The blasts consist of twin rays of light that will only reach approximately one half of the screen. Their fast speed allows them to manifest damage on ranged targets very quickly, while aiming is not as easy to do. The blasts damage is composed of physical damage and magical damage, with slightly more magical damgage. 11 physical/14 magical at first level of rune read.

Ebolts damage is calculated at time of casting, changing weapon slots after the Combat Art has been activated will not affect the damage of the Energy Bolts.
