as far as i know from my playing a runecarving runie since start of retail...there hasnt ever been a time when the bolts definately dont hit...think its just unlikely to or a reduced chance? :s i dunno as i not properly rvr'd with runie in many months but thats as far as i know.

there is a chance of not getting hit.
don't know what the % is. i have a lvl50 RC rm and i do hit with bolts when enemy is under attack.

but sometimes if our skald is doing an eyeblink my bolts miss cause target is in combat

If target gets stunned or mezzed when in combat the bolts will hit other time i have found i can bolt ppl hitting other ppl and they will *sometimes* hit. As Dagger said doesnt seem to be a set rule for when they do and dont when your getting hit.

I find it rather fuzzy when the bolts will hit or not.
even ranged combat can make bolts miss, but afaik there is always a chance that the bolts will hit or miss.
atleast i've never singled out a situation where the bolts will always hit or miss

it seems pretty random if you get the "target is in combat"

sometimes you can hit both even on a target obviously in combat, other times, you cant hit with either bolts.

If a character is in combat the bolt will miss everytime, since the server has registered the hit and brings in the combat key preventing bolting, however if you begin to cast just as the skald in the this case begins to swing the bolt will hit everytime and its not just on a necro pet, this will hit on everyone.

this is not true, even when a character is in combat i've landed several bolts.

hence 'everytime' in this case is wrong

you can speak of reduced likelyhood to hit yes. but everytime is a lie
