Bolt of Magma is a level 5 Conjurations/Fire Magic/Earth Magic spell which deals respectable fire/physical damage to an enemy within 5 tiles. It loses one square of range each time it hits a monster.

Damage = 4d(3.75 + power*3/20). Only 55% of this damage is resistible.

Strategy

Bolt of Magma has a short range as far as Conjurations go, and it requires three magic schools to cast, making it difficult to attain max power. On the plus side, as a level 5 spell it's easier to remove its hunger cost than some of the more powerful bolt spells (Bolt of Fire or Bolt of Cold), although a staff of energy levels the playing field there. It's also still effective against monsters resistant to fire due to its Earth Magic component, making it somewhat more versatile.
