+*This wand is essentially identical to the old [[Throw Flame]] spell, which was level 2. Use it early: later on, it deals little damage even with high Evocations, due to the power cap. In the early Dungeon, it can act as a strong ranged attack even with little/no investment.
-*Like other sources of fire, if it crosses a pool of water, it will create a [[cloud]] of steam. Use this to take out [[electric eel]]s or other waterborne creatures, like [[list of merfolk|merfolk]]. Even at low skill, steam clouds can block vision and deal significant damage.
