 +====== Wand of Poison ======
  
 +{{ rpd:images:item_WandOfPoison.png|Wand of Poison }}
 +
 +The **Wand of Poison** is a magical wand in Remixed Dungeon that inflicts the [[rpd:poison_buff|Poison]] status effect on targeted enemies.
 +
 +==== Stats ====
 +  * **Charges:** 2 (base) + 1 per upgrade level (max 9 charges)
 +  * **Recharge:** Gradual recharge during gameplay when below maximum charges
 +  * **Effect Duration:** 5 + effective level turns (affected by target's poison resistance)
 +
 +==== Description ====
 +The Wand of Poison releases a bolt of toxic energy that poisons its target. When used against an enemy, it inflicts the poison status effect causing damage over time. The poison will last for 5 + the wand's effective level turns, with the duration affected by the target's resistance (e.g., from [[rpd:ring_of_elements_item|Ring of Elements]]).
 +
 +==== Mechanics ====
 +  * **Effect:** Applies the Poison status effect for (5 + effective level) turns
 +  * **Target:** Single target in line of sight
 +  * **Range:** Limited by Ballistica distance calculation
 +  * **Effectiveness:** Duration affected by target's poison resistance (from Ring of Elements, etc.)
 +  * **Damage:** Poison damage is (time remaining / 3) + 1 per turn
 +  * **Recharge:** Recharges gradually during gameplay when below maximum charges
 +
 +==== Strategy ====
 +  * Excellent for dealing sustained damage without direct engagement
 +  * Particularly effective against enemies that don't kill you immediately, allowing the poison to work
 +  * Good against groups when enemies are adjacent to each other (poison may spread)
 +  * Less effective against poison-immune creatures or undead
 +  * Use to soften powerful enemies before direct combat
 +  * Effective against high-HP enemies that take time to defeat
 +
 +==== Availability ====
 +  * Found in stores and occasionally as dungeon loot
 +  * Can be used by the [[rpd:wandmaker_npc|Wandmaker]] NPC to create upgraded versions
 +  * Relatively common wand type
