Bolt of Fire is a level 6 Conjurations/Fire Magic Bolt spell capable of striking multiple targets along its path, doing a considerable amount of fire damage. Damage and accuracy are both determined by spell power. It is more or less the exact analogue of Bolt of Cold, with the same damage potential and accuracy, though with slightly greater range.
You can get a similar effect through use of a wand of fire.
Strategy
Although Bolt of Fire has excellent range, bear in mind that each target it strikes reduces its max range by 1. When attempting to snipe a distant foe, consider adjusting your aim to avoid the fodder in between.
Along with its purely offensive uses, Bolt of Fire is useful for creating clouds of steam. Each tile of shallow water or deep water your Bolt of Fire crosses generates 2-6 clouds, potentially blocking dangerous enemies from being able to see you. Bolts of Fire can also be used to destroy freezing clouds, though each cloud destroyed this way reduces the bolt's range by 5.
