Wand of Lightning

"You have successfully adapted the enchantment on an apprentice wand. It is now capable of focusing elemental energy into bolts of lightning."

The Wand of Lightning is an elemental wand added by Thaumcraft 3. It possesses the element of Air which allows the wand to cast a bolt of lightning which is capable of seeking entities near the caster's crosshair and inflicting rapid damage to them.

The Wand of Lightning is an upgrade to the Wand of the Apprentice, made by combining the wand with Air Shards. Because of this, the wand no longer possesses it's ability to draw vis from the aura and has a set amount of uses. Enchanting this wand with the Charging enchantment will allow the wand to slowly repair itself over time by drawing vis from the aura.

The "Unified Thaumic Field Theory" must be researched before the player can unlock the ability to research the Wand of Lightning.

Usage
The Wand of Lightning casts a bolt of lighting with a right-click and numerous lightning bolts when held down, each bolt of lightning casted on an entity with succession deals 3 points of damage.

When cast on a Pig, it has a chance to change it into a Zombie Pigman, similarly when cast on a Creeper, has a chance to supercharge the entity.
