The Kodai wand is a one-handed staff and the strongest wand in Old School RuneScape. Requiring 80 Magic to wield, it is able to autocast Ancient Magicks, standard spells, and Arceuus combat spells, and provides unlimited water runes when equipped.

When casting a water spell with both the Kodai wand and tome of water equipped, the accuracy and damage bonuses from the tome are used while also using soaked page charges.

Passive effect: The wand has a 15% chance of negating rune costs when casting an offensive spell.

The wand is created by using a Kodai insignia, obtained as a reward at the end of the Chambers of Xeric, on a master wand. When creating the wand, the chatbox will state Power shoots down the length of the wand, empowering it with the darkness of Xeric's Kodai wizards. This process cannot be reverted.
