Wands


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


Hi Paizo community, first time post. I am building a list of items, and planning to share the list under the Paizo Community Use Policy. Among the items in the list are wands.

I have a list of spells level 1-4. Is it reasonable to assume that any of these spells could be in a wand?

The GM Guide has a list of random wands, which only scratches the surface of available spells level 1-4. Are there any spells which absolutely do not belong in a wand?

Sovereign Court

All spells 1-4 can be on wands but well, some are more or less more useful than others like swift action spells are wasted on wands. It's usually better to put on wands stuffs that don't rely on saves/dc etc...


You probably don't find many wands of Lesser Planar Ally (incredibly expensive), Sepia Snake Sigil (incredibly expensive and rather useless), Control Water (why?) or Cure Serious Wounds (just buy lots of CLW instead; its much cheaper).

0th level spells can be in a wand too, though not all are worth bothering with, such as Bleed or Virtue.
