Anger of Druzzil is spell haste on fire spells i believe. May be wrong but i'm pretty sure it goes Eci=cold haste druzzil=fire. I think there are more like that but dont know the names.
Anger of E'ci = 23% Ice base spell increaser Anger of Druzzil = 23% Magic base spell increaser Anger of Ro = 23% Fire base spell increaser Anger of Solusek = 25% all spell increaser
Fury of E'ci = 30% Ice base spell increaser Fury of Druzzil = 30% Magic base spell Increase Fury of Ro = 30% Fire base spell increaser Fury of Solusek = 30% all spell increase
Wrath of E'ci = 35% Ice base spell increaser Wrath of Druzzil = 35% Magic base spell increaser Wrath of Ro = 35% Fire base spell increaser
Vengeance of Ice = 40% Ice base spell increaser Vengeance of Magic = 40% Magic base spell increaser Vengeance of Fire = 40% Fire base spell increaser
Discordant Ice = 45% Ice base spell increaser http://lucy.allakhazam.com/item.html?id=68913
Discordant Magic/Energy = 45% Magic base spell increaser
Discordant Fire/Flame = 45% Fire base spell increaser
LoL, Ihave to say the posts were very amusing but I'm a 65 necro and was curious to whether this effect would be utilized on neurotoxin or life taps etc..
ie whatever Improved Damage focus you have that is highest will take effect.
If you have Mana Pres 3 and Affliction Efficiency 3, both of which reduce mana costs, but MP3 is on almost all spells, whereas AE3 just affects Affliction-type spells... whichever has the highest % of Focus will take hold.
There are some spells and bard songs that will stack with worn focus effects, though.
Anger of E'Ci (worn) + Iceflame of E'Ci (wizard self buff)+ Rizlona's (Bard song) = lots of Damage on Ice Spear of Solist and Ancient: Destruction of Ice =)
Last I checked, Rizlona's doesn't stack with Iceflame of E`ci, since spell-based focus effects don't stack, just like hastes. You can still get the +53% damage from Anger+Iceflame of E`ci.
bard songs dont nessicarily count against buffs. IE you can have C5 and wind of marr at the same time and they stack, also you can have 1 haste item, 1 haste buff, and bard haste all stack, so i would guess that they all 3 would stack, havent tested it yet with a bard.
Guild raid last nite...we went int, got killed and needed alot of rezes the first time. we re-grouped, went back in and swept the place. (only a few deaths) well anyway one fo these bad boys dropped. shame its not wiz only, but hey, i haven't seen many people with it soo no difference. The ugly ogre seemed to be aroun lvl 65. he conned yellow to a 63 and to a 64. P.S. too bad i lost roll, maybe next time
You'd think after all of the mag only, pal only, enc only loot they stuffed luclin to the brim with, something named 'Wand of the War Wizard' would be wizard only!
Would love to pick up this item for my enchanter. Plusses to both critical stats, Mana, HP/Sta, AC, and decent save bonuses. The focus effect wouldn't help us too much in the later game (as we are really more for buffing than damage output) but nonetheless it is still really nice. Anyone know how much one of these would go for?
Here's a better post than the ones below. Wow a focus effect that's better than any magician made one on an item that isn't half bad to have as an offhand as a caster. Great item. See, no worrying about the name or what it looks like or what it should be.
Uhh.. a Wand is not normally considered a weapon. A wand would be a finely-tuned magical (short)staff, normally, so this would be a Wand. And as for Wand of the War Wizard, my bet would be that the mob that drops it is the War Wizard...

Posted:Nov 14 2002 at 6:08 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) VI needs to look at how they name things, with a name like "Want of the War Wizard" I was thinking it would be WIZ only and an uber weapon of like 1HB with 20/20 or something like that. Not some week *** shield!
Always ones to "borrow" ideas from other well founded fastasy schools, VI has done it again with this one. In Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series, the protagonist Richard is a War Wizard. One with both sides of the magical gift. He is the most powerful wizard born in 3000 years, yet he can hardly use his magic most of the time. But his potential for power is untold. Being as how this effect would make a nuker more powerful than someone without the effect, I see the item's name as being quite fitting.
God I'm tired of comparing everything Verant does to other fantasy realms out there. Yes, Verant has been guilty of it in the past, but this is not the case. Unless you can prove Terry Goodkind has a patent on the name "War Wizard" I think it just chalks up to Verant using a common fantasy genre term..."Battle Mage" comes to mind as another one.
Good god people. Everyone is so ready to jump all over a poster and mark their posts down...
Incase your reading comprehension is less than stellar I'll spell it out nice and easy like:
I WAS SAYING THAT IT WAS A GOOD NAME FOR THE ITEM.
Yes VI borrows archetypes and generic fantasy consructs from everywhere, but so does every other game and book, that wasn't the point. I didn't say Goodkind made the term up or that he owns it. I was merely pointing out a well read series in which that term is used in a manner that is comparable to what it means in regards to this item. If that deserves a 1 rating then I quit wasting my time posting here.
