Wand combo suggestion
Hi everyone,
I'm new into Noita and addicted to it however I find it hard to build a good wand.
Therefore I'm seeking guidance on building a better wand , any good combo suggestion?

The best, simplest combo is:
Chainsaw -> Double Cast -> Spark Bolt, or any similar projectile spell.
The magic behind it is that, after activating Chainsaw, it "wraps" by casting two spells at the same time, those being Chainsaw and Spark Bolt, and Chainsaw increases the rate of fire of wands.

Another simple one is:
Spark Bolt with trigger -> Dropper Bolt / Magic Missile / Triplicate Bolt basically, anything that travels too slow or is too dangerous to use in immediate range.

You can also do:
Spark Bolt with trigger -> Heavy Shot -> any of the above. Heavy Shot makes spells very powerful, though incredibly short-ranged, so a trigger spell brings the hurt a lot closer.

Concentrated Spell -> Triplicate Bolt. Condenses all three shots into one, a modifier could help with this.

I'm no expert -- but there are quite a few videos on Wand-building.
Have a good day, happy Noiting. :predictable_roui:

trigger sparkbolt -> vertical barrier on a no shuffle wand ;)

Kinda depends on which spells you get I guess, you'll have to get a mod that can spawn in all the spells in the game and test it out.. It was the only way for me to learn fast.

I have 1k hours in the game and it still feels like I can make overpowered spells, but i'm not a master of damage, just a jack of all trades. I was probably the first person to use the dormant crystal with trigger and teleport bolt to teleport back into the temple of the mountain whenever I wanted... and that's just the beginning of my shenanigans.

If you are looking for something more straightforward though, do what everybody else is mentioning with the Chainsaws and whatnot, but if you can't find any of those things you will just have to practice the most important thing: A safe improvisation.

Take Glowing Lance for example, i've used that spell with little to no modifiers all the way down to the lowest Temple of the Mountain. It's very powerful with speed/fire rate, and if you set it up right you can still hit the body swap wizards without dying. It's all about moderating the power, and only using it where you can. This knowledge only came after dying from it a dozen times because the power of the spell still made it worth using until other spells came along.

So I guess the moral of the story is to take safe risks. Don't blow yourself up, but don't be afraid of every spell in the game either.

I discovered homing saw blades earlier, that's a winner.
Luminous drill (on the right wand) is arguably the only spell you really need

Well, especially for new players I´d be bloody careful with those sawblades. Yes, I love them aswell and they´re fun, but the catch is that they can hurt your character aswell. Wilte it is fine on the normal sawblades, the gigant ones... once you shoot then, they will fly in that targeted direction for a bit... and if they hit nothing, they decide to home you and suddenly you have to run from your own projectiles which in 75% of cases straight up 100-0 you with one hit. If you can live with that... go for it.

^ you're right, I probably should've pointed that out : ]

That's why you get the Perks that push/slow projectiles away from you, then you can use all the dangerous blades you want, even the ones that want to turn around and murder you.

i like ping pong path+luminous drill, digs and kills good and scales well with modifiers because they shoot super fast on the right wand

for something more traditional i always liked homing bubble spark on a machinegun wand, they can dig through basic materials so you create tunnels with them to enemies if you just hold down the trigger

bouncing bolt + water trail

I suggest checking out the noita community on twitch and youtube. That's how I've unlocked pretty much everything I have. It's far too large a game to figure out on your own!

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I appreciate all of your comment <3
update: After countless time of dying and even to my own wand while im experimenting those combo ... I have finally 'win' one Noita game with a teleporting cast of giant firebolt so i guess that kinda worked out lol
