Are Item ID wands gone?

Good morning fellow players!

Sorry if this has been said already, but i noticed that since the inclusion of faction wands, no item ID wands are dropping as loot.

is this just a coincidence or are item ID wands officially gone?

I still have some in my house, but soon they will be out of charges, will i have to create a toon just for this?

I dropped Magery for Item ID, I saved tons of ID wands that way.

right... thanks for the info

i don't understand why not at least keep them along with the faction wands

thats an idea Peav =]

But i like to have some magic tricks on my dexxer, mostly magic reflection but also stupid things like create food and night sight (i like the nostalgia feel of dark rooms and daylight)

guess ill have to make a grandmaster merchant, and weapons master while i'm at it lol

I'm sorry but I'm calling BS on item ID wands dropping right now unless the rate is something like 1/1000

Ain't no way. Just ain't no way

If I had to venture a guess I say it works something like this:

Item Drop: Base Item (wand) -> Wand Type (random)

All wands used to be ID because it was randomly pulling from a pool of one; now there are many types so it randomly pulls from all types available.

@Tahuk good to know I'm not the only one chugging nightsight pots. haha :)

Ya I'm at over 100 no id. My guess is something is broken and the very rare one we are seeing are from mobs that have looted them from players.

Could very well be.

All I know is that I'm carving a pumpkin tonight/tomorrow and buying the big boy with the Donos...I'm down to like three old ID wands.

Be a fool not to.

Night sight until the end!

I love the small details in this old game, in the masquerade event party i discovered your toon can die of overdose if it drinks too much wine. True story! Thankfully shane added that invulnerability code for all participants.

After all the years i'm still learning A LOT.

Well, on topic, in the beginning i was under the same impression as you did about the looting system, but it also makes sense that monsters are looting ID wands from dead players. Hope we can get some light in this regard.

I used to carry a wand with every toon, but now all the remaining ones are stored in my house.
 
I just got a 66 charge ID wand from a Lich Lord.

Feel free to PM me if anyone is interested in it.
I was very suprised as this is about the 20th or so wand I've collected so far and the first ID.

And look at all the people saying I was fucking stupid for saying ID wands were going to be rare soon. Shit on your faces.
