#1 Physical / Lightning Wand for Mirroring

I am level 93 shadow and I used to play as wander (now I am CI dagger).
In my opinion, there is not such thing as pure physical wander. You will always want to add some ele dps (from auras, items), because it scales nicely and in the end you will end up with better dps than with pure phy.
Another thing - there is an option whether to go slower weapon with higher dmg or faster weapon with lower dmg. With pure physical builds either of the options can be good but for hybrid build, always is better to go with faster weapon because weapon attack speed is what drives ALL your dmgs (weapon dmg and elemental dmgs from auras, items..) and this scales very nice. So conclusion is that imbued wand is the best option for wander.
Next question is whether you should try to roll hybrid physical mod instead of lightning dmg. If we assume that physical and elemental dmg multipliers will be around even (dmg increase from passive nodes, skill gems and items), it is only a question if the added dmg from hybrid phy mod is higher or lower than lightning dmg mode. This can be easily calculated but I think phy dmg increase from hybrid mod would not come close to ligthning dmg mod.

These are the reasons why I think your wand is the way to go. There is similar wand created by axn1314 but with lower rolls (I was just thinking when someone will create similar wand with better mods).
In my opinion just divine it as close to max as you can and it will be perfect. I may even switch back to wander again :)



i think u have some mistakes here:
- for a wander, higher phys makes u also get higher elamental than u can get with elemental wand - why u ask? cause if u use add fire dmg + hatred aura, u gain huge amount of elemental (more than u can get from pure wand elemental on gear), also notice the on the upper side of tree, u have 3 nodes that each give u 10% of phys convert to fire/lightning/cold
so in total, u can (and should) get 39% (add fire) + 36% hatred (add cold) + 30% from nodes = 105% off phys convert to elemental....
pretty much own any +1-110 lightning dmg....
my builds:
- COLB (Cast On Last Breath) first ever build: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1632595
- the Flash: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1367774
- the oro's bridle build: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1409823
Depends. While I would definitely go for added fire dmg and hatred aura, I wouldn't go up for passive nodes you mentioned. Rather I would go to templar and take all ele and ES nodes.

Nothing compares to anger and wrath auras at level 24 (empower+Alpha) with all aura buffs+inner force+as much ele dmg increase as can.

I bet I can get higher dps going that route than you going up for phy to ele nodes.

EDIT: Converted damage works like this with hybrid builds: % physical is added as elemental and than that elemental is further increased by % ele dmg increase modifiers. That means if you have more mods that incresse ele dmg you can ger higher dmg even though you have lower phy wand..

I also divined phy/lighitng wand as well, so it have top IAS and 37% crit and slightly better DPS overall.

I'd prefer a mixed physical/lightning wand over a pure physical one any day. Nice craft, man!
