Spells: Mage Bolt Line

[Lasher]

can bolts get blocked by other players on red99? On live i think if you step in front of a bolt that wasnt intended for you, you got wtfnuked. Im remembering correctly right? I think the same thing happened with arrows

Both of these things happened.

Yes, however on live you couldn't outrun a bolt, but you could avoid it by dodging behind a tree or a hill, if you had time to do it, they travelled faster then bard max speed.

On live you could point your mage at something way off and cast bolt; it acted like a projectile and would hit if the bolt passed through whatever you were aimed at.

It also would get blocked by players. This is one of the main reasons mages used conjuration as their specialization because using bolts were useless most of the time. Nothing like sitting through a 8 second cast to have someone step in front of your bolt and eat it.
