Unique items too poor?

I get the uniques in PoE have certain 'themes' and can each have more than one of those themes.

1) Low lvl twink item.
2) Build enabling.
3) Just pure badass, while still being possible to be outdone by a godly rare.
4) Passive keystone granting.
5) Give and take (a good bonus with a balancing negative).
6) Having an affix not found on a rare of that stot.

So all the items do have a use, even if that use is nothing more than only being a twink item for a few lvls early on.

But, try as I may, I can't find a use for


Ok it carries blind, but why would anyone use such a terrible wand for blind when if you so wanted blind you could link the gem to the skill in a 4+ link instead of having it free in the 3 link which otherwise limits your supports any way?

The wand is no good for an ele PS build, is no good for a phys PS build (I must vendor far better ele and phys wands daily), the spell damage is easily outdone again by vended wands.

Am I missing something?



Ever heard about dual wand using witches who concentrate on fighting with wands+power siphon?

Yes, I use PS myself in an ele build.

But that doesn't explain the usefulness of this wand.

Or more to the point, the usefulness of this wand over thousands of trashed wands per day.
Please explain to me, as I'm not seeing it. I'd really like to see it.
Casually casual.
