This is one of my favorite items and I still have it on me, just for fun. Makes me think I'm a Spiral Mage sometimes:P

Anyways, the "Wrench Wand" has no alchemy path...so I figured give it a new one. It will have two possible paths: a healing path, and a mage path.

Mage Path:

Wrench Wand (**)
-Burning Wand(***)
Charge attack: Two Bolts Shotted
Description: A wand belonging to one of the Tenderfoot Scorchers. You feel a slight burn from holding it.
--Scorching Wand(****)
Charge attack: Two Big Bolts Shotted
Description: A wand belonging to one of the Ironclaw Scorchers, a stronger clan of the gremlins. You feel your hand melting from the power just by holding it.
---Blazing Wand (*****)
Charge attack: Three Big Bolts Shotted
Description: A wand belonging to one of the Darkfang Scorchers, the strongest clan of the gremlins. Please be sure to have Fireproof gloves on you at all times holding this wand!

Healing Path:
Wrench Wand(**)
-Tenderfoot Wand(***)
Charge attack: Heal the person 1/5 of total health.
Description: A wand belonging to one of the Tenderfoot Menders. You can feel the soothing energy coming out of it.
--Ironclaw Wand(****)
Charge attack: Heal the person 1/4 of total health.
Description: A wand belonging to one of the Ironclaw Menders, a stronger clan of the gremlins. Touching it soothes your pains.
---Darkfang Wand(*****)
Charge attack: Heal the person 1/3 of total health.
Description: A wand belonging to one of the Darkfang Menders, the strongest clan of the gremlins. Just holding it gives you the power to heal even the weariest knight.

So...what do you think?

Healing is OP

Especially as a charge attack, besides Three rings said, I think, that they aren't adding any healing items.

Although I would like to see this weapon get a 5 star line. One thing I thought was, for its charge attack, it'd shoot a ball like it does, but when it reaches the end, if it doesn't hit anything, it makes a rather large explosion. Be almost the pulsar of swords, because it literally has to miss to be good.

I saw a wrench wand recently

I saw a wrench wand recently in T2 pvp. I thought it was cute, until he beat me in the face with it and killed me.

It was surprisingly effective for a 2* weapon.

Get rid of the healing

Get rid of the healing branch, and it would definetly appeal to the developers. Other than the healing branch, Awesome!

I see...no healing. Okay

Well, just the mage path at least is fine by me. I mean, it's a fun weapon^^

Wrench Wands, FTW

I think the devs are probably not going to introduce healing. I myself am fine with them doing something else with the Wrench Wand stats, but whatever they do, I'd *really* like to see Wrench Wands get an alchemy path to 4* or 5*. It's such a cool and fun little weapon, but I just don't use mine, because...well, it's 2*.

Like it.

I like the idea of the wrench wand getting some upgrades but i might be a little shakey on giving it an elemental status, thats what the brandish is for....

change the healing for da

change the healing for da bubble they have on T3- but it should give +defense not inmunity OR make you invul and remove attacks/make you slower/curse you for balance's sake.

@ Juances

Oh my god that would be amazing.
It wouldn't heal, and it wouldn't remove status effects, but a bubble that
A.) Increases overall defense, and lowers the defense of monsters who enter
B.) Makes the timer on your status go down 50% faster (so it doesn't remove it, but it makes the time go down faster so you deal with it less).

It'd be support sword like a boss, but at the same time it's not really healing, just giving you more stability.

I would love this, but then again something like this might be better as a bomb. A sword doing this makes me feel like I'm some sort of mage, and we're spiral knights. Knights. I don't really think that a weapon like that would fit into the equation, but as a bomb it might.

I'm not saying the wrench wand can't do it, because the menders do it almost, but hey it'd be cool. Besides, it's not the knight doing the magic, it's the staff that was rigged to do it. So I guess it'd be okay.

how about wrench ward can be

how about wrench ward can be upgraded to 3* which have a fun charge attack. it will take you like 3~4 second to charge , and then after that , if you hold the charge bit longer , it will change color ( yellow -> red -> purple -> blue -> teal -> green -> black) ( it will take like 1.5 sec to change the color ).

Yellow : will cause 1 line of earth split ( range 4) that cause stun to enemies that standing on

Red : like flame thrower , shoot out 1 line of fire ( deal elemental + chance to inflict minor fire )

Purple : will cast one purple slash infront of you ( range 1.5) ( similar to faust's 2nd slash , that have % to inflict minor curse )

Blue : cast 3 block of ice horizontally and is breakable in 1 attack

Teal : release a nova ( range 5) that deal elemental damage + % minor shock

Green : release spirits that will aim randomly enemies and cause minor poison ( range 6 )

Black : put you to sleep for x seconds ( too bad , who told you hold it too long )
