| A magical device which speeds up the actions of a targeted creature. |
Useful Info
A wand of hasting inflicts the Haste status on the user or a target, making all actions take 2/3rds as long. It causes some magical contamination as you are hasted.
It can hold at most 9 charges.
Strategy
Haste is a very powerful buff. Hasting yourself will help in just about any sticky situation, and win fights you otherwise wouldn't. Don't be hasted for too long (more than 2 zaps), or you'll be inflicted with dangerous contamination levels.
When players could still learn the Haste spell, the wand of hasting allowed you to speed yourself up without any skill investment. Even for those with Haste, wands of hasting can be used during silence.
Can also be used to speed up monsters, but this wand has fewer charges than most other wands.
