Why have you made wands unusable?

Question Title: Why have you made wands unusable?
Category: Items
Question: Why have you made wands unusable? It takes 5 second for it to cast every time you use it because of the long drawn out and slow animation. It looks neat but is impractical and makes the wand unusable in a combat situation. Only comparable weapon would be swinging a lugian axe with leaden weapon 6 and slowness 6 cast on the wielder. Will you be fixing this?

Answer: To end the phenomenon of the unbalancing "machine gun" wands.

For high level spells, casting from a wand is still faster than casting from your spellbook.
