- Code:
Low tier: 25 + 2 * evoc
High tier: 15 + 2.5 * evoc
Rods: 5 + 3 * evoc
Charts updated.
Note that it's a nerf to the high tier wands at low skill. You need evoc 6 to reach the power it currently has at skill 0.
Regarding rods because I've been using a rod of destruction (ice - charged to +9 using only scrolls on a DEEP DWARF!!!! TALK ABOUT WASTE!) up the wahzoo for my recent character:
- Should rod power (+x) factor in, or is that just for melee/recharge rate/charges?
- Does evoc level reduce hunger from rod spell use?
- Should melee attacks using a rod cause ego-style damage (like certain magical staves), but use an expense of charge? I would love for my now +9 Rod of Destruction
- When is this going in? I would love to roll my current character over to it.
