How to use luminous drill?

[Icedkocha]

Just wondering because every time I find a wand with it, the spell lasts for maybe half a second and uses up all the mana. Doesn't seem like a good alternative to chainsaw but maybe I just don't know how to set it up

[Salty Waffles]

I've wondered the same thing. For a "drill" it just seems to be pretty useless in that role, taking FOREVER to actually make a path through just about anything.

yeah, its only good for killing enemies through walls but in any other way its only good with the right perks which i dont even remember because i thought it was just good how it was

You need a spell modifier that reduces mana consumption by 50. Then you can drill whatever you wish.
If you are feeling fancy, add a couple of those, as well as increased duration and increased speed for ultimate death ray experience.

If only there was an Increase Range spell...

you can use multiple Luminous Drill with Timer/Trigger to extend the range

also the Luminous Drill is very useful, because it's pretty much the only spell which can go through anything incluiding brickwork and extremly dense rock with unlimited uses

Yeah, it takes a while to get through anything, but gets past anything. Not good if you need to get anywhere in a hurry though. (I think it mines everything, it cuts through brickwork, and steel like butter, but not sure about EDR)

it's actually a really really good weapon, had a wand that allowed for 3 rapid fire luminious drills, added some +crit spell and the spell that makes it explode when it contacts the environment, couldn't be stopped since everything instantly died, even the final boss couldn't handle it

I discoverd it can be really op if you couple a spell on the end of a chain of them, say lighting or an explosive, and it will go straight through a wall and blow up on the other side (not affecting player at all if it's metal) - it's good for blowing up explosives in rooms and stuff

The only problem i've found is taht it sometimes doesn't consistently go through things and will blow up in your face - also it will cut explosives in half on it's own and not affect them, that's why it needs explosives or lighting, lightning is the best in my opinion, it extends the range and you almost never take damage from the lightning itself

Its a very nice meele weapon, I use it whenever I get the oppurtunity and good passive spells.

I see this thread is full of filthy plebians with tiny craniums who can't answer your question, OP. So allow me, the big brained suave master that I am, to enlighten you:

Just find a wand with good recharge rate. The one that you have at the beginning with the bomb would go. I managed to dig up to "scrooge room" using that.

I also like to put it on my teleport staff to help me cut through and tp through thin walls
