Earth Bolt is an earth-based bolt spell in the standard spellbook, requiring level 29 Magic to cast. As an offensive combat spell it can only be cast on attackable NPCs, or other players in a PvP situation.

Damage

Earth Bolt's base maximum hit starts at 11 and increases to 12 when the player unlocks Fire Bolt at level 35 Magic. Players who have completed the Family Crest quest can wear Chaos gauntlets to increase the maximum hit by an additional +3, up to 15.

Magic level	Highest-level bolt spell available	Earth Bolt base maximum hit	Earth Bolt maximum hit with Chaos gauntlets
29 - 34	Earth Bolt	11	14
35 +	Fire Bolt	12	15

As with all combat spells, Earth Bolt's maximum hit is also increased based on the player's magic damage bonus.

As an earth-based spell, Earth Bolt's maximum hit is also increased against targets that are weak to earth.
