Fire Bolt

Required level 1FireClassic

What it does

creates a magical flaming missile.

How Fire Bolt works, in depthThe Sorceress's first fire missile. Its damage at every level and the brackets it grows by, why it costs 2.5 mana at any level, what Fire Ball and Meteor hard points add to it, and when it out-damages Fire Ball.
