Its damage is strongly reduced by armour.}}<br /> <br /> A &#039;&#039;&#039;wand of scattershot&#039;&#039;&#039; fires a volley of metal fragments in a range 5 cone. The damage for each projectile is 9d1 to 9d5 and the number of projectiles ranges from 4 to 14; damage and quantity of projectiles improve with [[evocations]] skill.<br /> <br /> ==Strategy==<br /> *Most of the fragments will hit the targeted space, but there is a certain amount of spread which increases as you train evocations. If you&#039;re trying to primarily target a single creature, fire at them when they&#039;re closer (preferably melee range) to improve your odds of hitting them.<br /> *Because damage reduction from AC is calculated for each projectile separately, wands of scattershot work best against creatures with low [[AC]] and are generally ineffective against high-AC targets. Good targets include [[list of ogres|ogres]], [[list of jellies|jellies]], or [[hydra]]s. If you&#039;re fighting anything wearing armour, you may wish to use a different wand.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> *Wands of scattershot were removed in [[0.25]], replaced by the [[tin of tremorstones]].<br /> *Prior to [[0.24]], monsters couldn&#039;t use this wand.<br /> *Wands of scattershot were added in [[0.20]], replacing [[iron rod]]s.<br /> <br /> {{wands}}</div>
