Ranked! Most Powerful Wands in the Potter Universe
“I remember every wand I’ve ever sold, Mr Potter. Every single wand. It so happens that the phoenix whose tail feather is in your wand gave another feather- just one other. It is very curious indeed that you should be destined for this wand when its brother- why, its brother gave you that scar.”- Garrick Ollivander
In the wizarding world of Harry Potter, wands are the mightiest weapons of the individuals. The wands are utilized to attack and defend from foes. Furthermore, wands cannot be described merely as weapons because they are employed to carrying out several activities. As per Garrick Ollivander from the Harry Potter series who is a wand seller, wands are manufactured from various timber and a magical core. The combination of the wood and magical core influences the intensity of the wand. In this feature, let’s look at the most powerful wands and their owners.
The elder wand
Made from the wood of the Elder tree and core of Thestral tail hair, the elder wand is the most powerful wand from the Harry Potter universe. The elder wand can fix other wands and is destructive in the hands of its worthy master.
Professor Dumbledore’s wand
Well, the elder wand was in custody of Dumbledore, but before the elder wand, he had another wand. Not enough is known about that wand, but it is treated as a powerful wand. The reason is that the unknown wand of Dumbledore’s helped him defeat Grindelwald. At the time of that fight between the two, Grindelwald had the elder wand. In short, the unknown wand of Dumbledore defeated the elder wand.
Lord Voldemort’s wand

Harry Potter’s wand
As cited above, Harry’s wand is a twin of Voldemort’s wand and hence, it offers the same power. However, it is Harry’s positive personality which strengthens his wand than Lord Voldemort’s.
Bellatrix Lestrange’s wand
Known as the “unyielding”, the wand of Bellatrix is prepared of walnut and a dragon heartstring core. Bellatrix is not a strong witch, but her wand is dominant because she is full of ill and negative notions.
