My explanation for the defense of the wizard and archimage dragon wands:

I have an Archimage dragon wand, but I don't use it that much because I have a Big Buddy. People say these weapons are for complete noobs and it requires absolutely no skill whatsoever. I think that this is a good weapon and it has more purposes than camping. Why? First of all, since an update removed seeing the enemy's nametag(s) in team battles and deathmatches, so you will have to find them first. Second, the wizard wand, according to the wiki, has a .5 dispersion angle to the right(Archimage Dragon wand has a .45 dispersion angle to the right). It does not have complete accuracy and kills in 2-3 hits, which is why you need some skill for this. Plus, you can't hit enemies at close range, either.

Third, if you do find an enemy's nametag, you can't aim at it because it is not part of the player hitbox. You will have to aim below it. Now, I will talk about other uses. This wand, in my opinion, is designed for people who run out of ammo and don't want to use melee wapons. This weapon is also designed for when you are low in health and need to hide.

Ironically, this weapon is quite useful against snipers and campers, who like to stay in one place and kill all players in sight, taking as little damage as possible. try to get close to the enemy sniper/camper so you can see their nametag without getting into sight. A wall would be a good choice,(Obviously :P). Start firing below theeir nametag. This should cause them to move. A good instinct, but it messes up their attack pattern. Follow their nametag, and keep on firing below it. They should die in atleast 3 hits. If they have a prototype psr-1 though, they can still kill you if you are hiding behind a wall and your nametag is visible.

Like I said, this is good for players who run out of ammo, because they don't want to go too close to an attacking enemy. It is also good when you are extremely low on health and need to hide and attack your pursuers at the same time. Try to find their nametags, and if your lucky enough, you can kill them.

For people who complain about this weapon is for noobs, I have to say you are complainining too much. No offense, but your statements are biased and illogical. You can still kill a player with a wand. It would be hard, but possible. Try dodging the projectiles, get up close, and uase a fast weapon. This should help you kill snipers and campers too.

Case closed. Thank you.
