    That is such a dumb suggestion that I can only marvel in awe that you're able to type on a computer and thank god that you're not part of the development team.

    Like is said in the other whine post. Sure make it cost 33% of magicka but you have to extend the range from 15m to 50m to make it usable.

    Just an idea...

    Make Bolt Escape an AE target spell that requires a left mouse click placement to cast.

    This would cut down on its spammability while also giving more utility to intelligent sorcs who aren't just trying to run for the hills. A smart sorc with enough skill and reflex could teleport to a strategic position to avoid damage, while a bad player just mindlessly spamming it would have to adjust their cursor and place the targeted area for multiple casts.

    Rewards skill with more utility and cuts down on spam.

    What are your guys' thoughts?

    That there is no need to change this ability in any way. This suggestion doesnt require more skill than it already has before. And that everything to this topic has already been said. It is an escape ability for the sole purpose (unmorphed) to e s c a p e.

    What is your problem if you dont get your kill anyways? Why dont you simply say 'goodbye' it if somoene manages to get away? Is this really so hard to accept? You know what I find OP and pretty much a no-skiller is if someone pop out of nowhere and kill me in stun. Do I complain? No. I try to adapt and ajust my playstile.

    How about they change it like this:

    Bolt Escape

    1200 Magicka

    Instantly lose 3000 health, magicka and stamina. Then teleport 2 meters forward.

    I finally figured out what we are missing. Power pills! That would help us counter the bolt escape!

    Post of the month, IMO.

    Something being unbalanced in 1v1 does not imply that it is balanced in group play.
