Gear
Only weapons and sets we can match to an item in the 1.0 game files. Tiers come from those files; a “likely match” agrees on 4–5 of 5 perk slots rather than all of them.
Darya's StaffprimaryStavesT1likely matchYour ice weapon until the ice wand: a loot staff the 1.0 files let roll from item level 1 to 55. Load ice spells — Iceman raises their damage, Quick Charge shortens their charge-up.
Coiling WandprimaryWandsT5Icelikely matchIce wand — it arrives at T5 in the 1.0 files (likely match), late in the game. Iceman raises its ice damage.
Reaper's WandsecondaryWandsT1–T7Shockin 1.0 filesShock wand, T1–T7, for enemies that resist ice.
