Also worth mentioning are the Soulsinger’s Soulsword (dropped by Ivan Soulsinger in the Drake Hatchery) and Winged Deliverance (dropped in Mirror Lake), both of which are beautiful swords used by 5 overlords each.Īrena Ticket Wands Staff of Flashing Blades It seems the wand’s rough look and color scheme pleases some people. This surprised me, as I wouldn’t have thought it would have been that popular to stitch. Another 6 wizards used Malistaire’s wands. A total of 6 wizards used this wand, which is not a bad amount, if you think how short of a time that boss has been around. Other popular dropped wands include the Lambent’s Cane of Radiance, which you can get from Lambent Fire behind a skeleton key in the Crystal Caves (AV). I love these wands and have multiple wizards sporting one. I found this handy guide with pictures of all the Mooshu wands. Of these wands, Oyotomi’s Jade Blade and Plague Oni’s Sapphire Blade were the most popular. Both of these are very sparkly and have an unusual shape.Īnother type of dropped wand, however, is also pretty popular: 19 wizards chose to stitch a Mooshu wand. If we’re looking at the popularity of a single dropped wand, the two top contestants are the Avalanche’s Legendary Cutlass (12 wizards) and Redwind’s Viridian Blade (15 wizards). These wands require a bit of farming, but the consensus amongst overlords seems to be that they’re worth it. While most of them are no-trade, some can be sold in the Bazaar as well. These are wands that are dropped somewhere in the Spiral. In addition, 9 % used Arena tickets for their wand, 7 % craftedtheirs and 5 % used Crowns in the Crown Shop or at a Vendor. The four most popular kinds of wands are wands that are dropped(28 %), wands that require a code(22 %) and wands from bundles(16 %) and packs(12 %). Most popular wands: how they were acquiredīefore we get into the specifics of these wands, here’s an overview of where our overlords acquired their wands. Skullsare another popular design among 2 % of overlords, also not stitched. Axesof various kinds are popular among 3 % of the population. They leave it as is instead of stitching it to something prettier. This is interesting, because apparently the design of this wand is attractive enough to our overlords. Only 4 % of the overlords used the floating creepy winged eyeas their wand. The proud number three is what you’ve been expecting all along, I bet: 61 wizards (16 %) carried a flute.Īfter that, the amount of people carrying one shape of wand starts to dwindle. Staffsare not far behind: 31 % of overlords (119 wizards) used some kind of a staff as a wand.
Of all the shapes of wands, swordsare still the most popular, with 37 % of overlords (which means 142 wizards) being of the sword variety. Isn’t it lovely that we have such variation? In addition, we also have flutes, skulls, floating eyes, floating books, guitars, crystals and that weird ball thing from Barkingham. First of all we have swords, staffs, axes, hammers and bows – the fairly normal sort of weapons. Most popular wands: shape Trophy of the Raucous Court People are superficial! Consequently many people put a lot of thought into their fashion choices in the Arena. I’ve had so many people expressing a dislike for my Ice Wizard’s hair. This can be aimed at gear options, but just as easily at the look someone chooses for themselves.
I’m not sure whether you’ll agree, but I’d say people in the Arena are a little bit judgemental at times. I briefly considered the Wu Commons, but dismissed that idea for obvious reasons. There aren’t many places where you’ll run across an equally fashion-conscious bunch of people. In addition, I feel the Arena is a very good place to collect data for a fashion article. For that article I specifically needed overlords, so it made sense to use the same wizards for this article as well. First and foremost, I was actually collecting data for a different article that will take a little longer to write.
Why overlords and not just anyone I ran into? I got bored at that point, okay? It happens. Yes I know 389 is a weird number to end up with. Let’s take a look at what wands our overlords use!įor this guide, I collected pictures of 389 overlords with their wands. Can you guess which wand designs are the most popular wand stitches? Some of them are pretty obvious if you’ve spent any time in the Arena! There might be a few surprises though. We have many awesome wand designs in Wizard101.
