Wands vs. Staffs
pegasux
I wanted to know peoples opinions on this. What do you guys think is better? I currently carry a wand and a flame artifact but have seen staffs that are pretty badass compard to my wand.

I perfer Wands since it lets me carry something with a good engery bonus and whatever else it gives. However if I find a staff with a high Engery Bonus and nice stats I go for that, rarely have I found a good staff, no wand for me!

if you have a build that highly profits from faster recharge (spike build for example) go for a wand/offhand with recharge bonuses (yes, they do stack).
if you need extra armor, extra health, or extra long enchants, go for a staff (or a HOD sword and an offhand)

well i finally got to augury and want to start farming for some better stuff, so a staff would be much better for this correct? Thanks

Technically it would. It depends on what you use but yeah, most of the time it would. You can get longer enchantments, higher armor, higher HP.
Former Ruling
In general casting - Wand/offhand to me is for the recharge/cast time bonuses, or for super charges of energy at a great cost (wand and offhand both with 15 energy -1 regen on them).
Most people will go with the staff yeea.
