Just to nitpick: Wand recharging is not really necessary with the crazy amount of wands you can find or buy, and kiting can be done with potions of haste/paws of the cheetah/the haste spell.
I would even say just shooting fireball/lightningbolt wands into the fog of war/out of line of sight is an even more effective way to kill scary enemies (which takes advantage of the AI but still)
But ultimately, as bad as abuse in the older games is/was, that is no reason to have it be a case in a game of this generation. It no longer has the AI limitations that were a thing 20 years ago, as well as having a more balanced ruleset to work with.
