Message: <blockquote data-quote="Coredump" data-source="post: 2634087" data-attributes="member: 6939">No, it is still a 50 charge wand... over the long haul.Let me see if I can explain this a bit better.If you get 10 CLW wands now, each one will provide 50 charges, for a total of 500 charges.With this new system 10 wands will provide (for example) 19, 24, 28, 30, 33, 41, 49, 59, 78, 139 charges; for a total of 500 charges.Now, you can see that most wands provide less than the 50 charges of 'normal', but a couple make up the difference. There are a couple of issues with this example however.1) If you only have 2-3 wands, it is very unlikely it will balance out to 50 each. Though there is a chance of hitting it big.2) I am not sure how many wands it would take to be fairly sure it would balance out. (5, 10, 25...??)3) The above example was based on a median of 34, that is too low for the real median. So the actual 'half-way' point will be higher. (A median of X means that 50% of the wands will run out before X charges, and 50% will run out after X charges. But regardless of median, they will always balance out at 50 charges per wand...eventually.)</blockquote>
