Re: need to know how to get holy wand

Are you actually wielding it? The only thing I know is that it occasionally pops up as a guild point item for Alchemy and you don't really want to make one because its primary ingredient, the Mythic wand, is made of things that no one would ever make a wand out of and by making it into a Holy Wand, you end up with an item that improves your Divine Magic Skill by 4 which I don't think is better than a Light Staff.

As for how you obtain one, Mhurron has the answer, but I think that what I want to know isn't on wiki...

Why would you want one?

I have to second this. A Light Staff has the hidden effect of providing +10 Magic Accuracy and +10 Magic Attack to any spell aligned with the Light element. A Holy Wand, on the other hand, provides +4 Divine Magic Skill, roughly equal to +8 Magic Accuracy on Divine Magic spells, and since all Divine Magic is aligned with the Light element, the light staff is much better in all situations.

Re: need to know how to get holy wand

It doesn't quite matter why they want it, they're just asking how to get it.

It takes level 81 Alchemy, a Light Crystal, a mythic wand, and a flask of holy water.

It gives guild points, and can be used in a recipe to make an enlight wand. Whee.

Re: need to know how to get holy wand

Actually better than +4 Divine Magic skill from that wand is the Water Staff, which is +10 Divine Magic skill. If you really wanted it for that purpose.

Of course wands =/= staves so idk.

Actually, there's nothing amazing about that, I suppose.
