    I play a wizard, but like to use wands in tight combat because it doesn't take casting time and there's no chance for interruption or failure. I've been creating the wands I use most, like fireballs etc, but when I try to create one with Cone of ice, I get a message that I can't use over 4th level spells.

    Is this tied to my caster class, (so I can create better wands as I advance), or is it a permanent level on wand creating? I'm caster class 6 or 7 I think.

    I believe that it's an intentional limitation for the sake of game balance.

    Level 4 is the maximum allowed for wands, level 3 for potions. Scrolls are not capped. Still, there will be some spells that you cannot cast into wands, potions or scrolls.

    Also, your caster level has no influence on the potency or duration of the spell imbued in the wand, scroll or potion. A fireball wand created by a level 10 wizard is as powerful as one created by a level 20 wizard.

    I would heartily recommend my wondrous Arcane Crafting Book, which you can find here at SP, as a handy reference for your arcane crafting needs.
