Normally in Vanguard as a Sorcerer you can only land one spell at a time on a MOB or player. However, if you're like me, you've noticed that sometimes you can cast two spells consecutively that will land on the target at the same time. But it's totally random and caused by lag right?
Nope, there's a way to do this 100% of the time and all you need is a mount.
How To:
1. Start a good range from your desired target but not out of range of Taqmir�s Bolts
2. Summon mount
3. Cast a ranged direct damage spell that has a casting timer such as Taqmir�s Bolts or Flame Spear
4. As the cast bar gets near completion start spamming Taqmir�s Bolts again.
5. As you're casting your second spell, you'll notice that the first spell has not landed yet, no need to worry.
6. When the second spell finishes casting, both spells will fly towards their target, landing at the same time.
Result
When kiting during leveling, this can add a big punch to the start of your fight. This makes kiting more efficient.
Using Mount Double Casting Strategy in PvP Combat
The true advantage this offers, however, is in PvP combat. To optimize your advantage against hard targets, cast invisibility on yourself while mounted, then chose a target. Here's an example of how to use this effectively in PvP combat.
1. Summon mount and cast Invisibility on yourself
2. Choose a target
3. Cast Taqmir�s Bolts, Flame Spear or other direct damage, ranged spell with a casting timer
4. As the casting bar completes start spamming Taqmir�s Bolts
5. As both spells land run in and start casting instant spells such as Char, Energy Rift and Shocking Grasp
Result
When this strategy is used in PvP combat it can be devastating to your target. Most of the time they will die and give you their infamy and silver before they have a chance to even react.
Happy Pking
