> There are three primary spells in wands - aura, shield, barrier. There are general wands in the same place all the time (when they aren't maxed out) that are not sleek wands. <br>> <br>> For aura, barrier, and shield there is a sleek wand - sleek amber, sleek black, sleek sienna. For these there are a multitude of locations but each character gets a different set of locations. So while one might be able to get a sleek black wand in location x and never find anything in location y, your character finds a sleek black wand in location y and location x is always empty. This also means that just because your mage has guaranteed barrier that your next mage might come up empty. <br>> <br>> <br>> <br>
