Elven Wand

The Elven Wand is the basic ranged weapon in Heretic. It uses Wand Crystals to fire weak hitscan shots at a medium rate, similar to Doom's pistol. When firing in quick succession, the first shot is always perfectly accurate. When enhanced by a Tome of Power, it fires a spread of hitscan shots as well as a pair of projectile fireballs. This weapon is always effective on ghosts. Maximum capacity is 100 shots, or 200 with the Bag of Holding.
