Name Wand of quicksilver
Icon Wand of quicksilver.png
A magical device which fires a beam of destructive energy, dispelling enchantments on creatures struck.

The wand of quicksilver fires a Quicksilver Bolt. This is a powerful, somewhat inaccurate bolt, which ends all cancelable effects when it hits.

Players will deal 6d(4.16 + 7 * Evocations/9) damage with this wand.[1] Players have a to-hit of 10.6 + (3.5 * Evocations)/25.[2]

Monsters will deal 3d(7 + (30 + HD)/14) damage with this wand.[3]

It is slightly stronger than the wand of acid and wand of light. Only one of the three "beam" wands may exist in any given game.

Tips & Tricks

  • There are many effects that you can dispel. In addition to every effect from a potion of cancellation, quicksilver can also stop effects like Word of Recall and Bind Souls.
  • You may use this wand on yourself as a self-harming potion of cancellation.

History

  • The wand of quicksilver was added in 0.29.

    Specifically, you'll deal 6d(15/6 * pow/9) damage, for pow = 15 + 3.5 * Evocations (evoke.cc:177 (0.30.0)). If you have the MP-Powered Wands mutation, then your "pow" gains a +33% boost.
