I have a lvl 46 enchantress and i am using a wand and shield... i have been considering a staff but there is a big trade off there... so i have a very important question to ask...
the damage provided by the staff or wand has anything to do with the damage done by the skills that you use? for example, if i have firestorm at lvl 5, will it do more damage if i have a staff or a wand? or is it independent?

in normal situations when lvling i find that the most useful thing to do is to cast skills and the power from the wand is not really useful since its for single target and the skills are for multiple targets.. what do you think about comment?
