I have heard that there are wands that are uniquely attuned to each player, as in they are the only one that can get them? When a player gets to about level 30 when they use most wands, what if the player felt mental tuggings from that wand that is attuned to them? So at least that way the person will know approximately where to look, and have access to at least that wand? Feel free to flame.

I don't see us making it easier for mages to get A/B/S.

First off, there are more rumors about how the wand system works than I can care to count, and the Imms rarely tell which ones have any truth to them or not.

Now, for the meat of my post. Every post I read about wands boils down to "It needs to be easier to find wands" and yet, a fair percentage of mages I fight, have wands. This means either cheating and information sharing is still rampant, or that at least some of the playerbase doesn't have any problems finding wands. I'd like to optimistically think it is the latter.

When I read a post from someone that starts out "I only play warriors" and ends with "mages are too easy to kill because they don't have any protections" I'll agree that the system needs changing.
