So I was reading maplestorys official site and it said something about the elemental wand needing a holy element to use holy skills... Anyone know how to get this element?

It meant to say using a weapon that doesn't null the holy element: All wands and staves besides Elementals. Hope that clears it up for you.

I think you read how the Elemental Weapons, when used by holy-magic users (a.k.a. Bishops), receive a damage reduction, just like Arch Mages of the wrong element.

This sucks I think the majority of us bishops can agree on that. However, the good news is that Horntail Pendants can now be scrolled to 52 stats each which means it's now possible for lukless bishops to equip doomsday staffs. This might not be the exact same as it was with elewands but with vicious hammering your items then the difference should only be 15-20 magic attack, generally.

The good ol basil days where the bishops fought the AM's that the penalty would come...tisk tisk. I guess that's how the cookie crumbles ^^

You can't blame bishops for thinking the reduction wouldn't ever come, Nexon did even state in a ticket that the wands were working as intended.
