In classic, is there any stat’s that wand’s benefit from? Like int for more crit chance, spell power for more damage per cast. That kind of thing?
no, they are unique in that no stats affect wand damage
there are talents that do it though
Agility affects crit chance, but that’s all. No other stat affects wands.
There is no stat that increases wand damage. But the crit chance is increased with your range crit chance. So technically agility increases wand damage
Anything that increases a school of damage by X, if your wand is that school of damage it will benefit from it.

It doesn’t. Wands damage is increased by talents. Nothing else.
Priest’s talents Darkness and Shadowweaving will both increase your wand’s damage granted the wand does Shadow damage. This is factually correct.
those are talents
+shadow dmg items will not work
Yeah I guess my comment was confusing. I wasn’t referring to gear, but talents and I’m guessing debuffs like Improved Scorch.
Talent that increase wand damage.
Talents that increase elemental damage as long as the wand is the same type of elemental damage
Shadow weaving and improved scorch come to mind
The crit chance from agility DOES affect wands. This was already tested however it wasn’t a huge increase in damage. Better to just go after wand talents like said above.
I think there are only 2 talents that increase wand damage. Mage in the Arcane Tree, and Priest in the Discipline tree. Each only increase it by maybe 25%?
