[QUOTE="jdpacheco, post: 4394470, member: 61319"] I would say that: (a) Yes, a half-elf who uses Dilettante to acquire a wizard (or warlock) power can use a wand to access the Daily power. He does not gain any *other* benefits from the wand (b) This is *not* earth shattering. If the Half-Elf wants to spend all his money on a wand to get a single power once power once per day, rather than on an item more appropriate for his class/role, let him. It's once per day, and it's something they need to invest in. Of course, I'm sure someone will come out and say "But what about Power X for a Fighter?" or something of the sort... and someone else will say "He'll never need multiclass feats!"... and I say "pshaw". They're all investments, of varying sorts. In defense of the "Rogue isn't a wand wielding class so they shouldn't be able to benefit from the power like it says they can."... Arcane Initiate: "In addition, you can use an orb, a staff, or a wand as an implement when using a wizard power or a wizard paragon path power." Pact Initiate: "In addition you can use a rod, a wand, or a pact blade..." (rest of the text is similar. Therefore, Rogues (or any class) can use wands by virtue of the Multiclass feats, whatever your ruling on the Half-Elf. [/QUOTE]
