I like Ssyn's Staff. At first it was because it was the most accessible Channeling staff available to me, but I soon discovered that it was animated, too.

I prefer Podaltur's Fury, a wand, with an appropriate focus. Ritualist weapons are often pointless though, since we end up carting around ashes.

having 2 wands each with 20% chance of half recharge is not equal to 40% but I can't tell you why. I forgot my probability.

It's like saying if a winning ticket has 20% chance of winning and you buy 5 tickets you'll win 100%.

Someone explain this pls lol

Skill recharge reduction is capped at 50% from multiple sources, so two 20% HSR simply result in a 36% chance to HSR (if both modifiers kick in, you still only get halved skill recharge so chance to HSR = 32% + 4% = 36%).
But wait, the Golden Boar Scepter is animated? I never knew that (and the wiki didn't mention it, either). I'll have to look into it, since there aren't too many good lookin' channeling wands available. I'm actually trying to get either a Podaltur's Fury or a Wayward Wand soon, since the other wands are a bit suspect in one way or another. I had two Kayin's Focus's drop in a row, so I was destined to be a wand-based channeler.

However, my opinion would change if [skill]Mighty was Vorizun[/skill] was in some other attribute besides communing.

My bad, I should have posted 2x20HSR to make it clear. I realize it doesn't equal to 40% total but its still better chance than 20HSR from staff.

Mossbeard's Wand.

It's different.
It was the first green rit wand my Rit received.
It helps recharge [skill]Attuned Was Songkai[/skill] and [skill]Spirit's Strength[/skill] (when the inevitable double strip happens) a little faster.
Besides the green goes well with my armor.

Cheers,
TB

HRT on a Attuned was Songkai means you can recast it without dropping is what i'm assuming you mean..if so you'd get a maximum of 2 in a row, and you use Spirits Strength with a wand ? :S

[skill]Spirit's Strength[/skill] covered by Dwarven Stability using [skill]Conjure Lightning[/skill] and Drunken Master while swigging Aged Dwarven Ale?!?

This must be tested.

Maybe not exactly animated but the flashy things are floating around it and the purple crystal is spinning around.

Correct. I'd prefer to have a chance at being close to 90 continuous seconds of it than wait for the refresh.

Sure, doesn't everyone?

I usually use a bow once Spirit's Strength is cast, but who cares. Everyone uses different weapons and builds.

I use kaolin wand, vengeance seeker, quansong's focus (love it XD) and mallyx's creation the most, with a forgotten staff for restoraton and a collectors channeling staff atm.

the vengeance, kaolin and quansong's are by far my favourite.

oh, also got a bogroot staff yestoday but i'll most likely just sell that.
