Bolt spell graphic

[Arclanz]

firebolt and frostbolt were the coolest particle effects in the game IMO. I used to love to use it on pvp servers because in nektulos forest you could be out of visual range and still hit the target (provided a tree or mob wasn't in the way). The de-leveled pricks used to get furious at my fireballz hahaha [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yes archery was line of sight, too. I think even in Kunark it was LOS cuz I remember a ranger in karnor's complaining for us to move out of the way so he could get a shot.

Damn, well if they bring bolts back in all their classic glory (especially with the same untargetted behavior), then I'm rolling my first wizard the same day.

EDIT: and I'll also start wearing my "I Love Haynar!" t-shirt.

Actually, if you were on a hill and fired a bolt at a mob below, you would often get a double hit. Now that was some great dps. To bad they fixed that bug.

This is true. They didnt fix this until luclin/pop, if it was indeed a fix. I thought because it could be blocked by anything in the way it made up for it if you hit them from above. Also, the graphic was awesome.

Mages are lame without this.

Bumping this one. On my magician when casting a bolt I have a tiny spark flying between the mob and me. Is there any plan to bring back the big fireballs weused to have on Live?
