Thaumonomicon Entry[edit]

"Since the discovery of wands you have been thinking of alternating the way vis channels through the wand. The wand on it's own has a very basic system of vis chanelling - it uses the Vis from the core and exports it into the world using the caps. Well, that makes the wand a universal device it can use vis offensively, defensively and for crafts. But it both lacks the power for offensive usage and the efficiency for crafts. Sure there are staffs and scepters. The scepters are fine, but you think that the staffs can be made... differently.

By completely removing the core from the construction, adding some mundane parts to hold it all together and making a 'zone of potency' with the caps you have discovered the Bracelets. They are your alternative to the staffs. Due to their construction they do not come in thousands of variants - there are some though. You are also sure, that you can't combine different caps to create a bracelet - it will be unstable and will not work. Only the regular caps discovered by thaumaturges can be used to create the bracelets too... The bracelet works just as your regular wand would - it can drain vis from nodes, it can be charged in a wand recharging pedestal, it can harvest the aspect orbs from mobs.

The bracelets also work with foci - it is what they were made for. However since the bracelet has no core it is very limited in the amount of vis it can store - the most basic one - the iron can only store 10! Due to the bracelets having no core thay can't be used for crafts. However what they shine at is the usage of foci. First of all they have an amazing vis discount for doing so. Any foci in the bracelet will have it's cooldown greatly reduced. The foci are also MUCH faster and potent than in wands. Lastly since the bracelets are extremely small they also will get affected by the invisibility potion if their carrier is."
