i like the Fire Pin, and Dreamers Mojo Wand :)
The wands in the Ancient Swamps are awesome. I am very glad they decided to make them a more viable weapon choice. Previously wand and bracer was something you did to gain armor and possibly stat boosts at the cost of having essentially no standard attack at all. Now, with the new wands, you will still do reduced damage compared to a comparable staff, but not to the point of being completely ineffective.
Does anyone know the proc that the Mojo wands seem capable of producing? Is it the same as the nightmare effect some darkbolt wands can have?
Anyway, the Voodoo Fire Pin is the best of the bunch IMO. It does reduced damage compared to the Mojo wands, but you get 5 M/s!!! Combined with Mamboza's robe, you get 10 M/s from just 2 items. My mage now has 14 M/s and can unleash furious AoE and keep party members healed without constantly sucking down the blue juice. Switching to a different bracer would give me 15, but at a significant loss of armor, and 14 seems to be getting the job done nicely (not that I will stop looking for ways to get more regen) :)
BTW, we should have some stats in this thread:
Mamboza's Voodoo Fire Pin (Lvl 35, 112 Int)
53-67 Dmg, 2.1 Spd, 5 M/s
Mojo Wand of the Owl (Lvl 35, 108 Int)
61-77 Dmg, 2.1 Spd, 5 Int, 2% Crit, 3 H/s
Those two are amazing, as I am sure the pink Mojo must be also, but even the more standard swamp wands are a big improvement:
Student's Darkbolt Wand (Lvl 34, 105 Int)
60-76 Dmg, 2.2 Spd, 1 Dex, 1 Int
And for comparison, here is the very best wand I was able to find in the pre-swamp era:
Lighting Wand of Mastery (Lvl 30, 94 Int)
48-64 Dmg, 2.1 Spd, 7 Int, 2 H/s
Dreamers Mojo Wand
61-77, 2.2, 7int, 3h/s, 2m/s
I also have the pin to have variety
Awesome wand :) I am still hunting for one.
Does this mean you prefer the Mojo to the Pin? If so, would you mind explaining why?Quote:

have yet to get any wand in swamps... sigh
anyone have an extra mamboza's voodoo fire pin for trade or anything..... or any pink wand for that matter??
Farming for a week and chalked up like 300 deaths and still no pink mage loot... sooooo sooooo lame and poooor pooor me.
Also, anyone know of a M/s cap any color if one exists or not??
Yep it does
I agree it's understandable to like it. It's a great wand. I guess it depends a lot on how you use your character, but when I see that trade off, the pin is the obvious choice for me.Quote:

Wands got updated! I've got the purple mojo wand and pink fire pin, so I'll post up the new stats for comparison.
Mojo Wand of the Owl
68-84 Damage, 2.2 Speed, 5 Int, 2% Crit, 3 H/s
Mamboza's Voodoo Fire Pin
60-74 Damage, 2.1 Speed, 7 Int, 2% Crit, 5 M/s
I like sparkly wands, bland wands make mr want to
kick. :)
I'm playing now hoping for a fire pin find! I agree- I love the black stars coming off my mojo wand of the owl.
