Revision 3

Wands are the primary weapon type in KYORA. Unlike conventional melee or ranged weapons, wands in KYORA are described as physics-altering and matter-manipulating, implying that their effects interact with the game's terrain and physical systems. Crafting and upgrading wands is a core part of progression.

Crafting Wands

Wands are crafted using resources gathered from the environment and from boss encounters. As players explore new Biomes, they gain access to materials that allow them to craft more powerful or specialized wands. The crafting system for wands is part of the broader tiered progression structure, where new options open up as players advance.

Wands in Multiplayer

Wand abilities can be combined between players in co-op sessions. The developers have highlighted this as a key incentive for playing with others, describing how different wand types create fun synergies when used together. Up to eight players can participate, each contributing different wand abilities to a coordinated group.

Wands and Bosses

Wands are the main tool for combating the Heralds, the powerful boss creatures that control each biome. Boss encounters are designed to test preparation, reflexes, and strategy. Bringing a well-crafted wand suited to a biome's conditions is part of the preparation encouraged by the game's progression design.

Specific wand names, types, and elemental properties have not been confirmed in developer communications as of the time of writing.
