    I should probably buy a gemstone myself. I'm relying on observing other people right now for tests. Lol.

    Any idea why the gemstone is the only animation? Maybe it's effect is more powerful than the other two?

    Extra fun :
    When mobs are in this gem wand/debuff affected state, other mages in party who don't even have a gem wand seem to also proc a mana gain (or at least get a small blue non-negative number rising out of their head) with buff or debuff skills.

    The effect makes mobs give out mana like little pez dispensers.

    This is very strange. The other wands do indeed show the same mana gain effect, except with nightmare. However, there is no combo text, visual or sound effect, or drained text. I'm wondering, if this is supposed to be an effect of all gem wands, if the fact the gemstone doesn't proc weakness might be a bug, or if possibly the proc happening with the other wands could be a bug...

    I have a question. I am still having a hard time giving up my Blizzard stick. when i solo tested some of the highest dps wands (weapon dps) against some bosses with just pure wanding, the Blizzard stick always seems to kill quicker. I do tend to pull a lot of aggro on bosses as well in the Sewers.
    Here are some screenshots. I have 55 MM helm, 55 MM chest, 55 Lowman's gemstone bracer, and 1% crit 11 damage ring.


    Would you recommend getting an MM want.
