Can we get a movement skill for double wand

Problem:

There is no movement skill for double wand builds. You are forced into using a shield and Shield Charge if you are playing some wand build.

Solution:

Give us some movement skill for double wand?

At least you can shield charge with a wand these days, but it still feels pretty bad that you just can't play double wand builds, because there is no movement skill for it.

Like you want a dedicated WAND movement skill?

Flame Dash and Lightning Warp work for wand builds.

Two wands transform into a broom and broom goes brrrrr....

Have you tried doing a difficult boss fight without Shield Charge or Leap Slam?
It's mandatory to have either of them with Flame Dash together right now.

Dedicating a full 4L for Lightning Warp is just not feasible on most builds and even if you could, if your build has skill effect duration it actively works against it.

It's not only bosses though, if you want to go fast in this game you need Shield Charge or Leap Slam to move around. Flame Dash / Smoke Mine worked before, but they nerfed the combo to the ground.

Err... I never do boss fights with Shield Charge or Leap Slam. Those are horrible movement skills to be doing difficult boss fights with. I've done all bosses including all the ubers.

I think Whirling Blades should allow wands. Maybe rename the skill...

What are you talking about, they are incredibly useful if you need to reposition in the fight. Or have to quickly do mechanics that require you to move, like Maven Memory game or Eater of Worlds mechanics where you have to activate the orbs. The cooldown of FlameDash is just too long, you quickly run of charges.
Basically every HC player uses them, just watch the Gauntlet replays, 90% of them will be fighting with either of those movement skills.

Ye smth. like that. Doesn't fit thematically, but it could be reworked or smth. like that could be added for dual wielded weapons that just have no options right now.

It would only work on marauders and it would transform them into magical girls on use. "Magical girl" grants increased spell crit change and spell damage on account of enemies standing still gawking at you, but you would take 50% more dmg from tentacles wielding mobs.

Flame Dash is an **incredible** movement skill

its my FIRST CHOICE for movement. including on boss fights.

the problem might be YOU.

like, even my recent RF builds with scepter+shield, who can choose leap slam, shield charge, or FD, all take FD first.
