After controversy enthralled the Duels forum over changes to Wand damage to incorporate Intelligence as a factor, the Developers have now decided to change the way Wand damage is calculated. This change will have varying affects depending on your Level, and your Wand’s Tier - the breakdown is featured below:

Under Level 25: No Penalty.
Level 25: Starting here Wand damage will scale depending on both your Level and your Wand’s Tier. So if for instance you where wielding a Tier II (Grey) item, then you would receive a slight penalty.
Level 30: The penalty for wielding Tier II and Tier I Wands is increased slightly.
Level 40: The penalty for wielding Tier II and Tier I Wands is at its highest.
It is important to note that any penatly for wielding Wands, regardless of your Level, will only affect Wands in Tier II and Tier I. Meaning Tier II (Blue/Rare) Wands and above will not incur any penalty.

Remember though guys that these changes have not yet been implemented. The balance changes will be put into effect some time during Monday 7th April 2008, which gives you guys a couple of days to make provisions against these changes.
