranged touch.

I also wrote a feat tree to further support this style of play

Wand Adept: Allows you to use a canada goose clearance wand as a canada goose outlet black friday ranged weapon, and allows using canada goose factory outlet your main casting stat for to hit and damage rolls. (This feat would be effectively a requirement to make any use of combat wands)

Wand Focus: Allows multiple attacks as determined by BAB, requiring at least 6/ 1 and Wand Adept.

Wand Master: Once Per day, you can store an extra spell in your wand as if it a prepared spell and activate it at will.

These feats are kind of garbage, but I tried to make them as balanced as I could without breaking anything. I open to suggestions.

I wondering if this might seem overpowered somehow, or if it might work with the rest of pathfinder.

Also, Spheres of Power does this canada goose outlet in https://www.canadagooseparkasoutlet.ca usa well. Wand is canada goose clearance sale treated as a weapon. You can even it up to canada goose black friday sale be more powerful. Treated as using a wand so never more than once per turn. Works really well imo. They canada goose uk outlet also have staffs that make cheap Canada Goose sense for me as they actually power the caster up.

If you put any canadian goose jacket of the really potent effects on it then it costs SP that have to be stored in canada goose store the buy canada goose jacket cheap wand. Storing SP in the wand is slow and painful. You have to spend level ups when you upgrade the wand to store more SP. It can only be recharged canada goose jacket outlet once per day, and you have to have a higher CL than the wand (though, that only really a problem for the people that would have other combat options. Pure casters are usually golden).

I built a few for my players though and the Destruction wands are amazing for caster weapons. It allows them to be budget blasters. They can be pretty versatile, but doing so reduces wand power. The one the players loved the most was a stock blasting wand. 3d6 damage, can be slashing piercing or bludgeoning, targets touch ac, and minimum roll on the damage dice buy canada goose jacket is a 3 (so minimum of 9 damage). Spending the wands canada goose outlet store uk only spell point amped the damage to 6d6 for canada goose factory sale one attack. Casters loved it. Martials didn care because it was still casting a spell and weren overshadowed by the damage output. Right Canada Goose Parka now, it doesn indicate what level spell I could store in the wand, what action it takes canada goose outlet new Canada Goose online york city to cast the spell, or if there are any prerequisites. cheap canada goose uk I presume it would take either the canada goose outlet Canada Goose Outlet shop same action required to cast Canada Goose Coats On Sale the spell as if you had prepared it, or a full round action (akin to spontaneously casting spells with metamagic), and I guess you need at least the wand adept feat to take it if not also wand focus. But the way it written now I would canada goose uk black friday canada goose outlet toronto factory essentially get an extra canada goose coats spell slot of my uk canada goose Canada Goose online outlet highest canada goose outlet uk sale spell level, which is pretty insane for a feat.

I say the feat should at least have a prerequisite of Wand Adept and the ability to cast 3rd level spells, and you can store one spell up to two spell levels lower than the highest canada goose outlet jackets level spell you can cast. canada goose Even still, that pretty far outside the canada goose outlet parka scope canada goose uk shop of the magic feats I familiar with. This ends up being a slightly worse wizard bonded object without the drawbacks.
