Version 0.21: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
Type Wand
Name Wand of flame
Icon Wand of flame.png
A magical device which throws little bits of flame.

A wand of flame has the same effect as the spell Throw Flame, but its power is based on your Evocations skill (15+2.5×Evocations). This wand may have at most 48 charges.

Like other sources of fire, if it crosses a pool of water it will create a cloud of steam.

Tips & Tricks

Although it does produce fire, wands of flame are not powerful enough to burn trees. You'll need a wand of fire, wand of fireball, or a lucky shot from a wand of random effects for that.

Use this to take out electric eels even at low skill; the steam will block vision while damaging them.

History

Prior to 0.16, this wand could hold up to 24 charges.
