Electric Initialiser

Electric Initialiser

An electrifying wand that was previously used to start engines and machinery in an instant. The air crackles around it, and it has an odd shape. Overcharge: This wand holds a chance to amplify its damage output. Attacks deal bonus damage up to the overcharge percentage. Multishot: Fires multiple projectiles but at reduced damage.

The Electric Initialiser is a lightning wand for a Mage who fights at range. Three of its upgrades add more lightning damage, and the others add mana leech and crit chance. Mana leech refills mana as shots land, which keeps a caster firing for longer. Overcharge can spike any of its sparks into bonus damage, and Multishot spreads a cast into several weaker sparks. Wand Master and Sting both make wand attacks hit harder over a fight. The Ancients once used this wand to start engines and machinery in an instant. The air crackles around it, and its shape is decidedly odd. It is a late-game find in the Nomad Highlands, locked in a silver chest near the Hydropower Plant. The chest needs a lockpick to open. The Alchemist also crafts Rare copies from Bones, Diamond Dust, Glass and Celestium Bars.

Damage By Level

Base damage grows with item level and with rarity. The table shows the base damage before perks and gems. Each perk adds its own bonus on top.

Level	Common	Uncommon	Rare	Epic	Legendary
1	10	11	12	16	18
10	23	26	29	38	41
20	38	42	48	62	68
30	54	59	67	86	94
40	68	75	86	110	121
50	84	92	104	134	147

Enhancements by Level

Each upgrade at the Alchemist raises a copy by one level and unlocks the next enhancement. The levels count from the copy's own level, so a level 9 copy unlocks them at levels 10 to 14. This weapon takes up to five upgrades. Every upgrade of one copy costs the same number of Runes. On a legendary copy, the fourth and fifth upgrades also take Legendary Runes. The costs are for a level 50 copy. Other copies cost more or less by level, as the second table shows.

Upgrade	Unlocks At	Enhancement	Effect	Runes	Legendary Runes	NPC
1	Level +1	Lightning Damage	Adds Lightning Damage equal to 10% of base damage	850	-	Alchemist
2	Level +2	Mana Leech	+3% Mana Leech	850	-	Alchemist
3	Level +3	Lightning Damage	Adds Lightning Damage equal to 10% of base damage	850	-	Alchemist
4	Level +4	Lightning Damage	Adds Lightning Damage equal to 10% of base damage	850	106	Alchemist
5	Level +5	Critical Strike Chance	+9% Critical Strike Chance	850	106	Alchemist
Total	-	-	-	4,250	212	Alchemist

The rune cost depends only on the copy's level. This table shows the price of one upgrade and of every upgrade the copy can take, level by level.

Level	Upgrades	Runes per Upgrade	Total Runes	Total Legendary Runes
1	5	46	230	12
10	5	130	650	32
20	5	256	1,280	64
30	5	418	2,090	104

Special Ability

Overcharge: This wand holds a chance to amplify its damage output. Attacks deal bonus damage up to the overcharge percentage. Almost every wand carries this ability.

Multishot: Fires multiple projectiles but at reduced damage. Several wands carry it, so one cast sends out a volley in which each projectile hits for less than a single shot.

Skills

These skills make wands stronger or add new moves to them.

Skill	Tree	Cost	Effect
Eternal Spark	Mage	3	Wand projectiles have a 25% chance not to consume durability.
Sting	Mage	3	Repeated wand damage is increased by 20%.
Unity	Mage	3	Damaging enemies with wands has a 24% chance to recover 4% mana.
Wand Master	Mage	3	Attacking with a wand has a 30% chance to spawn an additional wand projectile that deals 50% damage.

Lore

This wand was once used to start engines and machines in an instant. The air crackles around it, and its shape is decidedly odd. At the Hydropower Plant, the elder Eldermere left a note about an electric wand he designed, which nobody else liked. The note defends the odd shape and says the wand concentrates electricity to jump-start machines. Eldermere was the chief engineer of the Ancients and ran that power station.

Notes

Overcharge gives each shot a chance to deal bonus damage, and Multishot fires several weaker projectiles. The wand deals pure lightning damage, which hits Drak and Crabs especially hard. Its mana leech refills mana with every hit, so long fights drain the pool more slowly. The Alchemist crafts it from Bones, Diamond Dust, Glass and Celestium Bars. Crafted copies are Rare, and looted copies can roll higher.
