I have long been a fan of the Dex-Stacking wander archetype, and was rather disappointed when wands didn’t get the 1-3 per Dex mod for the crucible tree. Regardless, I made due with the 25% implicit modifier magnitude, which gives us 2-5 instead of 2-4.
The expensive part of this wand is going to be the crucible tree and the implicits, especially considering the price of Imprint Beasts (Craicic Chimerals) this league.
Making the explicits is more simple. Making the prefix you Woe Essence spamming till t1 WED, lock prefixes and aisling and hope you get a prefix to try and unveil Elemental Pen.
Suffixes are a little more expensive since you can’t guarantee the save of Attack speed if you don’t get t1 proj speed, but still simple. Just prefix lock -> aug speed till t1 of either mod, prefix lock -> aug speed again and hope you don’t snipe off the other speed mod in the process of getting t1.
Once I saw the crucible trees I knew I had to make this wand this league. I know Dex-Stacking on wands isn’t the most popular archetype out there, but I felt I’d be doing what few of us there are a disservice if I didn’t do my best to make this wand.
