Notes
A truly formidable end-game wand, possessing the best utility in its category. One should fall back on this wand when the situation calls for range, accuracy, and the ability to pierce through enemies.

History
In Exalt Version 1.0.0.0 (July 2020), the item was released as a drop from Oryx the Mad God 3, along with the other T14 weapons, T7 abilities, and T15 armor.

Before Exalt Version 1.1.0.0 (Sep 2020), this item dealt 110-155 damage.

Before Exalt Version 2.3.0.0 (Mar 2022), this item had a 7% XP bonus.

Trivia
This item originally had the following sprite:
Wand of Retribution (old)

Interestingly, the colors of this wand were given to the Wand of Evocation when that wand was resprited and released. The Wand of Retibution color was later changed to purple (the same as the old Wand of Evocation) to prepare for the official release of this item.

For many years, the T14 wand was an unreleased item not obtainable by players. Some wands were spawned in production by exploiters in Release 4.3 (Nov 2012), but they were deleted alongside other unreleased items.

In Patch X.16.0 (Aug 2017), the wand and projectile sprites were changed to black squares to reflect the item’s status as unreleased.

The Realm Eye says:
Stupefying that a mortal would know of such a weapon. Very well, I shall tell you what I know.
The realms of ice and flame may be beyond my vision, but I understand that they are in some way responsible for the presence of all elements in our reality.
Instead of funneling power out of some other plane, these wands form ontological energies that spontaneously transmute into a cataclysmic form of elemental magic.
