In WK you find Wand(s) Of Spell striking and are charcged with charcges of Breach and Pierce magic. The problem is->only usable by:Mages&Sorcerers.
But Mages&Sorceres have these spells! Becuase of that it should be usable by anyone,especially they should be usable by any class beside Mages&Sorcerers.

Small nitpick: The Wands of Spellstriking are also useable by Bards.

Small trivia: Mages, Sorcerers and Bards' Breach is an Abjuration spell - while the Wands' Breach is not. It's not treated as a 5th level spell, too. Feel the potential?

As for your actual post... I have to disagree. Allowing this Wand to be used by other classes will seriously unbalance the game in favor of non-magical soloists - who will have a grand day when they'll put their hands over this baby, knowing that no stoneskinned wizards is going to stand in their way from then on.

You are not happy if you are not nit-pickable right? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well you have a really good point there(are you ever wrong [img]smile.gif[/img] ) but let`s take a Paladin with Carsomyr for example. If a mage doesn`t prebuff PfMW(like with Tactics Mod) then a Paladin with Carsomyr would be the same.

I love that wand. It frees up tons of spell slots (Can never take too many Sunfires), especially when you want to solo.

The stoneskins of the powerful mages are your last care [img]smile.gif[/img] Even stoneskined the wizard can be hit and with some swords one hit is absolutely enough.

For the soloing note: there are two spells of highest importance Project Image and Simulacrum. I mean breach and pierce magic are not so important or even useless when soloing master of 'the art'.
