Every spellcaster in WoW Classic should be familiar with wands, and getting one to round out your build should be a top priority of yours, especially in the all-new Season of Discovery.
When you’re out of mana, using your wand as a last resort is going to be the most popular and reliable move you can make. Not only are wands a great way to deal some extra damage when you want to conserve your resources, but they can also be a solid and reliable source of DPS in many circumstances.
Below, you’ll find a list of the five best pre-raid wands available to players in the first level band of WoW Classic’s Season Discovery, as well as the go-to, absolute best-in-slot wand you can get from the Blackfathom Deeps raid. Here are the five best wands available during phase one of the WoW Classic Season of Discovery.
Top 5 wands in WoW Classic SoD
| Wand | DPS | Attack Speed | Source |
| Cookie’s Stirring Rod | 22.31 | 1.30 | Cookie, The Deadmines |
| Consecrated Wand | 24.71 | 1.20 | Worgen in the Woods (Quest, Alliance Only) |
| Dire Wand | 20.29 | 1.70 | World Drop |
| Stingshot Wand | 22.22 | 1.80 | Arikara (Quest, Horde Only) |
| Thunderwood | 27.11 | 1.90 | World Drop |
These five wands are all acceptable and above-average options for endgame players in the new season. Since none of the very strong items you can get post-level 25 are available yet, these five wands are going to be the most-targeted options if you’re someone looking to deal as much damage as possible. My personal favorite is the Consecrated Wand because its fastest-in-the-game speed of 1.20 makes it extremely satisfying and DPS-effective in long dungeon encounters.Â
If you’re at the level where farming Blackfathom Deeps is a realistic expectation for you, you’re going to want to try and hunt down Deadlight, a wand with a DPS number of 30.00 on the nose and an extra five Shadow resistance. It drops off Gelihast.Â
