  What about the tilde wave cylinder?

  
  
  That is in Defeat Fomor Commander II (Elite only) if I remember right.

  I so have to get a whole bunch of those. Bye Bye Will o' wisp...oh wait...Suffix or Prefix. I need to know so I can determine if it replaces Will o' wisp or supplements.
  
  Also is the Trinity Staff really good for "intermediate magic" or is it just useful for "advanced magics" like hailstorm?

  It replace Willohwisp. I forgot what possition both enchant are, I just remember they have the same position.
  
  Would you want info on a full Mana Related Set?

  Sprout is suffix. Does Crash shot do any justice to this mission?

  Maybe with a campfire.
  They're Snow Trolls, right?
  Weak to fire?

  Only the initial shot gets the boost of Crash Shot (I think?) So that will only hit for 150% while the rest is still calculated for normal damage. Not to sure on that one though...

  Advantage of Trinity staff is that it is not a wand, therefore does not connect with your mana. you won't lose any for unequipping it. Since you're a melee/mage hybrid that could be very handy.
  
  Drawback: it is not a wand, therefore does not connect with your mana. If you meditate with it equipped, you are slowed to a walk like any other non-wand weapon.
  
  In order to use Trinity staff with intermediate magics, you have to spam some bolt spells of the element you want to use to charge it. Trinity staff basically turns your intermediate magics into a heat-buster playstyle, where you spam weak attacks for a bit, then unload a strong attack now and then. In my opinion, you're better off using an elemental wand if you plan to use a particular adv magic. The flexibility to use all three with the same weapon really isn't that flexible at all. I'd say Trinity staff's primary purpose is hailstorm currently, however whenever fire and lightning advanced magics are finally released, that flexibility will become incredibly important to a mage... staff is a must-get for any mage hybrid or not. It just won't be making your wands obsolete any time soon.

  Sad part is... This works even when they have PD.
  It's really brilliant if people are coordinated enough.

  
  
  Too many people in the game have no common sense when it comes to tactics. They just throw themselves and teammates thoughtlessly into the teeming mass of mobs. It's why I rarely enjoy partying with randoms. With some people, advanced and powerful techniques can be put to efficient use. There's dozens of things that, with a little coordination, parties can use to effectively decimate any opposition.

  The stage itself is relatively small. And no ice mines either. Otherwise, I would use ice golems to send suicidal stone golems to their death. >>

  What song is that in the video? o.o
  
  Also considering that the glory swords and dragon tooths have a chance of dropping in int theater missions, how difficult are those exactly?

  This, and you cannot use Blaze or Magic Bolt Combination with it.
  
  It's versatile, but in no way does its versatility make wand specialization any less useful.
