Type	Wand
Name	Wand of fireball
Icon

A magical device which throws exploding blasts of flame.

Evoking a wand of fireball has the same effect as casting the spell Fireball, blasting a tile and everything adjacent to it for moderate EV-bypassing fire damage. It has perfect accuracy, but creates a lot of noise and can injure you if you fire it at a tile adjacent to you. Its spell power is based upon your Evocations skill.

It can hold at most 15 charges.

Tips & Tricks

Characters without access to Fire Magic can use wands of fireball to burn down trees.

History

Prior to 0.17, it could hold at most 9 charges.
