A general name for the types of [[wand]] which deal damage directly (often duplicating the effect of a similar [[spell]]); [[wand of fire]], [[wand of cold]], [[wand of lightning]], [[wand of magic missile]], and [[wand of striking]]. Although most of these types of wands have uses unrelated to their uses in attacking opponents directly, they all share that purpose and work much the same way when used for that purpose, and so are often grouped together in strategy advice. The [[fire horn]] and [[frost horn]], while not being wands, also have similar uses to attack wands, and can be substituted for them in strategies that require them.
