Okay, here's what you do, because I can't remember and it seems like you're being lazy:

-In each scenario folder, there will be a text file that ends in data.txt.
-Open the file, and search for "Crystal Wand"
-Repeat until you find it.

If you have the name right, then you're looking in the wrong game. Nethergate has Crystal wands, BoA does not.

However, if what you're looking for actually goes by something else, then here's a list of what you might be referring to:
Wand of Opening (Death at Chapmans)Illusory Rod (Canopy: Manufactured Womb)Morog's Scepter (Za-Khazi Run; an infinite use missile weapon)Other then that, I have no idea what you're seeking.

As far as I know, there's no Crystal Wands in any of the released scenarios. There's one scenario it might be in, though. I'll have to check.

EDIT: If you could post a screenshot of it, it would really be helpful.

That helps. Now that we know it is seriously powerful, it narrows down the search possibilities.

It's from Exodus.

Dikiyoba could have sworn that Dikiyoba checked that before. Apparently not.

I believe you're looking for item 447 in Exodus, the Crystal Wand, and if I remember rightly its damage makes even the Adlerauge pale by compairison.

The moral of this story is that grep -r is wonderfully arcane looking and useful too!
EDIT: The moral continues, to say that grep is slower that Dikiyoba's memory. Oh well.

Found it. It's in the scenario Exodus.

EDIT: Dikiyoba and Nemesis beat me to it.

Do either of you know it's general location? I've been through that scenario multiple times, and never found it.

EDIT 2: My 'O' key is very happy today.

AHA! No wonder I couldnt find it...that scenario really got my knickers in a twist cause, as Kel said, I somehow managed to kill scripts and stuff :P Ive finished it, but was avoiding it till I felt like something long and challenging again.

This is what the hints file has to say about its location:

quote:
COMBAT: Alora northeast. Vahnatai possessed. They're not undead, so Repel Spirit does you no good. Reward is CRYSTAL WAND.

Actually, I haven't played much of it yet. :P

So the moral is, opening data files and using Ctrl-F is faster than grep. Or else Dikiyoba got a head start.

Edit: Found location.

Yes, if that wasn't clear, here it is again: the Crystal Wand is in Exodus, in Fort Alora (between the Strange Cave and the Peninsula), in the northeast corner, in the tomb.

That explains why I never found the Wand. I had just switched the spokes, after taking a beating in that puzzle, and was not up to fighting them, thus losing quickly. Ever since, I've been a little reluctant to go there again.

And now I know how Tyranicus feels. Sorry, Niemand and Nemesis.

You don't need to apologize to me. It's all good, man. I just felt like correcting you, because I'm an ass****. :P
