Do you think people wanna spend 600pp or more every time they PVP? The people that actively PVP does 5-10+ fights an hour. Even if you farm PP and recharge items on a regular basis you wouldn't use any of them in more then 1% of your fights.

600pp is already a lot for a Golem Wand imo and the other shit is even more expensive. It definitely don't need to be changed. Recharge items are great for a PVP server, they add a new dimension to the game and they also help the weaker classes have a chance vs superior classes.

People that think it's gonna be a spam fest are retarded and delusional. You'll barely notice that clickers exist on an active PVP server.
I think you are the retarded and delusional one. Golem Wands were always used in classic because there were not 1000 insta click buffs like there were later in EQ and stripping buffs was important.

Sure, they aren't used in every fight, but they are always charged and ready to go.

As soon as the rash of insta click buffs started to emerge, it made the Golem wand less valuable. However, when we have BUFFED resists that reach around 120... the Golem wands become that much better to strip the buffs to ensure spells land and to remove other buffs such as DSs, Levi, etc.

Golem Wands are an OP item in EQ PvP until the game progressed into Velious and Resists on Items because more prominent. There was a reason they were the most camped item and why people always had 'the clean merchant' to buy/sell them to.

The problem is not that the Golem Wand exists, its that its insanely cheap and easy to get additional charges without the risk and time invested to camp it again.
