Wand Art Online Wiki

Full-loot PvP sandbox MMORPG. Choose your weapon, fight for survival, and build your legacy in a world where death means losing everything.

Starter Classes

When you create a character, the Quartermaster (Grandpa) gives you a free starter kit. Choose your path wisely — each class comes with a full set of T4 gear, a weapon, and off-hand.

⚔️

Swordsman

T4 Broadsword + Plate Armor + Aegis Wand (shield). Melee brawler with high survivability. Sword abilities stack bleeds and include a powerful dash.

🏹

Archer

T4 Bow + Leather Armor + Emberstrike Wand (torch). Ranged DPS with kiting potential. Bow abilities include AoE volleys and long-range shots.

🔥

Pyromancer

T4 Fire Staff + Cloth Robe + Tempest Wand (tome). Magic DPS with devastating AoE. Fire abilities deal heavy burst damage.

❄️

Frostcaller

T4 Frost Staff + Cloth Robe + Aegis Wand (shield). Crowd control mage with slows, roots, and freezes. Excellent kiting and zone control.

Tip: The starter kit is free — once. If you die and lose your gear, you'll need to craft or buy replacements. Always keep backup sets in the Bank!

Every kit includes a T3 Traveler Bag, T3 Horse mount, and a Tier 1 gem. Mix and match any weapon with any armor type after your first kit to create your own build.

Zone Types

Every zone has a color that determines PvP rules and loot severity. The further you venture, the more dangerous — and rewarding.

Zone	PvP	On Death	Risk Level
Safe	No PvP	5% durability loss	None — towns and rest areas
Blue	No PvP	5% durability loss	Low — PvE only, good for gathering
Yellow	Flagged PvP	10% durability loss	Medium — opt-in PvP, no loot loss
Red	Full PvP	Drop bag contents, keep equipped	High — carry only what you can afford
Black	Full PvP	Drop everything	Extreme — full loot, highest rewards

Warning: In Black Zones, you lose everything you're carrying and wearing when you die. Only enter if you can afford to replace your entire set.

Cooking

Enchanting

Gear can be enchanted to boost Item Power beyond base tier. Enchantment levels shown as .1, .2, .3 after tier (e.g., T4.2 Broadsword). Higher enchantment = higher power, but more value lost on death.

Island Garden

New: Personal garden plots. Plant seeds, grow crops over real time, harvest materials for cooking — or raise mounts.

Getting Started

Visit the Island Garden building in Town or Rest Stop. Buy your island for 200 silver to unlock 4 plots. Upgrade to 8 plots for additional silver.

Seeds

Seeds drop from killing mobs. Higher-tier mobs drop rarer seeds.

Seed	Grows Into	Time	Rarity	Drop Source
🍅 Tomato Seed	Tomato (x3)	30 min	Common	Any mob (18%)
🌾 Wheat Seed	Wheat (x3)	30 min	Common	Any mob (18%)
🌿 Herb Seed	Herb (x3)	45 min	Common	Any mob (18%)
🫐 Moonberry Seed	Moonberry (x3)	2 hrs	Uncommon	T3+ mobs (8%)
🌺 Firebloom Seed	Firebloom (x3)	2 hrs	Uncommon	T3+ mobs (8%)
❄ Frostleaf Seed	Frostleaf (x3)	2 hrs	Uncommon	T3+ mobs (8%)
⚡ Stormvine Seed	Stormvine (x2)	8 hrs	Rare	T5+ (2%), Bosses (25%)
🌑 Shadowroot Seed	Shadowroot (x2)	8 hrs	Rare	T5+ (2%), Bosses (25%)
🐴 Riding Foal	T3 Horse (mount)	24 hrs	Epic	Bosses (1%)
🦄 Warhorse Foal	T5 Armored Horse	24 hrs	Legendary	Bosses (1%)

How It Works

1. Kill mobs to collect seeds (drop into your bag). 2. Visit Island Garden building. 3. Click empty plot → select seed → plant. 4. Wait for real-world growth time (even while offline). 5. Harvest when 100%. 6. Use crops at Crafting Station (Cooking tab).

Tip: Plant before logging off — crops grow while you're away. Always check what's ready when you log in!

PvP Rules

Safe & Blue — No PvP. Yellow — Opt-in with Space. No loot loss. Red & Black — Always-on. Death = loot loss.

Death & Loot

Zone	Bag	Equipped	Resources
Safe / Blue	Kept	5% durability	Kept
Yellow	Kept	10% durability	Kept
Red	Dropped	Kept	Dropped
Black	Dropped	Dropped	Dropped

Some items may be destroyed ("trashed") on death rather than dropped. Higher trash chance in Black Zones. Acts as an item sink.

Arena & Ranked

Press H to queue for 1v1 Arena. Matched against another player in an enclosed map. No loot loss — safe PvP practice.

Ranked System: Arena matches affect your competitive rank. Climb from Iron to Challenger!

Tier	Divisions	Notes
Iron	IV → I	Starting tier. Can't demote below.
Bronze	IV → I	Can't demote below.
Silver	IV → I
Gold	IV → I
Platinum	IV → I
Diamond	IV → I
Master	—	Top players. No divisions.
Grandmaster	—	Elite tier.
Challenger	—	The best of the best.

Win → gain LP. Lose → lose LP. 100 LP = promote. 0 LP + loss = demote.
