And thank god for that, shield charge with a wand might be the dumbest thing I've ever heard of.

You would use shield charge to gain fortification not for dps. Fortify requires a melee attack / skill to proc it. https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Fortify_Support

What build are you doing?

I was using Enki's Arc Witch and was using Wands as it had % to spell damage on the implicit.

But then I got to his guide about shield charge and then it was not working.
Found out later that build moves over to Scepters at this point to use Shield Charge, Fortify, Faster Attacks.

But his guide has changed for 3.5 and we use sceptres and daggers now and go to Leap Slam for sceptres and whirling blades for daggers.

Hi Corrison,

Wand + Shields and Shield Charge has never been something that works. Shield charge requires a melee weapon, or being unarmed.

Equipping a wand in one hand, and a dagger in the other isn't supported either.

So why unarmed work?
Wands make your hand lighter that the melee hit becomes a feather hit?
Removing the Melee hit wouldn't be a nice thing to do?
Wander it is an attack in the end... If i wanna be fast I'm forced to use quicksilver flask only ... and LW/Flamedash isnt good for that purpose ...

Just saying.. don't get me wrong here... but makes no sense in logical terms...
