Arcane Orb fills your Main slot. Projectile main ability of the spirit school. Base damage 26. Cast 10 ticks. Fires 1 projectile at speed 8 over 12 units, piercing 6.
You get it by equipping 16 bases across 6 lines: Duskhollow Wand, Orbweaver Wand, Pearlmoon Wand, Plaguecradle Wand and Soulmirror Wand and 1 more.
The draft can bend it 7 ways — Echo, Reach, Multiplicity, Area, Force, Duration and Critical — and cards that ask for projectile, pierce, area, critical and on_hit will find it.
Between rooms it can be offered 199 cards: 70 written for it specifically, plus the 129 that any ability can take. Those cards can put Shock, Venom and Distortion on it, and attune it to Storm, Poison and Void.
3 Uniques are built on gear that hands it to you: The Patient Moon, The Hollow Key and The Spider King's Cradle.
