Zapping a '''wand of hasting''' affects the target as though it were the recipient of the [[Haste]] spell, reducing the time it takes to complete any action by 33%. This is an extremely valuable find for pure melee fighters or casters who don't wish to bother with [[Charms]], providing indestructible access to a very powerful buff without any wasted XP. Be careful not to overuse it; remaining hasted for too long will cause you to accumulate dangerous levels of [[magical contamination]].
