Bolt spells are the second weakest elemental group of magic combat spells in the standard spellbook. Elemental staves can be used to cover the costs of these spells. These are free-to-play spells. Like all combat spells, each damage point caused by these spells yields 2 Magic experience and 1.33 Hitpoints experience.

Wearing Chaos gauntlets from the Family Crest quest (59 Magic icon Magic required) will increase the maximum damage of bolt spells by +3. This makes the spells almost as strong as the blast spells while having a much lower rune cost.
