Priest Changes Coming!
Concillian,Feb 24 2006, 06:23 PM Wrote:Wands generally do signficantly more damage than an equivalent level melee weapon for a priest.

case in point:
item level 60 wand:

59.7 DPS  -- Talented is 74.6 DPS

item level 60 staff:
http://www.thottbot.com/?i=52121
51.4 DPS -- needs 116 STR to equal wand, needs 324 STR to equal DPS of wand + wand spec.

A holy / disc priest does a decent amount of wanding when solo.  At least I did when I was soloing as holy/disc.  25% increase in that damage is pretty significant.

Wands also ignore armour, can't be dodged, blocked or parried and work on runners. I never got very high as a priest but the difference between levelling with and without an up to date wand was dramatic. The downside is having to manually stop wand use and wait for cooldown before being able to cast spells.
