Probably, as the double bonuses can't be found on Collector wands, and it's not like you can just expect to get a gold fire wand with better stats on your next farm run

not sure about the Pits, but the Armory is after the Eternal Grove mission in the Kurzick territory of Cantha.

I prefer a gold Energy +5^50 or even +5 (enchanted) when using any attunements or AoR. Used in conjunction with a collectors offhand, I feel the extra energy boost is worth it.

I would have to say, that the double bonus fire wand from pits or weaponsmith would be the best. While +5 energy is nice, in reality its peanuts and i find doesnt give much of an advantage (especially when the majority of spells cost at least twice that). If you want extra energy, you're an ele you have an attribute for that lol! Combine the double bonus wand with the collector artifact and you are casting like theres no tomorrow =)

Yeah you're probably right...part of the reason why I rarely play the ele, LOL. I'm just cheesy, 92 energy looks so much better than 87.

I can hit 111, but the regen is slow as molasses... Not to mention that I do no damage with the wand.

Whoa! Though 111 energy is mighty impressive to see, is it not a tad unecessary? I'm generally at around 75 energy and i just never ever run out. Rarely get to much below half and i am a self proclaimed spammer! In PVE ele attune + air attune = casting till the cows come home =)

Too much is never enough! The problem is the regen though... with -2, I have to keep a second weapon set, and switch to it as soon as a battle is over, in order for it to regen quicker...

Both of those were random drops I've got, and I've always been curious exactly how high you could go in the mana dept. My goal was 130, but I don't think I'll ever hit it...
