Wands
Wands are Ranged Weapons that fire magical homing projectiles. You do not need one to cast spells, but there is strong synergy between Wands and Wizardry. You can block with wands, but you can’t have anything in your offhand and it costs a ton of Stamina, so it’s pointless.
There are a total of 4 Unique Wands in Avowed, each corresponding do a different element. You’ll find one in Dawnshore, Emerald Stair, Shatterscarp, and Galawain’s Tusks.
Grimoires
Grimoires (AKA spellbooks) are Off-Hand Items that allow you to cast 4 different Wizard Abilities and reduces the number of Ability Points required to get their Rank 3 buffs by 1. They also significantly reduce the Cooldown and Essence Cost of activating abilities, though you can’t use them to block.
Unlike other types of Unique Weapons, Unique Grimoires are not strictly better than their regular counterparts beyond the fact that they can be upgraded to Legendary Quality. Instead, Unique Grimoires primarily offer more creative combinations of spells, allowing for additional playstyles.
There are 6 Unique Grimoires in Avowed, including 2 in Dawnshore, 2 in Emerald Stair, 1 in Shatterscarp, and 1 in Galawain’s Tusks.
