Cloud Wand

A Cloud Wand is a Staff-class Artifact weapon found in Golden Sun: The Lost Age.

Basic Description
A Cloud Wand increases the wielder's base Attack by 98 points. They can be sold for 5250 coins and subsequently re-bought for 7000 coins.

A Cloud Wand is obtained by bringing a Tear Stone forgeable item to Sunshine the blacksmith in Yallam, where he will randomly forge it into either that or several other items. The player will then have to buy it from him. Being a Staff, it can be equipped by Ivan, Mia, Jenna, and Sheba. Its Unleash effect is Stun Cloud, which is effectively a standard physical attack that adds 31 damage points and then modifies the resulting damage based on the user's Mercury Power and the target's Mercury Resistance. It may also inflict Stun on the target. Stun Cloud visually resembles the user attacking the target and a large light-blue smog laced with electricity being emitted on impact.

Analysis
Though stronger than most other weapons available to the female Adepts at this point in the game, weapons tend to become obsolete much more quickly than other kinds of equipment in The Lost Age, so the long-term benefits of acquiring a Cloud Wand are typically inferior to the more long-lasting benefits the other items forged from a Tear Stone can provide.
